FYI: I have actually never intentionally fed the CC and my frag setup doesn't really receive much of maintenance either, so I wouldn't really classify this CC as picky coral by any means. Only thing I notice from the posts is that you guys get some really nasty stuff coming out of your taps (300+ ppm TDS). But I'm sure everybody uses RO-DI.
The only supplement I use for these is iodine, but that is mostly for the fingers. Alk runs around 8 dKH and Ca around 350 mostly from Ca reactor.
CC doesn't like direct bright light, but fingers do. Easy on the current too for the CC, otherwise heads will grow smaller.
Thanks again guys, I'm sure all will be well in few weeks.
