I understand, when my corals grow out let me know what you like and I'll send some to you.

Ok polyps have come out to play.

tbittner · 03-30-2008, 09:06 PM

WOW! That is really stunning! I love sea fingers. I had a really pretty red one with white polyps and after about six months, it just fell apart.

Did you pin point the reason for the collapse?

tbittner · 03-31-2008, 12:50 PM

No. It looked fabulous all that time, and in about 4 days of time, pieces broke off of it and it just completely collapsed. Water quality hadn't changed, salinity rarely creeped more than .002, light hadn't changed except for the bulbs getting older.... hmmmmm.......

I will keep a close eye on it.

Ok it's been awhile since I've updated my chronicle, but I want to lt evryone no where the tank stands and share some pics as well. I will also do better to keep the chronicle going with more frequent updates. To date the tank is doing great ammonia and the like all read zero and although I have a tiny bit cyano (overfeeding) in the sump the main display has no algal issues. I've added a Royal Gramma and a Pistol Shrimp, Goby pair (yellow watchman). A skimmer upgrade is in the workings as my ETSS is just to large for my system and I'm upgrading my MH reflector to a lummeric mini shortly. I also have a calcium reactor planned as well as a controller although I can't decide between the AC III and the Reefkeeper. Anyway there's a little info time for the pics:
