Hi all: What's this green pokey stuff? Photos of the stuff and tank follow (with and without flash). Thanx for your help!

Thanx! Even though they are taking over the tank, I really enjoy them. The constant movement adds to the "feel" of the tank.

Right? The biggest leather measures over 16 inches at it's widest point. Thanx!

Not much really. Check the water and skimmer cup. Clean the glass. Feed the livestock. Check the temp. Do a bristle worm roundup once in a while. Shoot a syringe of hot water down the skimmer air tube to keep it unblocked. Talk to the fish. Listen to my pencil tip crunch coral on her...

I enjoy the movement as well. I have never been able to sustain SPS or LPS. The tank has stabilized where its at. And thanx!

Thanx!

Thanx!

My LFS is 200 miles away. I get most of my stock shipped to me. The toadstool is over 16 inches at its widest point. It started out as a two inch specimen from Live Aquaria :D

...I shimmed mine with floor tiles. Squared off under each corner of the tank stand until level.

Thanx! That's kinda what I thought. I've actually reduced what I feed them to about a dime sized piece of sliced shrimp. I only have one clown and he tends to travel quite a bit :D

Thanx! I started this tank about five years ago. I transferred from a five year old tank. So total age of most of the corals is ten years or better. My tank is completely stock. The bioballs are the originals. I conduct irregular water changes. I do RO my water. I do not add any chemicals. My...

Started with one...no action for a long time. I now have over a dozen. I hand feed them, cut up shrimp, once a week. They move around slowly. They actually have different preferences for location. I have anemones in my sump. The corals seem to tolerate their movement.

Believe it or not...one!!!! I had one anemone for the longest time. I left on a road trip, came back a week later and found two. From that humble beginning I now have about a dozen or so. I hand feed them, cut up shrimp, once a week. They are all over, including my sump!

Actually the tank takes care of itself...I just kinda nudge it along :D Thanx!

Actually there are two in the tank. They both span about 18 inches.
