SRC Member Ancelot Posted March 20, 2006 SRC Member Share Posted March 20, 2006 No lah! Those dark patches are actually the glass bottom. I was telling you guys how clean my back is, lol. The filter inlets are ###### everything nicely... especially the ReefPack 500. If needed, I can always add a small Tunze powerhead down there. Ooo! Oops! Sorry dude. My mistake. THATS WHY I have my glasses on all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've came across this behaviour more than twice today... oh my poor Sea Fan Hmm.. Its not the first time you reported having such a sighting. I think your blue tang is hungry. And no. It's not making a meal out of your sea fan. But it is gonna stress it in a way. What I think is, I think he is trying to eat the food that are left inside the polyps of the sea fan. Thats why he is pecking non stop. BUT Its a bad action. Shld stop someway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted March 20, 2006 Author Share Posted March 20, 2006 Passed by RB after work and can't resist the temptation of getting another piece of coral... Orange Spotted Ricordea Mushroom (Ricordea yuma) http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/prod_di...pcatid=2081&N=0 According to Liveaquaria "This type of mushroom is highly prized by the avid collector and makes a vibrant addition to the reef aquarium. Collected in small numbers, this coral is in very high demand by the discriminating reef aquarist"... Just finish acclimatization not too long ago... allow them (2 shrooms in a single rock... lucky me) a bit more time to settle down.

jervismun Posted March 20, 2006 Author Share Posted March 20, 2006 Emm... could this be a hairy mushroom instead of a yuma?

Terryz_ Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 It is a Yumas... Again the glowing is due to the lighting they use... Can be misleading as in what is the original color under white lighting... Quote Member of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the ID (confirmation)... yeah such a sad situation... all my corals are kinda brownish under the single 14000ºK MH except the Croceas Will definitely plan some Atinics into my future tank Go check out Elimmel's tank!!!

If it from the mouth at the center for yumas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jervismun Posted March 21, 2006 Author Share Posted March 21, 2006 Something isn't right with the Toadstool Leather... the tiny tentacles are all closed the whole day and there's a layer of glossiness on it (visible on the upper right corner in the pix).

Should I wait and see? Or something bad is happening? It's normal for leather corals to produce a mucus slough. It does this to remove detritus that has built up on it. The sloughs can be unsightly though. Quote Always something more important than fish. http://reefbuilders.com/2012/03/08/sps-pico-reef/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
