Re: Tori's First Marine Expedition!! nano style!

well i got back from TN on monday and found everyone alive and well, and my yellow polyps already spreading out again.
since then i've started feeding my sexies a cocktail of mysid and baby brine, but i haven't really found a way to just drop food in and make sure they get some without being boldozed by the hermits...so i'm still hand feeding.
but polyps are getting happy again! i think one colony (which was always kind of struggling) has been wiped out, but the others are healing and already the YP and my brown/green centered zoos are looking great!
also, my red shroom is busy colonizing his rock. his two little buds are growing stalks and branching out, and he is sending out more "feet" and may be moving onto a new ledge...

i'll get some pics up today or tomorrow.

now i am theorizing about a way to get my frags back into the tank so that the can benefit from more water movement without being available for my sexies yet... maybe a frag rack? the shrimp don't seem to like swimming in open water.
i'm also picking up some omega one shrimp pellets which i will experiment with. also theorizing about making a kind of shimp "feeding station"...we'll see what happens.
