TheClark Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Those gorgonians look great! What do you feed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectra Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 Those gorgonians look great! What do you feed? Nothing special really I just feed the fish Mysis and brine shrimp every day. I will switch it up and add a cube of cyclops, rotos or squirt some phyto or roe in sometimes. Also a pinch of coral frenzy if I remember in the mornings sometimes. I try to mix it up. I am sure I over feed but things seem happy and algae is staying in check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectra Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Decided to do a little tank maintenance today still no water change though...................only been 7 months I think.............anyway a few pics. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectra Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 Well its been a while and things have really changed in this tank........and not the best either.......Have never been one to test all the time and water changes well maybe every 6 months or so. Anyway things were going great and looking the same until I ran out of calcium in the 2 part.......anyway long story short sps doesnt like that......ended up with die off and then the dreaded algae bloom.....so re booted with new sand and new rock. Saved a few choice pieces and the rest went away. some older pics right before the issues..... The tank today.......waiting for a cycle..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youcallmenny Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Dang, sorry to hear that Scott. I think I recognized your big green brain in Jeff's new T-5 lit display. I like your new arch though. I'm sure you'll get it looking great again in no time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it sounds like yours was a bit easier to track down (not that that lessens the pain). Good luck on the reboot. If I wasn't in the process myself I would be happy to throw some things your way although I do have some zoas if you want to frag them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CuttleFishandCoral Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Good luck getting this thing out of my tank. How about we start the bidding! Your green “trachy” is actually a insane carpet lobo. Super nuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
