BJV Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Hi All,I have been watching this small orange dot on one of the rock in my tankfor a couple of weeks. Well today I can confirm it's a Baby Sun orange Coral.Check the photo below and look right in the center. The photo is not the best but I sure can tell what it is. The baby Sun Coral is only about 1/8" in diameter.Barry 2 Quote Link to comment
Qckwzrd Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Congratulations! I've never done blood worms before, what brand do you feed? I've done live blackworms a few times. I have a huge pack of ProSalt blood worms I feed my killies, betta and axolotls. Quote Link to comment

I have a huge pack of ProSalt blood worms I feed my killies, betta and axolotls. I feed my sun coral a variety of foods enriched brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Blood Worms just about anything I can find. I also add American Marine Selcon to my food. My sun coral all seem to be doing well. Barry 1 Quote Link to comment

Qckwzrd Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Couple questions. Do you rinse your frozen foods, if so with what type of water? Do you let the food soak in selcon and if so how long? Beautiful tank! Quote Link to comment
BJV Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 No I do not rinse the food. I take a small amount of tank water add the frozen food and soak it over night in selcon in the frig. Barry Quote Link to comment
