I setup a Red Sea Reefer 170 about 2 months ago and plan for LPS and flower nems. I finally got a chance to take a few pics of the nems. Hope you enjoy

Beautiful photos Mike! Can't wait to see a full tank shot. I know you have a natural talent for scaping

A big thank to [MENTION=44]organism[/MENTION] for helping me understand Flower nems. And a big thanks to [MENTION=2872]sonnus[/MENTION] for hooking me up with a great price on the tank.
A little bit about the system.
It's a RedSea Reefer 170 with Apex controls and 2 MP10s for flow. I also have a Bubble Magus A5 skimmer along with ~20lbs of rock and 1.5 liters of 25mm siporax. Tank is lit by an Radion XR15.

Here are a few more pics. I'm still working on a decent FTS but I'll post one once I do get one.

Dang you have some very nice looking Nems. I've been wanting to try getting some but just scared of them moving and stinging or getting stung. Do you have that problem ?

Flower nems don't move much if at all. If you place them in a turbo snail shell, pvc end cap, or similar they will be there for life most likely.
