I have been keeping a derasa and squamosa in my 55g fuge under 220 VHO (10,000k and 6,500k bulbs, no actinic/blue) They have been doing great, the derasa is 4" and has 1cm of growth since I got it and the squamosa has had about 1/2cm and is about 6". I feed them about 3-4ml of phytofeast over a week.
Recently my VHO decied that it only wanted to power one bulb at a time no matter what I tried. So I moved my clams to my display on the rocks so my sand sifitng goby wouldnt distrub them. The tank is lit by 4x65watt PC and 2x54watt T5, the tank is an 80g and the clams are about 9" underwater.
The derasa was a little bit to close to some zoos and almost looked as if it was gonna fall so I went to move it gentaly as I could and I noticed that it had attached its self to the rock in one day!!! Is this good? I assume it means that it is happy. I can move the frags to accomidate it. Should I just leave it and work around it?
The squamosa hasnt attaced, yet still extends fully.
