so far, i havent seen any lfs selling any MH, PC, or VHO. ive tried about 4 lfs already..
crazy4reefs, i couldnt purchase anything online. the e-commerce system isnt established here as much as it is there. so i can only rely on the lfs. thanks for the suggestion though
as for the ricordea.. if they really are it, how is it taken care of? ive read that it is hard to keep them.. but so far they seem opened up when the lights are on. theyre also small.. plenty of them ranging from 1/5 inch to 2 inches in diameter. this particular rock, where the ricordeas are poitioned.. intrigues me. i think there's a lot of evil stuff in there. at night time ive seen a lot of really way far-out strange creatures that i have no idea where to find info on about. there's some sort of orange stuff... a clam-shaped shell that's stuck to the holes of the rock.. a very weird worm that has a crown like head,, lots of white transparent branches.. and a weird thing that has a very long sucker which it uses to climb the rockscape. ill try to get picttures if i can.. i really need to identify these.
asa for the fish, ive decided to trade in the midas blenny for a false clown. just as i suspected, he immediately hosted on the goniopra, bugging it i think. however, he doesnt hide, and is very active.

well, the orange thing - Sponge, keep it
and the elgance, you have 2 corals that never live in captivity for a long time (a few months) the elegance and gornipora, both have a high tendensy to die.

the elegant coral has spruced up (the biggest ive seen him yet!). he's about double the original size right now. howver, now it is the goniopra and the green bubble pearl that's now not opened up.
it's really weird.
everything in my tank is fine.
prior to this, ive added 10 turban snails to make it a total of 12. and 5 hermit crabs.
the hermits are cool as ive already seen the improvement on getting rid of algae.. but they're clumsy as hell. the shells keep bumbing the corals.. and maybe thats the reason why they retract.
here are the turban snails.. (lfs said they're turban).. so im not really sure.
