LOL no I might wait for a more brighter one. They have a pretty awesome painted angler but kinda pricey.

Someone bought one of the two. The $60 one is left.

Nice frag. It looks okay to me. Just give it time.

Any pics of the skimmer installed.

Sounds like ur cycle is about done. Everything seems normal. Ur scattered ammonia is prolly from bacteria tryn to catch up with all the ghost feeding ur doing. I would stop ghost feeding. Take ur water to ur lfs just to double check. I thnk ur bout ready for some snails and maybe a couple...

Chemicals from corals, stuff on live rocks, etc.....these things can irritate or harm u but not everyone. Some ppl have thicker, not so sensetive skin i guess. I always have my hand in my tanks when cleaning or feeding and many other reasons. I've never had a problem. I've also had my shrimp...

Wat do u have for flow. If its not bleaching or loosing color I wouldn't worry, give it time.

how old is the tank. I would have started the light aclimation with the sps at the bottom of the tank untill it looks happy then slowly up every time it looks happy again(full PE). Wat else is in the tank. Give it some time spa usually take a month to fully aclimate and start growing.

If the scares are to severe or deep it will leave marks but should make a come if fed right. U can turn off pumps when feeding. So it doesnt go in the overflow boxw

At least yr getting a feeding response so that's a good sign. Ask yr lfs if they carry live ghost shrimp or guppies. They should go for around 10-15 for $1. Feeding with lights off or beginning of photoperiod works for me. Like Cranberry said when it starts to eat try dead or frozen shrimp or...

I don't see y u can't have a tiger pistol shrimp in there. They just like to dig all day. Just make sure yr rock r touching the bottom glass and notsitting on top of the sand or u can have a landslide. Pair it up with a nice shrimp goby. Check some of the wysiwyg sites. They always have pairs...

update is I sold my 24g aquapod today for a bottle of hennessy vsop.

They are very slow growers so feeding mysis or cyclopeze should help but not needed. I don't feed mine anything and itsbdoing well. U can place them next to other corals like zoa with no problem. Very peacefull coral. I got my colony of 15 heads or so for $35. They sometime expensivebcuz they...
