Better. Still waiting for him to eat... Going to get some ghost shrimp for him to see if that will get him started again.

Yeah so Waldo kicked the bucket a few days ago.

 

Somehow I was able to pull some strings to get this killer.

I need to get him eating frozen but it is rumored that at the wholesaler he ate live ghost shrimp.

 

And not new but...

Nice.

 

 

 

Hey Bongo, I just picked up some Sympodium this week. Are there any special requirements or things I need to know about it? Also, am I correct in assuming it's a type of Xenia? Normally I would look it up but there isn't much info on it online. Digging the tank btw.

Thanks. I THINK the sympodium is a type of xenia but may be wrong. Like you said, not much info out there about it. The only thing I can say is that it grows faster when an angler fish isn't knocking over almost daily. It basically has the same care as GSP in my opinion.

Well so far so good. The best news is that the Rouge no longer needs to eat live fish. He now eats whole frozen formula one cubes! :D

 

I don't think there is anything else as healthy on the market! I can't believe he eats them.

Symposium is it's own coral. Looks like a cross between cloves, gsp, and xenia, but I don't think it is related to either of them. Cool addition. They're kinda rare. I think care is just like any softy. Medium flow and light.

Check out this video of Rouge eating a thawed out frozen formula one cube!!!

 

 

I took it with my iPhone (in vertical mode for some reason). I'll upload an HD video soon.

Wow this needs an update.

 

So right now, I just got home from vacation and I will be doing a water change tomorrow.

 

Only issue with this tank currently is this weird brown slime stuff that is a little out of control. It is not like cyano which covers things like a spiderweb. This stuff is globby and stringy. Might get a pic before I syphon most of it out tomorrow.
