Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Yes. Peppermint shrimp are sometimes good aiptasia eaters. Hit or miss from everyone I speak with. File fish, banded butterfly fish and Berghia Nudibranch are also used as aiptasia/majano anemone control.
How did the transfer go?
Your event did make me consider my actions if something went bad... I have plenty of options but nothing that I could quickly or easily set up. So will be working to remedy that shortly.
I have a 210 Oceanic. Well made. Does have the thick eurobrace(glass middle top) which is a pain, but does offer more support.
I have had other large store bopught tanks...aqueon marineland and materials are not as good quality.
I have them in a cross flow area. Obviously not changing the pink location as it feeds well with coral candy or other and is getting growth. S[ril will be two years with the pink.
May try putting the green in a calmer area next. see how it responds.
I have a pink Goniopora that I have had for a year and a half. Initially I had some receeding but since then I have actually had not only polyp multiplication but I can clearly see the flower pot base has grown. I picked up a smaller(mini) neon green goniopora and placed it in a similar spot...
You can drain the tank down on a water change day and use a kit to polish the area. Only word of caution performing scratch removal on a full or partially full tank is if you use a power tool and the glass became too hot it could break. There are you tube videos on doing a partially full tank...
I was thinking the same thing. A day or two then into the salt after a shower didn't seem right. Did one piece for a week in 10% bleach. Soaked overnight with pumps on in fresh, then let air dry for a few weeks before I started the salt curing.
