  1. Automatic feeders

    Thanks for the offer, but I need three of them.
  2. Automatic feeders

    Hello! I'm considering one of the following feeders for my tank: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/NavResults.cfm?N=2004+112973 Does anyone have any feedback or experience in working with any of the feeders listed on that page? Other suggestions are also welcomed… Thanks!

    OH MY GOD! I can't believe that I have them in my tank. I've been feeding them too. Yes, it's the same place that told me the Goni was "easy" to take care of. Should I try to kill the Aptasias?
  4. mini cleaners

    Thanks Lawdawg! That info is really useful...I appreciate the picture of the PODS and was curious about what they looked like. When I hopped onto the site, I read that the glass anemones are "pests" is that true? I actually thought they were pretty and bought some of them. Well, they...
  5. mini cleaners

    Thanks for everyone's help. They were all gone when I went home to look for them after work. I think they slipped through the bottom of the breeder and ended up being someone's afternoon snack. : ( Wings - have you ever tried to raise them or do your fish just eat them before they are able...

    ChrisRD - My mouth hit the floor when I read that... 8O Awwwww, that's terrible! But, I guess you’re right…that's the cycle of life. Here I was looking all stoopid trying to scoop out these little things from my tank at midnight and stayed up until 1 a.m. watching them. I'd like to see if I...

    I'm not trying to be a pain and I appreciate your feedback, but I don't think it's anything else other than baby cleaner shrimp. Regardless, I'll still do the research on both pods, as well as Mysid and Possum shrimp. For the last couple of weeks, I observed one of the cleaner shrimp to have...

    Oops, I guess I posted it twice.
  9. mini cleaners

    Hi there! The first thing that came to mind was that they might be "pods", I've read about them on the message boards, but I don't think they are pods (although, I'm not sure what those look like either). They are really hard to see, but they have tiny shrimp tails and legs and I swear that...
  10. mini cleaners

    Usually, when I turn off the lights for the night all of the fish retreat to their respective sleeping places, but last night there was a tremendous amount of activity....the fish were swimming around the tank and they were nipping at these tiny white specks and swallowing them. I wasn't sure...
  11. Sick torch coral???

    It's doing it again... 8O some of the stalks did a Zooxanthellae release again last night. Then when I was feeding them I saw this think substance emerging from the tops of the stalks; I was able to see the slime because the food that I was feeding them is dark green and mixed with saltwater...
  12. Oops I bought a flowerpot coral...

    Ok Homer :wink: So, I did a search on RO and Tap, but haven't found anything yet, but I'll keep checking. I think the SO would kill me if I told him that we had to get something that does RO and DI and a skimmer and that and the other thing....a refugium for corepods (whatever the heck they...
  13. Oops I bought a flowerpot coral...

    Ok, and no picking on the newbie!! :wink:
  14. Oops I bought a flowerpot coral...

    Uh oh! Ok, that one went right over my head. 8O Is using tap water ghetto? I'm in the Bay Area.
  15. Oops I bought a flowerpot coral...

    Yes, it does look like that, but it's green. I don't have a skimmer and I use tap water. I have been adding the following supplements, but was going to cut everything out except for the B-Ionic. I also target feed the corals every other day with Liquid Life. Coral-Vite Strontium &...
