Like full name and brand so that I can look for it too... no point having nice corals, quality water... and in the end they die of hunger, lol. Okaie... I mix my own frozen food for the fishes, i also added aquaz phytoplankton, aquaz golden pearl in to it... So the coral will be fed too... You can try these golden pearl too if you have not...

Terryz_ Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 I would not worry about the rhodactis, but the seafan and cloves... If these brown algae grow over the seafan and the cloves, they will be affected... As in they will not be able to open... Quote Member of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these brown algae grow over the seafan and the cloves, they will be affected... As in they will not be able to open... Oh yeah I notice there are some algae growing very near to the cloves... even up their tube. I will have to relook/focus on my water quality asap as I don't think the cleaning crews can remove the algaes from the clove tubes. Actually, I notice the algae bloom is not as bad as last week. It's under control now... just a bit here and there. Will update you guys on this...

jervismun Posted March 17, 2006 Author Share Posted March 17, 2006 Revealing the side view of my tank... for the first time... the Sunburst Anthia is still not eating (at least not in front of me) but its tummy doesn't look empty to me... perhaps it manages to find some natural food source within the reef. I really hope it will survive as it is a true beauty... although a very shy one.

jervismun Posted March 17, 2006 Author Share Posted March 17, 2006 This Frogspawn is now my personal favourite... it opens up so beautifully, giving me much needed encouragement and motivation... at least I know it is settling fine Quote Tank 60x40x40 Optiwhite Glass Tank Sump Elos 500 w/ Tunze Overflow Protein Skimmer Skimz Kone SK1 Return Pump Hydor Seltz L30 Wavemaker Hydor K1 Illumination 150W + 2 T5 Chiller Arctica 1/5hp w/ Aquabee 1000 Water Top-up Tunze Osmolator Dosing Pumps Grotech 3-Channels Calcium Reactor Deltec PF 501 Computer Aquatronica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jervismun Posted March 17, 2006 Author Share Posted March 17, 2006 Oh, i bought the Aquaz phytoplanton....how much do you dose that and how frequent? Looks pretty potent to me.... Yes it is very potent. Just a tiny bit (about 1/15 of a teaspoon) will do. Mix with your tank water... I also bought Argent Cyclop-eeze from AM just now... my Chromis love it so much! It smells very tasty to me, yum yum! It's very fine (red colour like chilli powder) so my corals can benefit from it too.

jervismun Posted March 17, 2006 Author Share Posted March 17, 2006 What colour are your hammers? Looks real small and cute....im in love with them.... My Hammer is brownish in colour with a bit of green at the tip. It is still not opening fully coz it falls off the LR all the time. The branch is quite hard to position and my hermit and snails must have bulldozed over it all the time. Will post a picture when it fully opens.

Btw, do you off your skimmer and filter when you dose? Yes I off my protein skimmer, my filter and my stock pump. Just the wave maker remains... good enough to circulate the tiny food/pellets round and round the tank for every coral! I will switch back on everything around 10 minutes later.
