Looking great Peter!!! That green is stunning.

Thanks guys, the green has come a long way, did cipro again on him, will try a FTS. Clearly just a carpet tank with haddonis and gigs, no carbon.

Pete, I'm glad to see them doing well! That green was really in poor shape when you first got it. Looks much better from those pics!

 

[ptr13]

it is getting better Dave, thanks, been trying to keep up with water change and consistency with water parameters and also feeding.

Your tank is not something you will see everyday! Very unique and you have quite the collection of Stichodactlya anemones. Thanks for sharing.

 

[ptr13]

thanks rippinfrags, it has been a long journey, strictly carpets and needs plenty of attention with water changes.

why so much caulerpa?

 

[ptr13]

It actually helps me with the anuissance algae like slime and hair algae, so I would rather have this problem.

 

[Pinkskunk]

it looks like you need to prune back some caulerpa for the nems to have room to expand as they look kinda "i need more room to be comfy"

one a side note, are those caulerpa hard to grow? i can grow them in my large sump to benefit my display so any tips as far as light and substrate needed to grow them would be appreciated.

Pete, that last pic of the brown one ALMOST captures the real life color, but not quite. It looks lots better in real life. A real beauty! That is one of my favorites.

 

[ptr13]

thanks Dave, all is well and need to prune it back again.
