My LPS 20gal. reef has been running under this fixture now for 1 year 1 month. All corals never lost any of there coloring nor bleached from the cross over. Matter a fact my Xenia's have...
Sadly ours died last week (pump malfunctioned and caught fire which had a domino effect of other water issues). He would hop along the front of our 200 gallon tank, loved to race back n forth....
Picked up my CB Target Mandarin from our FedEx station this morning. To say I'm disappointed about the condition of this fish is putting it mildly. I've yet to see a fish so skinny and still...
Looking at the tank with the magnifying glass tonight and found this tiny suncoral. Smaller than the diameter of a pen. You can see some small feather duster worms and spirorbids around it.
No subie, had one about 1 year ago but it has been gone for a year. this must have been a spore and is located in a shaded spot over by the pseudocorynactis.
Okay it is officially named Carlos the sun god.

Same thing happened to me :) Im still finding random sun coral polyps that are very tiny, all over the tank.
Your tank looks great! The chalice looks great too!! I need to pick up one for myself.
So these were hitch hikers on a back rock, just a few polyps. Did not think much of them but they are starting to spread an look pretty nice. Do you thing they are neon greens?
I do but he is getting to the point in size where he will be taken back to the LFS for credit. I may not get another little one at this point to see where and if the dreaded Caulerpa springs up again. If it does then I will purchase a new baby foxface. They are by the way algae eating machines and must be constantly fed some greens. I use an algae clip with different types of sheet algae. They are really nice fish to have.
they are beatyfull fish and they love love love their algea i had a baby one 2 yrs ago that grew out of my tank before i got the bigger tank, i wish i had of kept him he was perfect and fat.
