GioReef Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Unfortunately I caught my talbot munching on my Anthelia. Now I also see that a few tentacles from my torch are missing. He has a nice sting mark on his face... Needless to say, I'm going to have to remove him for my corals' sake, and even his for that matter Tomorrow I'll attempt to catch the little guy. Oh well Link to comment

Plate was $35, purchased online though. ---------------- Purple/Green Polyp Montipora Dendrophyllia And a top-down showing the ORA Green Birdsnest (top left) Coral stocking should be complete, for now.

I'm looking for the anemone porcelain, the white one with red/brown spots. --------------- Been feeding the dendros every day, but they only seem to open up on their own around 8pm... about 2 hours before the lights shut off. Hopefully they'll settle in and stay open longer! Link to comment
GioReef Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 Unfortunately the maxi mini decided to move revealing the monti's dead tissue... continued growth nonetheless. Link to comment
