    Xmas Tree Coral

    Hi, Ive had this for about one week and finally was able to take some photos. This rock has a great variety of colors. Blue, White, Yellow, Red, and I saw Purple for the first time today. I have a 10g tank and 45 watt pc lighting so I hope the porites dont die off. They look to be doing fine so far.

    Think I got ripped off.

    Its a rock with some type of coral carpet on it, the carpet is a brownish beige in color with holes all throughout the rock. There are multicolored mini featherdusters in there. I'll try to post pics tomorrow.

    what's the best way to feed harlequin shrimp

    the legs would grow back too slowly for you to rotate. you'd need a bunch of starfish. and you are correct, just slice off an arm and throw it in and they will consume it. I'd buy a shrimp but its sort of cruel to do that to a starfish, its slow torture. Im not some tree hugger but a life is a...

    Issues With My Tank - Need Advice

    If you have any filter feeders and you dose too frequently it will allow algae to grow. Also the amount of lighting you give might have something to do with it.
