Well I mended my heart with another beauty. Ive wanted this guy since day 1 of my intro to the hobby and finally had the opportunity to climb that mountain.
Im sure some have you may have noticed the aiptasia in some shots Ive posted. Well those were understatements
Lets just say it was at a aquaculturing level 
So this drove me to attempt this guy and push the limits,
Ive scoured the tank and now have only 2 lil baby aiptasia!!Talk about stoked. I havent got him eating flake or pellets yet but am successfully feeding him PE mysis. Just found a neat lil trick to really get him going with it as well. Fed the tank a tsp of mysis at night and in the dark with some current on them they do look more alive and he was just goin for it! He was striking them hard, so cool to watch.Wish me luck folks I love this guy:inlove: feel free to give me tips or flame the hell out of me

:lol:
Ya, Ive been apprehensive for long time too bout feeding. I must have had over 100 aiptasia anenome and like I said after 3 days, gone!So that was really a relief seing him eat, let alone wiping out my plague population. I will keep you updated.
Btw Shilo,I got my replacement yesterday(an 1100) and the seio's been on in a bucket of water\vinigar for a day and night getting clean, so I should have it boxed up for you in a couple hours and to the post office.
