I just discovered this guy. It's only really noticable with a flashlight at night. It behaves like a clam, opening and shutting it's "mouth" and there's a red/brown rock in the middle of it like a perl in a clam. When I shine a light on it, it looks pink and translucent. If I tap on the glass...

Bottom line (in my experience), Xenia grow like weeds with good light. No extra food is required. They'e the fastest growing coral in my tank and I don't supplement with anything.

I have a blue tang 1" or less that eats like a horse! It grazes on the copods on the back glass all day long and eats marine cuisine, mysis, and forumla 1 and 2 flakes. I love it; it thinks it's a clown and swims with my two little ocellaris' all day. It is shy though and drops to the bottom of...

Some strange behavior in the video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XySjdmX_lZk She's been doing this off and on since I got her last week. I'll see a tiny spot(smaller than a grain of sand) one day and then none the next. She seems happy, and she thinks she's a clown, swimming with my two...

I'm not exactly sure... from what I remember they looked just like emerald claws. I'll look again tonight when he comes out and report back.

I just discovered this guy after having the rock 2 months! He only comes out at night and barely comes out of his hole; this is the most I've seen him venture out. Just two days before I found him, I had this piece of live rock out and was scrubbing it like mad trying to get the v. snails off of...

Cools clowns! I've never seen so much white on them...

I don't have any background on mine at the moment but what do you guys prefer, black or blue background?

Originally Posted by JTT I have a 14g nano, and its surprisingly has a really strong pump. 4 months ago i got a pair of clowns... and besides a cleaner shrimp and other inverts, they are the only fish in the tank. but they always hang out at the back of the tank, near the top, and strangely...

I've had two small clowns for 2 weeks now and they won't leave each other's side. The LFS lady gave me clowns of different sizes so they'd figure out who was going to be the female pronto. The strange thing is, the smallest of the two is the one prancing in front of the other and having...

Originally Posted by Yosemite Sam Actually, I was wrong, it is a torch. I'd move it back up on the rocks. I've noticed that sand can irritate their flesh. Hah! But it seems happier on the sand; it's not closing up as much now. Maybe because more snails and crabs are crawling on the rocks...

Here are some close-ups, what do you think? Plate coral or torch? I tried to get a couple of the green mouth in the center, they're a little blurry though...

Originally Posted by Yosemite Sam Are you sure it's a torch? It looks like a long-tenticle plate coral. Is it on one or more stalks or is it flat/disk shaped? Well it was sold to me as a torch but I think you're right! This looks and sounds exactly like my coral...

I've had these for about a week now... The Xenias are pulsing like crazy which I've read means they're healthy but I've seen videos where they open a lot more. The torch seems to be doing ok. It's open but all of the photos and vids I've seen show thicker tentacles. Is this just because mine's...

Originally Posted by hyattdk2000 I have three torches and sometimes they close for a bit and then reopen this is normal for mine. They all do it at different times and R doing great. Hope this helps. Thanks for the input hyattdk, this makes me feel better. Mine seems to be pretty healthy but...

I've only had it since last Saturday and have noticed that in the morning before work and at lunch it's open all the way, but when I get home from work, about 30 minutes before 10ks go off and actinic lights come on, it's closed up tight. Once the actinics come on, it opens up a bit more but not...
