Mirya Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Here's the link to his Ebay store. You pretty much have to follow him and then wait for updates. He seems to get gobies in every month or two, and they always sell out quickly. http://stores.ebay.com/caribbeanfishcollectors/ Thank you! Tonight I noticed something, well, steamy, going on with the pom pom crabs...

Pom Pom Love by TeenyReef, on Flickr Tomorrow things are going to be all awkward and weird for them Pom poms are fascinating creatures. I got the second one recently because the original one had somehow lost his poms. The new one had two poms. Now, only a couple weeks after getting the new one, they both have two poms. It's like crab magic Link to comment

teenyreef Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 man i need some pom poms Do it! Other than their tendency to completely disappear when the lights are on, they are great crabs for a small tank Link to comment
teenyreef Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 I love how things get different in the tank at night. Some corals open up, and other close up. In my tank, they generally close up. If I wasn't used to it, I would definitely freak out sometimes. For example, here's a picture of the blue ricordea taken last night after the lights were off. The only illumination was from a table lamp nearby.

teenyreef Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 Stella sent me lots of macros, most of which went in the 10g tank. I stuffed some of the leftovers in this tank just to see how they do They're in the back corners so they aren't really visible from the front. My hope is that they will fill in and grow up from the corners so that they can be seen from the front. 20151231_181037.jpg by TeenyReef, on Flickr 20151231_181059.jpg by TeenyReef, on Flickr 20151231_181114.jpg by TeenyReef, on Flickr Link to comment

teenyreef Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 I want a pom pom for surea, is it better to get a pair? Mine did fine when I had just one. I just added the second one because the first one lost his poms. Link to comment
teenyreef Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 Happy New Year everyone! My resolution for this tank in 2016 is to finally figure out how to get my zoas to stay open for more than a week at a time, and to figure out what coral to add to the top right side rock Link to comment
Nola Bear Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Happy New Year everyone! My resolution for this tank in 2016 is to finally figure out how to get my zoas to stay open for more than a week at a time, and to figure out what coral to add to the top right side rock Happy New Year, Teeny, and all. What's this about the zoas? You know, I still know so little about all of this. I noticed one of my zoas (8-12polyps) has been opening half way for two days, The other zoas I have seem great. Is this customary behavior? I was starting to worry. I noticed the hermit on it tonight picking at something, which only made me worry more. Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 So i've been trying to figure out what NSFW means so I finally looked it up. I get it! With the pom poms! LOL!!! Link to comment

Better late than never Happy New Year, Teeny, and all. What's this about the zoas? You know, I still know so little about all of this.

I noticed the hermit on it tonight picking at something, which only made me worry more. My zoas are sometimes fully open, beautiful, and multiplying. For about a week Then they go through a phase where some or all of them close up, or only open up for a few hours during the day. This goes on for a month or two. Or three. I still haven't figure out if it's pests, feeding, water conditions, or some combination. I've eliminated a lot of possibilities including my sexy shrimp bothering them, water's too dirty, etc.. Right now it seems to come down to doing a lot of target feeding with a combination of Reef Roids and Gonipower. I've been doing heavy target feeding every day for about two weeks and they are almost all open now. Link to comment

Then I have some others that are open all the time and others that I just can't figure out. I think zoas are tougher than SPS in a lot of ways Link to comment

I can at least get my acros to grow and show some color. And, at least so far, when they die I know why. But zoas are totally inscrutable Link to comment
teenyreef Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 Wow, it's been a long time since I posted a new FTS! Here's a new FTS for the new year CAD Lights 4g FTS - 2015-01-03 by TeenyReef, on Flickr Top down to go with it: CAD Lights 4g Top Down - 2015-01-03 by TeenyReef, on Flickr Link to comment
Sk8n Reefer Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 super sweet shots? so stuffed full.......my tanks are empty now ?. Your top downs are still amazing as ever ? Link to comment
teenyreef Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 super sweet shots so stuffed full.......my tanks are empty now . Your top downs are still amazing as ever Thanks, Scott! I keep eyeing that empty spot in the top right, though. So much empty real estate. Just need something that will grow up and away from the hammer Link to comment
vlangel Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Ha ha, thats funny that with a 4 gallon tank you are commenting on so much empty space! I can only imagine how wasteful you must think some of us are, ha ha! Link to comment

Just need something that will grow up and away from the hammer It's crazy how the small tanks make the corals look so much larger. You look at this and then it makes perfect sense how your daughter created the mandarin image, organized chaos -- beautiful Is it difficult to clean the glass where the hammers and duncans are? Do you just do it at night once they close? Link to comment
wurster Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Love the new FTS! The zoa's placement makes it look like a walkway from above, very cool. Link to comment
