Thanks! I haven't noticed any large feeder tentacles, but I've only had it for a couple of days now. I haven't tried spot feeding it. Should I? Do chalices need any special treatment? :question:
Thanks, Curtis! Mostly I go to Coral Corral and FAOIS (Fish and Other Ichthy Stuff) which are both in Oldsmar just a little further than Marine Warehouse. I like Marine Warehouse as well, but I prefer the two aforementioned LFS because they tended to have a larger selection and better prices. IMHO, Coral Corral has the best prices on non-coral inverts, and FAOIS has the best/healthiest fish and the best deal on coral frags. But I like to try to visit all three stores since they are kind of close to one another so that I can check everything out. However, I haven't been to MW in quite a few months though, so I probably need to go see what they have. ;)
BUT, the rics and chalice that I just got are actually from a fellow reefer in Lutz named Doug Drysdale. He runs a small coral frag business out of his house called Drysdale Aquarium Inc. You can find his business page on Facebook and check out his stuff. He's a nice guy and he sells a lot of nice stuff. My only complaints are that some of the frags that I've gotten from him have had hair algae, bubble algae, and other gunk growing on them, so just be careful of that if you go over there.
Those are really the main places that I check out. I've been to Rockin' Reef once and loved it as well. You can also check Craigslist and the Tampa Bay Reef Club webpage for stuff. A number of my corals came from a guy that I found on CL this past summer who was breaking down his tank. Hope this has been helpful, and good luck in your reefing adventures! :Cheers:
