Cool

i have had my bubble for about 6 monthes now and it has gone thru different stages of health (appearance wise). i have a toadstool leather coral in the near vacinity and mushies. he does fine

One thing i have noticed if you move coral it takes a few days to acclimatize to the new spot new flow ETC....

i use a small amount of cyclopeeze once a day and now he is doing better than ever. i rareley dose anything. just strontium once every 10 days and iodide the same.

When i feed cyclopeze i turn offf the pumps and skimmer. leaving my korialia on for small flow. this helps the corals get some to land on it thus feeding them wihtout thongs.

i also just removed a Ctenophore as i believe it was killing my ltoadstool. since i removed from the toadstool his is soing better in a matter of a day. but i will add picks to show the mark he left on the TS.

i know that is a little off topic but i have heard varying opinion on these and mine is that my coral green star polys as well do NOT like ctenophores. they tenticles must be sting ing them as they and TS would extent their polys until now that the sweepers are nolonger touching it. just a small bit of info i just went thru. hope it helps,
