Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Xenia and star polyps can out grow other corals and drown them. Your option is to take some out or let it grow but in the end you might have 10g full of xenia.
With the 60 your stand will be 2x2 so you will probably have to get a custom sump made to fit what you need to in there. I know PaulM just had one made for the same size so you might want to drop him a line. When I had the 45g which is the same dimensions, it was cramped. I had the sump on...
