I have a 3" green bubble that is on the bottom. I keep it under T5 lights with no problem. I rarely target feed it and it's doing well, just slow growing. I target feed it more I am sure it would grow easily.

I can bring a 4/5 head candy cane. They seem to be doing better.

My system evaporates about 1.5 gallons a day also. I did notice that most of it happens at night while I am a sleep. I assume it's because the heat is going more at night than the day. I keep the cabinet doors open to get more air and it helps a little. I have no fan either.

How is the flow on the coral? They don't like to be blasted. The other thing is what fish are you keeping? I had a dwarf Keyhole angel that picked on everything. Once I removed it my corals came back. Yes, it picked at a hammer and frogspawn killing both. The above causes the coral to close and...

I have the same problem for 1.5 years now. I'll be watching this thread for an answer. In the meantime do what did; told the wife to sit in another room.

Just curious if anyone ever keep a Lemon Peel Angel in a reef setup? From what I recently read opinions vary. In a reef with caution to not reef safe because they like to nip at LPS, some softies, zoas and clam mantles.

Mine jumped out about 4 feet away from the tank. Didn't know until I stepped on it. I have a cover now but don't keep them although they are nice fish.

I have seen something similar in my setup. The problem was the in sump skimmer wasn't functioning properly and some foam did appear in the sump. However, not that much.

I have it too and was told it's a type of sponge.

That stinks. I was just at PetsMart and didn't see anything like that; not even a coral dip. Try Pets Plus in Airport Plaza. If not guess you'll need a trip to AqOb or Trop.

Jay, Definitely a water problem. I did a 5gallon tap water change yesterday and add 3 gallons of RO top off. I also added 3ml of Reef Plus. Today the big piece under the light is looking better and other heads started to pop out. Was holding off because I can't make RO in the winter, outside...

K2's pump 600gph. I had 2 K4's in my 75g with mainly softies and it was way to much flow. I now have two K3's and it is much better.

I agree. Seems the ones on the bottom center facing up are doing better. The ones on the side not so well even though they are facing up; just getting less light. I was also told to check magnesium level.

I feed mine every couple weeks with a turkey baster. I feed it brine, mysis, mixed with spirulina. The power heads are positioned well so it blows food over most of the LPS corals so spot feeding isn't needed. I have seen baby polyps growing out of it recently.

Jay, What I have read and was told is that dried Nori has more nutritional value than fresh romain. lettuce. Some where on the web there was an article that broke it down. Mark

I have had this for about 2 weeks now. When I first put it in I could see feeder tentavles extending at nigh but not much any more. Also the heads were some what with drawn and starting to expand but that also stopped. I moved them to different parts of the tank to have less flow and some more...

Roy, What temperature is the water at when you are mixing 3 cups of IO salt to 5 gallons of water? Mark

That slicer takes me back. My aunt and uncle had one that always was out on the counter. They would but the cheese and cold cuts whole and slice whatever you wanted when you would visit.

I used a turkey baster. I mixed ice with the salt water to make it cool, not cold. I would then put the rock upside with nem in the water. I would then blow the cool water on the foot and it eventually released. I would take one off you hand but you'er to far.

I have a very large CBS for over a year nad never saw it snack on of my corals. Including hammer, torch, frogspwan, bubble, etc. Could have been trying to get somen food out the coral and snipped a piece by accident. Mine feeds on anything I put in the tank such as frozen mysis, brine, etc.
