Demartini!!! Welcome Back! Nice to see you around here again! Thanks for the compliments! :D When they get larger and I start fragging, you'll get some :wub::flower::happy:

Well, I went to Eagle Reef Systems today, and all I can say is wow! They are the cleanest reef shop I have ever been to! Needreefunds, you need to go there ASAP! They are on the smaller side, but every tank is bursting with coral, a lot of it nano sized. Every piece of coral I saw was very healthy... + quick, knowledgable staff. And if anyone is interested in a picaso clown, they have one. Will post pics soon... uploading...

Excellent! Will try and check it out during the week. Just checked out their website, ( still under construction). Looks pretty good, thanks for the info.

 

Congrats on the new additions ! Very sweet, best of luck with them. I really want a purple plate myself... :lol: Nice finds my friend. Take care

Thanks for luck! Plates are awesome! I wish I could get a good pic of the color- how often and what should I feed it? Once a week mysis/ reefmist?

awesome plate! I feed mine cyclpoeeze and mysis about 3 nights a week. I also squirt a little mysis at it when I feed my fish.

I fed my plate frozen mysis tonight... It opened up, and ate it.

Last night a stupid turbo decided to try to knock over the zoas! I plucked him up, and throw him in time out (in the soap dish) ends up, that's probably a reward for him! :lol:

This morning they were ok, but I'll let you know later... and I'll post the feeding pics!

Umm... didn't upload pics yet, but everything is doing good :D... except, the plate is a little yellower than it was when I first got it in some spots- any ideas? You can barely tell at all.. I'll try to get pic soon

and shrooms!

Link to comment

looks really good!

 

the shroom and toadstool are fine together, but that elastic band won't hold that mushroom in place very long. shrooms have the ability to move around. it'll either split down the middle, or shrink and slip out of the elastic band. the best way to get it to hold is to put it in a part of the tank (along with whatever rock you want it on) where there is very low flow and let it attach to that rock.

No, they are good. I have one too and freaked out at first, but it is just a good, hard working little snail. They mostly come out at night. No need to worry.

Hey GV love the tank!!
