I cycled it in March I think, then all my livestock stocking was done by about August. There have been sporadic additions of the odd snail since then. Basically every time I end up in Winnipeg I come back with something or other. Kind of like the Wife in Ikea....
Interesting that too much light can brown them out too, I'd got the impression that browning was overproduction of zooxanthelli due to insufficient light rather than the reverse. So far (touch wood) there doesn't seem to be any sign of bleaching..
Nutrients are a possibility also. Nothing ever shows up on the test kits, but I've had some problems with algae of some sort and a bit of cyano although that is mostly gone now I have my algae scrubber going..
Regarding feeding the favia, I read that it should be done at night when feeding tentacles are out, butive not been able to see that happen. If I send some mysis it's way with a turkey Baster, will it just get the idea?
