fraggle Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 ...are the garbage disposals of the reef. I absolutely love them. Personality, usability, style. Oh yeah. Just got 1 for my 12g (wouldn't recommend any more than that) and 4 turbos. Just got my green hair algea bloom. Tank has been cycling for 1.5 weeks. My 2 Red Legged Hermits and Emerald are also doing a good job. And my branching Hammer is doing VERY well. Now if I could just get this damn heater to be stable. I get nervous everyday on what temp I am gonna come home to.... I also think there is an Aipitsia in one of my rocks. How should I do away with it? Link to comment
kickyourbrainintheface Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 try camel shrimp, they worked for me. i actually had 4 camel shrimp at one time that spawned hundreds of babies, fish went nuts. none survived. i always thought it might be a good idea to set up a refugium with a bunch of camel shrimp only...you could feed fish or even seahorses i think.

reefan Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Just so you know Queen's get big, about 12". Make sure to have extra shells for those hermits. This may help to keep them from killing the turbos and queen. If I were you I would use the kalk method for the Aipitsia. If not that pepermint shrimp are a good way to go. JJ Link to comment
