I did have my LR up against the back, but my only powerheads were on either side, up high. I seemed to get plenty of circulation.

Originally posted by Velocity how did u transfer him to the tank? i would be terrified that he would try to shoot at me. He's really not that scary. I just scooped him out with a net and flipped him in. After acclimation of course.

My LFS has been holding him for me for 3 weeks now and I just picked him up yesterday (Tuesday). So far I have only fed him a ghost shrimp. In three weeks at the LFS, he ate several snails and hermits. He isn't really a fish eater. He was in a tank at the LFS store with a small cinamon clown and...

Originally posted by nicky1.8t i want to make a mantis tank as well but one question, how do you move him when he out grows the tank? VERY, VERY CAREFULLY!!!! :D MAYBE WITH TONGS AND A BOILING POT OF WATER WAITING

Originally posted by jrpage :confused: How so? I've never seen one before. It's really pretty! Well, so far he has cracked a 1/4" piece of rigid acrylic(I was teasing him out for pictures) and has dusted a few ghost shrimp with his powerful smashers. UNBELIEVABLE!!! I'm afraid to open up...

Originally posted by doris My only concern with the moonlights was that the corals were not closing at night like they did before the moonlights. I became concerned that not getting any down time, or rest state, would be possibly harmful in the long run so I quit using them. Is this off the...

Originally posted by NM reef I wish I could identify the problem...but I can't. I had the same situation about this time last year...almost identical. Despite all my efforts I eventually lost the coral and to this day I have no idea the source or cause of the decline. I wish I could provide...

Originally posted by overanalyzer does it eat though?? When you feed it the silversides and squid?? It seems to eat it at times, sometimes the shrimp get to it and steal it, other times it just doesn't stick to the coralat all!

Originally posted by overanalyzer does it eat when you feed it?? I am assuming you feed it after lights out with some nice meaty food (when it is all puffed up??) Yes, I have tried to. I have used DT's, brine shrimp, silversides, squid, etc...

Originally posted by waterfaller1 How long has it been,since you changed your light bulbs?Just a thought..And,can you post your water parameters? I just changed my light bulbs, one every 2 weeks for the last 10 weeks (5 - 160 watt bulbs) Here are my parameters: ammonia, nitrite nitrate and...

one other thing is that I haven't changed anything or done anything new.

here is what it looks like now:

My wellsophyllia has not opened during the day in the last month. At night with the moonlights on, it is totally puffed up with the tentacles out. During the day, it is shrunken tight to it's skeleton and seems to be losing it's color. All my levels are and have been ideal. Actually, all of my...

here is mine before I upgraded it to a 125

You should probably add them at the same time. Or even the percs first since they tend to be less aggressive. Not much room for them to stay away from each other in a 46 bowfront. (I had one before my 125).
