divecj5 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hey Digg. Glad to hear that things are still moving along with your tank. It looks great and I'm glad to hear that your palys and zoas are doing a lot better. I completely understand slacking on the tank....I have been in the same boat. I have made sure to keep up with water changes and cleaning, sort of, but just haven't been doing the best at monitoring levels and such. Now that the winter is approaching, hopefully I will have more time to devote to the tank. Link to comment
debbeach13 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yeah pictures. Looks great glad to see every thing is open and healthy. I have that fish in a 5.5 mine is called Cooper. They have some funny habits. After lights come on he comes out from his cave and if he does not get his flake for the day. He gets up on one of the top rocks and waits. When I walk near the tank he kinda does a flip. Really funny. Link to comment
diggman08 Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 so what do you feed it and how often.. i fed mine some cycopeeze pellets yesterday and it didnt want them at all... the bristle worms came out the wood works when i but them in there..lol.. Link to comment
debbeach13 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Most of the time flakes and once a week frozen myis(spelling) but I think he would eat any thing. Give him a couple days to get used to his new home. I do feed almost every day because I also have sexies with zoas and do not want to risk the sexies eating corals. This feeding will all change when I move the sexies to my new 3 gal picotope with just mushrooms, xenia, and maybe a couple other things but no zoas in there. Link to comment
diggman08 Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 yeah im debating adding the pulsing xenia to mine,, i dont want it to take over!!!,, it kinda looks like weeds to me when it gets reallly thick Link to comment
el fabuloso Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 This pico is looking really nice! That YWG is an interesting addition. I thought about adding one to my pico but I'm still not over the death of my green clown goby. IME, Xenia isn't that bad. They do have a mind of their own and stray away but they're easy to take out. It's GSP that you have to worry about. Link to comment
TurtleJames Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Great tank, Digg! Thanks for the pics of you setting it up. It helped tremendously when I was figuring out what to do. Link to comment
diggman08 Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 no prob bud... and thanks Link to comment
clownfish1124 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 yeah im debating adding the pulsing xenia to mine,, i dont want it to take over!!!,, it kinda looks like weeds to me when it gets reallly thick imo, xenia is more of a weed than gsp, it gets so long, the little 'flowers' on the ends start attaching next to your expensive frags and colonies and before you know it, they are all p'oed Link to comment
divecj5 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Hey Digg...just wanted to see how it's going with you and the tank. Check out my thread when you get a chance....looks like I will be taking down the 29 after 18 months and starting fresh with either a 15g or 20H. Hope all is well with you. Link to comment
