You may have had them but seems to be two versions. Some are little, like the thickness of Sea urchin needles, the others.muxh thicker. Both pit out a mucus thread like netting when food or suspended material is in the water column. This mucus is what causes he coral irritation. I personally...

3-4 days. I check on my skimmer around that time as well to empty so all is good.

Yes. That was a huge day of raffles. Won one of Ray's anemone, the duncan colony, a Battle Coral Seasons Greetings, a small Jason Fox burning banana, OH and one of Marcus' Corky Gorgonia. While they havent grown as awesome as his are in his tank, They have attached to the rockwork and are part...

Did my 30 gallon water change and tested. SG - 1.026 Alkalinity - 8.8 dKh Calcium 450 ppm Magnesium 1300 ppm Like I said, next I will start managing my Phosphates and Nitrates more closely. But everything looks good, and have visible growth, so I am happy. Current Display... Love the duncan...

I was using Reef Crystals and testing with an older Hanna tester. Kept saying I was a little below 8, so was dosing. During BRS fan appreciation week at Thanksgiving I bought a NEW Hanna Tester. Came and tested my display. 16.2dkh. Ahhhhhh SO did a 30 gallon change with fresh salt. 15.8. Another...

RIGHT there with you Foxchase. I have to doze 7ml a day to maintain 8.8. BUT in a week that created a seesaw, so rather dose. And my corals thank me! I guess its the same for us. Sure you could have one huge meal on Sunday. And eat enough to survive the rest of the week, but having 3 smaller...

Is that one from the February meeting in the snow. He had a Clam Fest. Everyone got one that day. I felt left out and traded for one a couple days later it was basically dead when I got it. Not pearl white.

Amazing Overgrown mess. Very cool. Seems like you are down south. Would like to try the Blue Hawkins. Where are you located?

If I had a beach house, I would certainly invest in a long hose and pump instead of paying a premium for clean boxed salt. BUT just the drive to pick up said salt would make it less practical for me. The other thing is if I needed to do a large water change, maybe that drive is not possible...

I havent seen my coral banded shrimp in a while which is kinda crazy cause he was HUGE. But have noticed more and more bristle worms. I may go see if I see him now. Did have him for a few years. May have just been his time. Than again, I have a harlequinn I wanted to add but was afraid he would...

They often do the foot drag to leave babies, so basically by cutting a small piece, you speed the process.

people always talk bad about aiptasia. They are relatively easy to treat, and lots of options. My PEST chart: Toughest to easiest time I had: #1The Vermatid Snails (Ongoing), Montipora Nudis- (LOTS of dipping and dipping and scrubbing- Arrrr), and #3. Bristle worms (Ongoing), #4. Asterina (my...

I had seen someone take a shrimp or something and wrapped in a netting material and all the bristle worms came out to feed on it and they just pulled the entire net out with tons of worms caught in and on the betting.

How big was the Monti when you started it? Can only be a couple years old.

If you wanna try anything, if you have alot of exposed foot, you can try just running a razor base or scalpel through that to create a separation. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2019173

This was the day I dropped them in the box as they dettached because I changed my ALK to 8.8dLH from alot higher. The mother stayed attached and has returned to her former glory+, the babies do not like the bright light and are less happy/ I will be fashioning a container to place them at the...

This is the Mama NFS. Have 3 babies available. They were much fuller a few weeks back, but I have them in a placstic hang on box as I was rearranging things.

I AGREE! ASK ME HOW I KNOW! Had a GORGEOUS Jawbreaker with one side an awesome pattern. Tried my luck, and split in two. The awesome pattern side melted. the plain side hung on for a while before vanishing... On a side note I have several. Let me use my phone and post a few shots.

*I have a similar one to Hockeynut's, was an add in on a purchase of a Gold Hammer. 2 weeks, finally opening a little. In a lower flow area. May try moving soon.
