Mind sharing how u got the green star poly to grow on the wall on tank? U stuck it on initially? Ty

hi Gerald and Sherman, no worries. Basically I just bought a rock of green star polyps and lean the part with the tissue against the glass. After that, nature should take over and slowly grow on the glass. Important thing to note is ensure healthy living star polyp tissue is touching the glass. All the best!

haha. True. Maybe the hermit is also saying "finally got astrea snail shipment"!!

I'm not too sure how it compares to turbo snails but have always heard that they are good algae eaters.

Decided to get 2 new toys this weekend. One of which is a second hand wp25 wavemaker to create my flow in more and more dead spots.

Very impressed and value for money. Only unfortunate thing is that it is not as sleek as the vortech and now my tank looks like there is an underwater camera. The waves generated is awesome though.

Which brings me to a second new toy which is a mobile phone. Can't seem to get the correct coloration on the pictures now. post-600-14082011415113_thumb.jpgpost-600-14082011741051_thumb.jpg

A rather awkward placement of the wp25 as the supposed dry side of the magnet is submerged in the external overflow. Hopefully the effort will be beneficial though.

Already broke my mantra of fixing things when it's not broken. Hand itchy today. chamber.post-600-14082014472915_thumb.jpg
