Ooooh thats a sea apple... :fingerx: That long shot made me think otherwise..... Glen I wish I could see close up shots of your tank! You'd get my TOTM vote too...

 

[DianaKay]

Can you please tell me how many Green Chromis fish you have? And how many of them did you start with?
Your fish colors compliment your tank so beautifully. :snshne:

the comanthus just found another place to hang on to.
he just move around once in a while.

greetings, GlennF

There is very little to no information about keeping a Comanthus in a reef tank, that I can find.
I don't think I've ever seen one before your picture here. It looks AMAZING.
How long have you had it? Is it an easy specimen to keep? Is it an aggressive creature?
You sure have some amazing corals!!! :snshne::flower:

It seems a very difficult specie. It's part of my project to introduce NPS and filter feeder into a mixed reef filled with soft corals, lps and sps.
I am feeding it with a turkey blaster filled with a mix made of all deep freeze and dry food i can get my hand on.
peaceful, non stinging but can walk around.
I introduced it into the tank on 3okt2013

There is a small fish living in it.

Feeding the tank:

This is how i prepare my daily food for the tank ,Step bij step (of course normally without exactly weighting all ingredients, i just grab some out of the freezer).

i start withsome random deepfreeze food , total 30-40 gram

all goes into the bottle (minus the bottle weight)

This goes in also, both one full spoon

 

[glennf]

These also goes into the mix:

fill it up with aquarium water:

Put on the lid and shake until all is mixed well :

Ready to feed:

You are doing great from the looks of your BEAUTIFUL TANK.
That's seems like too much food to feed everyday. But I have to remind myself that your feeding a 300gal tank full of corals & fish. My tank is only 65gal. w/less life in it.
Thanks for sharing your daily food plan.
This thread never disappoints me for having
AWESOME PICTURES with every post :snshne:

I have manage to control my water parameters in such a way i don't fear overfeeding.

greetings, GlennF

 

[glennf]

Don't try this at home ....

That is my advice for anyone who don't have full control over his water quality.
i have manage to control my water parameters in such a way i can afford to do this.
Not any tank can take this kind of feeding without consequence.
