do you find care for the euphyllia sp. easy? I'm afraid to take the plunge--I know they are not for your "beginner" coral keeper--any tips?

 

[1979camaro]

euphyllia aren't so bad...just need good water quality and do some target feeding

 

[aresgod]

dito to camaro, if you have decent lights they seem to do ok with just picking up stuff in the water column, but as long as you have good water quality and you target feed it is my experience that they grow real fast

ok moved the frogspawn and bubble again, think I might have it the way I want this time, let me know what you think

 

[1979camaro]

i like it much better

 

[S.Reef]

Very cool.

 

[dbacksrat]

the rock structure is pretty cool--i like the grass too

 

[aresgod]

yea i like the center rock work, i had it arranged one way then moved stuff around and havent been able to get it back quite like i want but what can you do, and the shoal grass is sweet, can you say nutrient export?

 

[aresgod]

ok so here are some pics of my leather spliting, also how big it has gotten and a metallic thingy that is in my tank that i dont know what it is

molly the goby and a mandarin fin in the backround

weird bubble thingy

 

[1979camaro]

got any new pics?

 

[aresgod]

soon, I just ordered some new stuff, should be here next week, maybe go to the LFS and get some new stuff, my cynarina is not doing well, not sure why(suspects the temporary exposure to hair algae messed with it) I moved it around and increased the flow on it, we will see how it does, I would hate to loose it since it is so huge. I also just got a sweet new fuge.

 

[1979camaro]

i will wait relatively patiently

 

[aresgod]

ok, so I have some accidental new additions to the tank. Here are some pics of my clown fish who have just spawned and their eggs. They are the orange things in the picture under the Hammer coral.

 

[1979camaro]

i guess your clowns didn't use protection....

 

[OCCFan023]

I was gonna say the same thing ahah. Are you gonna try and raise the clowns or are you gonna leave them in for the other fish?

 

[Fish Friend]

wow i like the pic of the first pic... it looks asif its actually been took in the ocean ! well done

 

[aresgod]

I might try feeding the fry special stuff, but I don't have the time or room to set up extra tanks to raise them out in.

 

[Lotus]

Well, I guess if they spawned once, they'll do it again, so if you do have time and space, you can try to raise the babies!

Great pics!

 

[Mushroomman]

Would the survival rate be decent?

Nice pictures.

 

[aresgod]

If I set up a breeding system it would work, I actually am thinking of trying to put them in my fuge and see if that does anything, problem is I can't put the hammer in the fuge so I would need to get the eggs off of the base, I was thinking about trying to use a turkey baster and sucking them off, any other ideas would be apreciated.
