Hi Tori

It looks like things are coming along quite nicely for you. Your tank is looking great, just wait until everything starts growing like crazy!!

leahski · 02-14-2008, 01:06 AM

just added a new green rhodactis mushroom! it is on the substrate now, awaiting my desicion on it's permenant home. any opinons? here's a pic of the shroom (under actinics) and a FTS so you can decide... i've heard they like medium to high light and flow...

djbacon · 02-14-2008, 01:15 AM

love the shroom/// Id go with the rock in front that is currntly unoccupied. In a short while it could be covered with that lovely green mushie

jsindorf · 02-14-2008, 09:03 AM

yep.. the front rock

jsindorf · 02-20-2008, 09:49 AM

new photo please!

djbacon · 02-20-2008, 10:59 AM

yeah, how is the ric doing? I have an orange one on the way and the guys at the LFS gave me a little scare last night, told me that they really didn't do great in tanks that weren't at least 4-6 months old. Mentioned they often shriveled up and disappeared.

Curious to see how yours and mine will fair now.....

leahski · 02-21-2008, 12:29 AM

alright, alright, let me get some pics...

djbacon, it's actually a rhodactis mushroom, not a ric. and it's doing wonderfully. i'd never heard that before about rics, i thought they were supposed to be pretty hardy...best of luck to you for sure!

leahski · 02-21-2008, 01:51 AM

does everyone know what time it is?? PICTURE TIME!!

jsindorf · 02-21-2008, 09:02 AM

sweet

thanks for the pics... you're getting yourself a reef!

nice hairy schroom

good job!

djbacon · 02-21-2008, 11:00 AM

I can't figure out how I got ric instead of rhod in my head, but the pics are awesome!!

leahski · 02-21-2008, 12:22 PM

thanks! that rhodie is amazing. does anyone know if they use water to inflate their tissues like fungia? because when they get botherd and kind of "close up", their tentacles shrivel.
i think he really likes his new home!
