FlCandy Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 The Bleached Rock Flower is looking good! Link to comment
gena Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 The rock flowers are looking beautiful! I love that picture of them with the red mushroom Link to comment
HVani Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 These pictures don't do these zoas justice at all. The new ones are the pale orange ones in the middle New rics the green one I already had I just moved it, the frag on the far left is my maze coral frag. I'm do disappointed in this one War Coral, this thing is awesome and seems to be the only thing that can harm xenia lol Link to comment
gena Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I've always loved the looks of the war coral! Everything looks fantastic!!!! Link to comment
HVani Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 I removed some xenia so I had a very nice place for it. The war coral looks awesome and I can't wait till it starts incrusting over the rocks. I've really become a fan of LPS lately. My Pink Pocillopora is looking meh and I'm really not worried about it. I don't think SPS are my thing Link to comment
HVani Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Some of the tips are turning white and loosing flesh. The xenia is all around it and I think it's irritating it. It seems to be only where the xenia is touching it. Link to comment
gena Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 That's a bummer! I hope my xenia behaves in my tank Link to comment
FlCandy Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 That sucks! Mine behaves because its neighbors are palythoas. Link to comment
HVani Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Yeah it's weird because xenia doesn't sting. Maybe it's blocking the light or something. No biggie. Link to comment
gena Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I didn't think xenia was a stinging coral!!!! It hasn't bothered any of it's neighbors in my tank at all. Must be the lighting. Or maybe it stinks to the other coral too Stinky stuff!!!!! Link to comment
HVani Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Lol who knows. I did a xenia trim the other day and that's when I noticed the damage to the SPS. Link to comment
HVani Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 Whew busy weekend and week! Updates on the Reef: Porcelain crab disappeared over the weekend. I found some "crab parts" around the tank but they all looked hollow so I hoped it was just a molt. Haven't seen him since. A few weeks ago I moved my frogspawn onto the sandbed to make room for my war coral. Well my new rics keep wanting to snuggle with it so I moved it again to the top. Now I have a very small ric carpet going Tonight I am picking on a green maze coral locally to make up for the ugly brown one SaltCritters sent me. LFS did not get red scooter blennies in again Ordered my RO/DI unit finally along with some other needed stuff. It's way more fun to spend money on corals and fish Nems all look great Link to comment
gena Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I noticed you've been kinda quiet lately! Sounds like a pretty good update I agree, it's more fun to get critters and coral than equipment! Link to comment
banshee Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I don't know! I keep thinking about my next set up and drooling over all the fun equipment, lights, and such that I can play with! Link to comment
gena Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Looks great!!!! I love the balance you have in your tank. Link to comment
HVani Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Just ordered a female red scooter blenny that is eating frozen from Diver's den. Also order a blue headed combtooth blenny, I can't believe how much I just spent but it is WYSIWYG, the fish are disease free, already QTed and eating. WIll be here Tuesday Link to comment
gena Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 That's awesome!!! I'm going to go look up the combtooth blenny. I'm not familiar with them. Just looked it up...what color did you get????? edit: duh...just saw a blue-headed I'm tired They are very pretty!!!!! Link to comment
HVani Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Here are the pictures form Diver's Den. The blenny isn't the best looking one I have seen but it seems really young. Hopefully with good food and water it will color up more. Blue combtooth blenny is LAs name for blue and gold blenny or what Blue Zoo call dusky yellow streaked blenny. With all the names it took me forever to find info on them! Link to comment
gena Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 They are both adorable! Congrats Link to comment
HVani Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Thanks! I love him though the female is so mean to him RO/DI unit should arrive today! Evidently Bulk Reef Supply is in Minnesota so 1 day ground shipping! EDIT: It's here! Link to comment
