Sushi Posted August 5, 2004 Author Share Posted August 5, 2004 firefish is much more active now... out & happy (not to mention, not as scared!) i see him a lot more, i wonder why i was worried about him in the first place yea, those zoo's are sweet, they don't look that great under regular lighting, and only show their best colors when the actinics come on (or when moonlights are on). for the most part they look like regular orange/green zoo's when all lights come on. i can't wait until they spread, they're one of my fav. color morphs Link to comment
3gEclipseGuy Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Thanks for the pics! I may try that later on. I'll check back with you when it's covered the back. heh heh.... Link to comment

CindyC Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 I have the same tank and was wondering how you were able to get all that light in the lid? Thanks Link to comment
CindyC Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Forget my earlier post...didn't notice the 4 pages DUH!! Link to comment
Sushi Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 my yellow tubastrea is now nursed back to health!! (didn't look too good at the LFS but here are the results after 2 weeks of spot feeding--no more bowl feeding!!) Link to comment
3gEclipseGuy Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 How do you spot feed it and what did you feed it? I guess you would also have to turn off all pumps right? Link to comment
Sushi Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 i don't turn off the pumps when i feed. i used to, but after realizing that if i just squirt food directly at each polyp, the sun coral's tentacles usually catch about 80% of what i feed. the rest 20% becomes fish food... my clown & firefish love it. not to mention my fire shrimp who eats like a pig. i feed it Cyclopeeze. basically looks like little red dots...i use a little medicine dropper (bought one from petsmart, $2), and i just give like 2 squirts of that stuff per polyp. it seems to be working well here's a pic of my orange & yellow tubastrea during night time Link to comment
MarLooney Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 suns looking great. nice to see i sold 'em to someone who's taking good care of 'em. the yellow's doing much better than before too. i just moved the frag of yellows from my prop tank to Christine's tank. i'll try to get pics eventually.

3gEclipseGuy Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Are they also known as sun coral? I just got one.... I'll post a pic soon. Link to comment
Sushi Posted August 18, 2004 Author Share Posted August 18, 2004 thanks marlo... i don't regret the purchase 3geclipse: yea, they're also called sun corals... good luck! Link to comment
abernier Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 why is that cyclopeze stuff so expensive? Link to comment
Sushi Posted August 18, 2004 Author Share Posted August 18, 2004 that link i posted, has crazy high prices... sorry i should've found another more "useful" link. but if you go to your LFS and ask about it, they'll most likely have somthing similar in stock. it'll be in the frozen foods section and it should be around ~$15 bucks for a frozen "stick" that's about 2x6 inches. i feed my entire tank minimally once a day once the lights go out and everything seems to be doing fine.

3gEclipseGuy Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Got it! http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/showthread...?threadid=35854 I hope it will look as good as yours soon. I use this stuff.... seems to be the same as you're talking about http://www.reefcollection.com/collectionde...tegory=7&id=712 Link to comment
