marinebiologist Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 i read tha the salinity should be 1.026. is 1.024 fine or should i raise it? Link to comment
clownfish617 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 i dont think that would help the shrimp, probably just stress him out more. i say just keep everything how it is, and just keep a close eye on your shrimp i wish your shrimp better! Link to comment

marinebiologist Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 what do you guys think about me having millipora and birdsnest in that tank? are they easy to keep? what are there care requirements? Link to comment
hxcaquaman Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 moderate to high water flow. high lighting your 70 watts maybe enough as long as you keep them high in the tank and also perfect water just like the clam id wait a few months on it. you also gotta keep your calcium and magnesium in check with sps. may even have to dose Link to comment

Scott Riemer Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 what do they do? Nothing except help as members of your CUC. There is a particular type that eats corals but they're rare and your doesn't look like it so don't panic. They can multiply fairly quickly so don't be surprised if you see more. They do eat some coralline, but I like them. Link to comment
