Ok, found one more of this star in the tank. This one has 4 shorter legs...does that mean 4 new stars are growing in the tank? Seriously thinking of getting Harlequin Shrimps to prevent an outbreak of Asterina stars. But feeding the shrimps can be a headache itself...hmm...

Haha I juz add mine to my son's fish only tank. Now I know why one of my zoa colony suddenly reside so fast. Now I worry I got more in the tank...

It's quite small actually. Around 1.9cm one end to another.

Ok, thanks. I'll bring it home then.

Found this hitchhiker in my tank today. After looking through the ID record, it looks like a Asterina star that might be harmful to corals. If harmful, I definitely won't want it to be in the main tank. I'm really bad at ID'ing stuff. So need experts here to help me confirm what star is this. If this star is indeed harmful to coral, is it then safe to keep it in fish-only tank (I have a fish-only nano at home)?

Thanks bro wilson. I'll contact bro snowman since he is nearer.

Hi there, anyone have any chaeto to spare or for sale in the north (Bishan, AMK, Yishun/Woodlands)?

Thanks for the advice. Btw, how come your website doesn't allow me to enter without upgrading my IE? My IE version is determined by my company leh. I cannot upgrade on my own.

Juz googled and find that my snails look like "Super Tongan Nassarius Snail" though the shell color seems different. So I guess they are the ones who laid the eggs.

Is this nassarius snails? Sorry for the lousy pic. My phone camera not fast enough to capture this fast moving snail. lol

Hi bro/sis, found a few patches of egg like thing on my tank glass. Anyone can advise what are they? Looks like tiny eggs to me...snail eggs?

And the ric has completed its split into two. Currently, I see one of them already have 3 mouths and seems to be splitting (edge of coral closing into the middle). Heehee...one into two, two into four...sounds like Taiji logic.

For the benefit of bros who advised me previously, here's an update on my yumas and rics. Yumas are now back to the color n size I had previously (I still like luminous color though ).

Yeah, luv them. so is it ok I put glue at the base of the polyp? Won't kill it, right?

Hi Aloysius, Here's a pic of the frag in my tank now. Sorry for the lousy pic (phone camera). At the sandbed for the time being...still thinking where to relocate it to... One question. The center part of the frag still ok. But the edge polyps are all quite loose and quite a few of them have dropped off. Is this something of concern? Cheers, Lawrence

Thanks cedric. PM'ed wilson.

Hi bro n sis, I would like to get one or two zoa frags (maybe 2 or 3....or 3 or 4 frags...) to make my tank more colorful. I have enough of pink and green ones. So not getting those colors. If you're selling frags, please post your pic, price and location here. I'll contact you asap. Thank you.

The animal world is so interesting. Cool bro, I'll just let it be then.

Rics with 2-3 mouths o? haha...greedy fellow. Okie, so long as it is normal, then it is fine wif me. At first scared it wanna split but cannot succeed and goes into 'labour difficulty' and die. Thanks for all the advice. I've moved the yumas further away from light and monitor from there. The pale luminous color looks quite nice actually. I'm just concerned with the shrink in size.

Sorry, one more question. I had this yuma rock last yr. When first got it, it looked like this: Then last Feb, it still looked not too bad...(rics still one piece) But now it look like this...look bleached and so much smaller.. I suspect might be due to me changing the light last month to a Maxspect 60W (from T5 32W). Do you think it's the cause too? Or there could be other reason?

Hi there, I have a Rics that is in the process of splitting. So I'm curious to know generally how long they take to complete the process. Mine seems to be splitting for weeks. Only past two weeks I saw an acceleration in the speed for the two mouths to move apart. But never split into two yet. Is it because I gave it too little rock space?

May I know why put that acrylic? to prevent water splash onto light set? Trying to find his thread...is it in this section too?

I can't hang the light. Dun think my company will allow me drilling holes onto their ceiling...My tank is reinforced with side braces. I'm thinking probably can put there. If I do so, distance between light n water surface will be ard 2-3cm only. Will it be too close? My tank height is 1.5ft too. Btw, besides Iwarna & DELighting, anywhere else sell this light?

Thanks Jacky. Stupid me, never thought of looking there. wah the width juz nice fit. but with the holding brackets in, cannot fit liao...unless like u, remove the brackets.

Hi bros, may I know the width of the 110W light set? Not sure if I can install for my 1.5ft. got a OHF on top so not much space left...
