Awesome Doc.I like that copperband.
How big are the aiptasias that you got.My copperband wont touch the bigger aiptasias,but he'll snatch the little aips up as quick as he can find them.

hmmm, I have a variety of sizes. a few are about the size of a dime and others are tiny, like maybe the lead of a pencil. I also added peppermint shrimp and they are no where to be seen

Re: Doc's Reef Build
yeah, no kidding. what pisses me off the most is now I can't find that freaking yellow coris wrasse that I just added today!!! where the hell did he go?!?!?!?!?!

I even messed up the sand to see if he darted into the sandbed (which is where they sleep) and I got nothing. He was picking all over the place and when feeding time just came, he was MIA. I haven't seen him for a few hours now. BASTARD! How dare he die on me Day 1!!! ARRRRRGH!!!!!

On a better note, the CBB did eat frozen fare with gusto tonight (as with as much gusto as CBB can have. they are remedially slow eaters).

I have been checking lately at night for predatory movements of unknown inhabitants, like mantis shrimp, huge crabs, etc and I haven't found anything that could be mysteriously eating my small fish, but I have lost three fish smaller than 2 inches in the last month. what the hell??? Could my serpent star be devouring them? I give up

Re: Doc's Reef Build
What kind of star do you have? A green one? Maybe your fish just need some time to get adjusted.

As for chopping the encrusting goni in half, I have no idea, but if I were you, I'd try chopping off a small piece from the corner first and see what happens.

I have the run of the mill purple one, the one that moves as slow as frozen honey and couldn't catch a cold. I doubt he is nibbling at anything. I am thinking about breaking everything down again and trying it over to see if I can swing more room for it. that goni is just to pretty.

I can't find a single shrimp at all. I have looked all over and can't see a single peppermint shrimp. I hate that. I saw one the same day I dropped them in, but no clue where they are at today. Glad to know they will work if they are not dead....

Re: Doc's Reef Build
Your tank looks good as usual Doc.The brain was fat and plump like it's owner.

For me,I'm to scared to cut up a goni.Visit Goniopora.org before you attempt cutting one up.You may have to do a iodine dip afterwards to prevent brown jelly infection,not sure though.
