Reefmack · 08-02-2009, 04:31 PM

Thanks Sapphire. I need to try my other digital that takes videos - to see if the colors come out better.

Nice vid !

Reefmack · 08-02-2009, 07:16 PM

Thanks everyone!

Tank looks awesome Terry. I love the raccoon and flame angel.

dmyers557 · 08-03-2009, 02:58 AM

Nice vid. Hows the racoon doing coral wise? Has he ate any yet? I love him.

Reefmack · 08-03-2009, 08:03 AM

Yep - the Raccoon has wiped out almost 100% of the Majanos, and had munched on some Palys (but not Zoas - weird), and my green Nephthea. Leaves SPS alone and most of the other soft corals. It's worth it though since the Majanos were killing off some other corals. So far the Flame Angel is behaving. The Flame eats fish food like a pig, but I've yet to see the Raccoon definitely eat any normal food - flake, pellet or mysis. That troubles me.

RaysReef · 08-03-2009, 08:07 AM

Nice short vid. Had to watch it a couple of times because the parrot was funny.

Reefmack · 08-03-2009, 08:14 AM

Yep - hard to get a parrot to shut up! At least he was talking and not squawking!

dmyers557 · 08-04-2009, 02:27 AM

I think the flame will be fine. At least the 2 I've had, never hurt anything.

I had one that was fine too - I've read that of all the dwarf angels the flames are the least likley to nip corals.

Reefmack -have you tried bloodworms - I know someone with a copperband butterfly that would only eat those for a while. Or perhaps you could try what I did (by accident) with my mandarin... I hatched baby brine shrimp directly into the tank, and then a few weeks later I saw it eating the frozen brine shrimp I was feeding to the sun corals.I guess it made the link between the live baby shrimp and the frozen shrimp. He now eats mysis,frozen rotifers etc. Just a thought!

Reefmack · 08-04-2009, 07:40 AM

I'd thought about the blood worms and live baby brine - worth a try. I've got frozen cyclopeze that I haven't fed in quite a while - I may try that too. He does fine eating corals, but I'd must rather he got a taste for something else!

Shamus · 08-04-2009, 12:14 PM

Tank looks awesome and great video!

The parrot IS a riot - took a bit but after listening a few times it reminds me of a Taun Taun from Empire Strikes Back!

A truly inspiring tank!
