secret of keeping blastomussa?????

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

I keep mine in half shade. I don't think blastos need very much light, especially the red ones. It's also in the corner where I squirt food for non-photosynthetic corals.

Do you feed your Blasto? I was under the impression that they need to be fed.

They do good in very low light (full shade) and need to be fed often. I don't keep them anymore because they are a little more difficult and require more attention than other corals.

I do feed them quite often, once a week, spot feed with brine shrimp.

I always thought that blasto wellis required good light. I will move them to a shade area today. They are so hard to keep...

Thanks guys

Thanks tlo for the article.

This article recommends less light but most of the other sites stated medium lights. I think you are right, less light for blasto. I am going to move them to a less light area. Thanks
