I ended up replacing all of my rock with a West Mariculture Bonsai Scape with most of my acroporas mounted on 2 inch-frag plugs. I made the change for ease of maintenance, and it'll be a lot easier to remove/frag/replace the colonies as they grow! looks great, love the openness. I'll miss the stax valley tho, I have to admit.

Tom@HaslettMI Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I really like the new scape, but you need a couple more MP10s in there... holy flow! Tom Quote Link to comment
xiaoxiy Posted March 14, 2019 Author Share Posted March 14, 2019 I miss my old canyon scape. I don't miss the invasive pocillopora and the difficulties moving acropora/fragging them though. 1 Quote Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 The canyon scape was really something special @xiaoxiy, but I think the new aquascape is too! How is the new bonsai scape growing out? Quote Link to comment

xiaoxiy Posted May 11, 2019 Author Share Posted May 11, 2019 On a side note, I haven't manually fed my tank for almost 3 months now. I've been using a product called NYOS Goldpods and Chromys (mysis) hooked up to an autodoser. My tank gets fed every 2 hours. No stirring or refrigeration needed. 2 Quote Link to comment

Do you feed equal parts at night? I just started a dry auto feeder and I'm seeing a ton of growth. Notice ant changes? The colors look amazing. Quote Link to comment

I only have 1 doser head open, so I mix the Chromys and Gold pods into one container in equal parts. The biggest change I note is how low-maintenance the tank is now that I don't feed or do water changes lol. 1 Quote Link to comment

Hi Xiaoxiy, I've only just found your build thread and will definitely be having a detailed read this evening (and following along in the future). Can I just confirm, you're adding Goldpods via a loser, without any mixing or refrigeration? If so, that's incredible. Do your fish eat the Goldpods? I understand it's designed more as a coral food and must say, my fish won't touch them! Many thanks again for a great thread. Quote Link to comment

I understand it's designed more as a coral food and must say, my fish won't touch them! Many thanks again for a great thread. That's correct. I've mixed the Chromys (Mysis) with the Goldpods as well, and the fish seem to eat both without issue. It initially took a while before the fish recognized the Goldpods as food. For anyone thinking about going this route, normal dosing connectors do not work; i.e will clog. I use airline tubing and SMC 5mm quick connectors. It took a bit of wrangling, but I stretched the doser head tubing to fit the 5mm SMC connector as well. 2 Quote Link to comment
