The blue mushies are from JM...$35 per rock (5 months with me liao). Initially, purple...because of pro-long T5 lighting, they became blue.

So far, that maroon clown is doing alright...not that aggressive. If you want, you can have it, FOC. Colour is dark red.

u stay west area arh else u buy from ah beng mayb 20+ only..

cyno algae or red carpet/slime algae grow in low or zero flow area but rich nutrients water..

some times if ur tank if over nutrient u can tell from a stangnant flow area growing cyno...

no nid to test water parameters..

jsut give them more flow.

in ur case ur lobo is already stress up dun give it too much flow..

give a flow generally if u put something on its mouth wun fly away..

try to remove e cyno with a pincer do it very carefully avoid breaking its skeleton..

but of cus nt always we have a chance to get a spot in e tank with appropriate flow for everything..

:rolleyes:

hey bro u might wanna b careful for e echianpillya coral not relly easy to look after

u nid to blast it with strong lights n amino proteins for it to grow best..

it will feed on its mouth for small food..

2 HO T5 enough? Coz i read from Advanced Aquarist online, saying low lights under T5 or PL also can or under indirect MH

...i m feeding them with rotifer n kent marine phytoplankton..are these enough or suitable too?

If not i will get Coralife coral food to target feed?

Do you use Chiller? I'm wondering if I can hook my chiller to my canister's output.

Your acan looks like a blob of intestines... ^_^

I dun use chiller...

I think you can connect yr o/p from yr cannister to the chiller...just thinking, not too sure abt that.

Thanks for yr comment on my acan..i take it as a compliment...interesting colony of acan...not exactly exotic, but easy to take care. :D
