At some point I would like to turn my 30 gal freshwater into a saltwater but wanting to do some investigating first. This tank would be FOWLR and no corals at all. I plan on having a few big pieces of rock but not a tankful of it as I hate the look of live rock but need the right amount for the...

The two shrimp I would never add to any reef tank is the peppermint and camelback, they will eventually clean out your corals etc.

I have had my pom pom for 4 months now, they are so cute but hardly see him. When i first got him he only had one pom pom .Well he now has 2 pom poms, they do split the one pom pom if its healthy and then will have 2 of them. I don't believe light is an issue for their anemones as they are...

Thanks all for the replies. I don't have a powerhead in this tank as i would have no sand left in it nor water either. Its 5 gal The Aqua Clear pours right back into the tank Tom are you familiar with them?? Some say like yourself no flow is ever to hard for a suncoral but I have just pushed it...

Here is a pic of my new Suncoral I got today. Still adjusting to the tank but gosh are they beautiful. I did give it a tiny bit of food as well. But I would like to know about the flow it should be in. Should the heads be really moving or move it to the side of the flow a bit?? I am using a hob...

Good start so far, love the duncans (if thats what they are), our Yuma green ric is nice to along with the florida ric (myfavorite ric). In the pic of the clam behind it in the cave there looks like some aptasia???? If it is, you might want to get rid of it. How long have you had it going so...

My lfs has one that is 4 1/2" from tip of nose to tail it is huge. I never thought they got that big but wow it is huge. One thing I also noticed is that now that its that big the colors are not as bold and beautiful, don't know if anyone else has noticed this on the big ones.

Spanko, that black sun coral is at a place just down the road from me.

Is that sun coral an orange or yellow?? It looks orange to me but i know there are yellow ones too. Good news, i just phoned this place and they have 3 yellows that are not doing very well, 1 orange that is just beautiful and 1 black. I don't care for black as I want color. The guy there was...

That is what I was thinking too about just feeding around the coral itself. Do you have a pic of your sun coral??

coastie81 I bet you are thinking twice now about this post hey. You wanted to learn more about the Fox Coral and here we are talking about everything under the sun. But its all learning. Feel free to ask questions if you wish I don't mind at all.....

Spanko we go away for 2 weeks, so I am wanting to know if i go this route if the boys made sure that the foods fell right over the sun polyps if that would be okay??

Pm sent Jerry

My only issue with the sun polyps is that when we go away on holidays every year and the kids look after my tank all the time with a great job done i know they will not feed each polyp. So for the suns can you drop in a mixture of fozen foods jut above them and they will be fine?? Jerry says...
