Thanks Dave and family for a great meeting and Cajun feast. It was great to see everyone again (and of course Dave's tank! ).

It was nice to see a nice turnout and put some faces with the new members I've not personally met before and see a few I haven't seen in awhile. I'm glad everyone enjoyed themselves, hopefully learned a thing or two about reef chemistry, and maybe picked up a frag or two. A special thanks to our new member Chris for the crayola plana(?) frag, looks like it is going to be a stunner! We'll have to do it again sometime.

Dave your the man!
It was great to get to finally see your tank and it did not dissapoint. It's obvious you have put a lot of time, effort and knowlege into it's evolution and construction......kudos! The layout was outstanding and I could have stared at the tank for hours but all those fish nerds and great food kept distracting me
And I didn't even have any apple juice.
Seriously thanks for letting us in and for providing the talk on chemistry.....a subject so many (including myself even after minoring in the subject) have a phobia of but is not all that hard to understand with a little effort and a simplistic explanation...which you provided

Thank you, reef-kensei fishdoc-san for the kind words. In spite of all I learn, the hobby still continues to baffle me at times. I am glad you enjoyed yourself and I'll need to get out to your place someday.

Hey Dave, what do you feed your Harlequin??? I meant to ask you at your house, I think I got sidetracked...

 

[cee]

He used to eat asterinas until he dessimated that population. Now he gets an occasional linkia leg from the sump. Many years ago when I kept them I would freeze starfish for feeding, but this works better as the stars regrow the legs. He's probably my favorite in the whole tank.

[ct_vol]

How long does it take for the linkia leg to regenerate??? Do you have more than one linkia???

 

[cee]

"Regrowing" the legs is probably a bit strong. The wounds healing over is probably a bit more appropriate. I'd say, properly rationed, a star will last 4-6 months, perhaps a bit more. I'm sure he finds an occasional asterina straggler, too, but you can always tell when he's hungry as he'll roam around during the day.
