jeeeze everything doubled since last time iv seen it- everything looks happy and glowing like crazy.i like the half hour that my tank sees the sunlight and i get alittle shimmer on the bottom just wish the whole tank shimmered lol : )

if your local to steve at aqua oceans i remember i bought a large silver bag filled with nori the thing is packed with sheets and was probably only 15 or 17 i cant recall.

there are so many different morphs of zoas it amazes me.

they would be some sort of radioactive dragon eye or what not.

yeah unfortunately i love higher k bulbs i would have to have like 4 actinic bulbs under the hood with 65ks to get it looking any where nice for my liking.

for the t-5 i have 6 54 watt so its around 350 watts im not to sure if 175's would be strong enough but the 250 would be over kill cause it would be 500 watts.

yes good idea i wish metal halides wernt expensive to run i just want the shimmer but im stuck with t-5 cause its cheaper then running 2 250's

love the tank cant wait to see it some day- seems like you made it over to here very easily- you thinking of going all t-5?

the little specs are smaller then grains of sand and they arent flat looking that i think you have nothing to worry about- they are probably some sort of pod.gl with the picture taking

tiny pods- if you have a sand sifter or a mandarine they will eat the right up and you wont see much of them anymore lol.

once and awhile i get a few of them sometimes the snails will do it to-if i pull them off they go right back so just leave them.

that looks like the ora's hyacinths birdnest to me- would be easier to tell if it was a little older -it looks like its going to explode with hundreds of branches any day now greg its gonna be beautiful. Is that under the t-5 lighting?

very nice- the second one down is probably one of my favorite zoas

yeap figured out it had to be the trace elements or something was in the water that shouldnt be there- after doing 12 gallon weekly waterchanges everything poped back but this week i couldn't do a water-change- lots of stuff happening and the tank needs to run on its own for a week- you think...

coraline algea is kind of like corals- they need strong but to mcuh will cause it to bleach- i think a metal halides spectrum helps the coraline grow - while the t-5s just puts out to much of somesort of light that they dont like- in my caves theres coraline growing but what ever light hits is...

very nice i tip my hat to you- i wouldn't be able to settle with a bio cube or a small tank- even though my 75 gallon is to small for me already-

yeap the lights are whats contributing to the coraline growth- i used to have 15k 250watt metal halides then i move the rocks to a t-5 tank and all the coral bleached- if i throw the rock in the sump with a compact fluorescence bulb it will color back up or leave the rok in some sold saltwater...

what size tank and what kind of setup do you have ? talking will help your post get up so you can pm.

you need to have more posts- posts in the for sale thread dont count.

such a nice tank man cant wait till it gets decorated :)
