Reef Goddess:
Can you post a photo, or maybe a link to the Image Search for a free standing Christmas tree worms?
And I always was interested in coco worms, but all I had seen looked bleached, off-white pink. Maybe it is normal.
How high flow was under return? Did it bend the crowns of the worms?
Trying to learn about range of tolerances and preferred flow.
Placing sliming coral in the front of powerhead - you gave me the very interesting lead, how to deal with my new slimy tree-like coral, that was sold as scleronephthya. I never thought about this before.
lcstorc:
Thank you, and can you tell:
- tank turnover rate (liters per hour, per tank volume, or gph/tank volume),
- was the yellow finger gorgonian (Diodogorgia) in the high or low flow area,
- how many times a day gorgonian were fed, amount of food the tank received (in pinches or cubes - anything),
- was this gorgonian vertical or wide shaped? I have both kinds in red color, also Diodogorgia, and only one wide is finicky.
- did you feed the sun twice a week, was it a big or small colony, what amount of food it received each time - in cubes, tablespoons, anything. My big colony (7"L when open) takes about 5 cubes of Ocean Plankton and Mysis, or equivalent of chopped krill, shrimp and fish. And 3-4 cubes for all others. The skimmer produces the meat broth after that
Keep posting - very interesting.
