Default Re: The Official Asylum Reef Tank Thread

Never imagined feeding mice to my fish. lol

My new harlequin shrimp are going crazy eating those astrea stars. They're definately giving me my money's worth.

I culled out a giant wad of pulsing xenia a couple days ago. It just grows so fast I can't keep it culled back fast enough. I need a lawn mower for it.

I zapped a few anemone's between last night and today. I can't find any more so I'll just wait another month and see what happens.

I got the DT's frozen oyster eggs and a new quart DT's phyto. I'm spot feeding the goniopora and it's coming back already. There's a drastic improvement after just one feeding. They were just starving to death is all. There wasn't any food in the tank small enough to sustain them.

Last, but not least, I put my skimmers, OTB and cannister filter on a timer plug-bar. It shuts them off every night from 8 to midnight. I set an alarm on my phone so I remember to feed at 8. That'll allow all the corals to eat for 4 solid hours before skimmers kick back in. I'm going to feed every other day, using the spot feeder and oyster eggs for the Goni while I feed the other end of the tank with a variety of foods.
I'm super excited about getting this Goniopora to come back because I'd love to get the red bird's nest Goni. It's gorgeous.
