slime layer everyday? you talking about brown stuff? i'm referring to the pogado cup coral's flesh that covers the calcium skeleton. then there are the polyps that extend out here and there on the cup... all or most of the lps corals are made up of a calcium skeleton cover in some parts by...

just wondering if i should be concerned. i've been watching the flesh receed from the middle of the cup outwards. although, none of the polyps seem affecteed yet. All of the polyps are extending during the day.

could be... but i've seen how it's "normal" waste looks like.. solid dark brown color.. looks like a small piece of lead from a pencil.. this was cloudy, liquified stuff.

thanks... anyway, i only have one feather in there.. so even if it was, guess it was pointless since there isn't another feather to reproduce with.. it's also been hosting my ocellaris.. what used to be only at night, is now a full time job for it as well..

I've recently witness my feather duster, who is also hosting my ocellaris clown, spewingout white cloudy stuff... just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if this is a reproductive thing my feather duster was doing.

the cleaner wrasse is difficult to keep. they eat parasites off of other fish. sometimes you can get them to eat other foods, but still, they'll die slowly. i had one for six months, but it died as well. i've learned that it isn't meant to be in a home aquaria... in the wild, they service many...

that would be sick... i thought of stuff like that before too... or build a saltwater lagoon with a manmade beach.... wow...

sweet deal.... luckily the weekend is coming up.. i'll be up for this one... muahahahahahaaaaa

sounds about right.. mine did the same from time to time.. especially when it was smaller..

any pics would be helpful... with dropsy, the earlier part of it, the scales may not be affected... i've seen my bros' tang get bloated, then the fins melt away showing just the bone, internal bleeding could be seen through the skin.. horrible site.. if you could provide a pic some how we might...
