I am looking for suggestions on how to keep my yumas and rics in one place and not rolling around my aquarium-any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also, what do all of you feed your yumas and rics and how often!


thanks jolene
 
Mine are attached to a rock so the don't go anywhere. I used to feed them, but not anymore. My yuma grew really fast when it was fed.

I have used a couple of techniques depending on whether the foot is already holding onto something or not. If there is any rubble attached to the foot, I use super glue gel to glue it to the rock I want it on and it will eventually grab the rock with more of the foot. If there is no rubble already there, I put it into a dish in the tank with rubble on the bottom of the dish and then put netting over the top of the dish to keep it from being bothered by the crabs and snails. Once it attaches to the rubble it can be glued where you want it.
 
I feed my fish from a saltwater multipak frozen cubes and about once a week I'll turn off the pumps and use a turkey baster to dribble food to the corals. Just before I do that though I drop a couple of pellets down the opposite side of the tank to draw away the shrimp and crabs and still have to chase them away from the corals with a stick until they swallow the food.

I don't have anythng that needs to be fed, but do just for the fun of watching them.
