Oh..thanks gena! I will take a looksey

Bamato- he still hides all day :(

I am hoping that he comes out during the day soon so I can get a good pic...also he ate frozen twice and he hasn't wanted any so I ended up buying some more glass shrimp cause I flt bad that he hadn't eaten in a few days...I am a sucka lol

 

How often are you feeding? All my scorps eat every third day, ie monday, thursday, sunday, wednesday, etc... Sometimes they may get a small treat on an off day if they beg so much that I cave in... How big is he? What frozen did you feed him? How did you feed him?

He ate the second day i had him...I cut a krill in 2 pieces and he ate it off of a kabob stick (I rounded the edges) I then tried everyday after that and he just was not interested...I tried silversides as well. After 3 days of no eating I bought him some more grass shrimp.

Should I let him go a few days again without eating? I tried at night as well when the lights were out.

 

he is about 3.5"

Looks awesome.

I have not really tried the caulerpa algae because I was told at the LFS that it could go asexual and foul the tank.

How do you keep it and is there something you can do to keep it from doing this? Are there only certain ones that do this?

I have yet to see any go A sexual..I believe that the grape (racemosa) caulerpa is the one more likeley to do this as well as the prolifera..I just keep an eye on it and prune the leaves that look like they are turning white or have spots...this is a clue that it may go A sexual.

The caulerpa is a realllly fast grower if you look at the time frame from the last pix I posted and when I transferred everything from my 10g

I would never add caulerpa to a reef display tank like my 29g or my 125g...altho my tangs would prob eat it all haha

I have a little piece of the purple macro left..my snails and hermits took a fancy to it <_<

I dose Parts A and B, live phyto and Reef Plus every other day.

 

So awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

lol We need more pics!!!

 

will do! give me a few minutes to take a few more :P

Looks amazing I really like the tank alot. Also don't ya just love that lil fuzzy chiton I have 2 in my 75 named Fuzzy and Wuzzy. Just ordered 4 more. 2 more for the 75 and 2 for the 30. We play a game here who can spot Fuzzy or Wuzzy first.

They are so cool! I asked John all kinds of questions when he gave them to me only because if they ate macro I would have put them in another one of my tanks...I love them in here cause they stay out in the open all the time...the larger one has been on the back glass eating the algae film :)

Awesome tank! Love all the different macros you've got, esp. the blue scroll. You've got some amazing fish too and now I'm interested in fuzzy chitons. :)

Thanks animal! I got another but I gotta download it...just came back from watching The Clash of the Titans in 3D...awesome :)

 

fuzzy chitons... taking over one reef at a time :lol:

thanks OClownandNanos!

I put my fuzzies 1 on each mountain and so far they haven't left. They just roam around on them. I want the other 2 to go on the glass since Fuzzy and Wuzzy love thier rocks.
