    Now I'm debating what to do.... GSP grow quick... so maybe I can keep them for Mithrax food in parallel with the other stuff (Valonias and GHA)... so they don't decide to eat other soft corals like the Zoas and Palithoa...

    I was thinking of moving the GSP to my new quarantine tank, but, with the lights off that tank is averaging 27.5C ...
