Thanks for the comment AlexKnight, the brain is in the tank. do you not see that pic ? LOL.

 

[alexknight]

oh haha!, I missed it, I was up at my parents house and jumped on real quick, I guess the dinosaur of a pc they have didn't load it

I didnt think you had enough room for a brain in there! remember the cool big green one I had? I loved it but it grew so fast I had to trade it in b/c it was sooo big! I hope yours dont out grow the tank like mine did! I know it is impossible for you but....DONT FEED IT SO MUCH!!!!!

Hey what do you use to feed all those shrimp . like how do you get it all to "stick" to the corals like that? do you just stick em on there with your hand?

Thanks for the comments AlexKnight and NYWDR. Finally someone is active tonight !

Feed all what shrimp ? You mean the shrimp on that faviates ? I just use a turkey baster. But now with those acans i have in my other tank i sometimes have to push the shrimp in their mouth with my hand because it falls off the way its angeled. HEHE. And yeah i am sure i will have to go and trade in that brain also but hey maybe i'll get double the price for it once i have to do that Its an awesome looking color i think though and yes i remember the green brain you had. I was just going back on all the threads and seen where you used to be nwdy. hehehe. bet you dont remember that. LOVE ALL MY NEW STUFF. I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN LATELY ! WOOT WOOT. thanks for all the comments.

Nice new pics. Ive been on another forum lately cuz its been boring over here. That brain is sick. I was just lookin at one kinda like that online, but it was like red or something. U sure do make sure every polyp get some shrimp!!!

 

[blazin2k6]

thanks for the comments rebelprettyboy. Yah i think the brain is awesome as well. was only 40 at my lfs so that isnt too bad i dont think. hope not at least. they always treat me good there. and yes i try to make sure every polyp gets food. dont want none feeling left out or nothing and then they start feuding with each other ya know. LOL. Same goes with my sun polyps i try to make sure every polyp gets food but my shrimp seem to not mind getting on those and take the food from em easily. havent noticed em trying to jump on the faviates. maybe they have a more stronger sting or something.

 

[blazin2k6]

here are some more pics hope you all like em. Finally got a pic of my yashia. hAVENt really seen it in over a week really. orchid dottyback keeps it from coming out

That sun corals looks real healthy. And Im jealous of that brain bro!

 

[blazin2k6]

Thanks bro, yes the sun coral i think is pretty healthy. i feed it alot lately. so i think thats helping And i wish this brain would open all the way because its truly beautiful in the center of it. looks tie dyed or something.

 

[rebelprettyboy]

I bet u do feed that sun coral all the time. Prolly like 3 times a day since that actually need the food to live. and u feed all the other corals daily lol!!!

 

[blazin2k6]

thx

Here are some pics i took today

my new brain and toadstool

My clowns finally decided to pose for a couple

and does anyone know what that long xenia is in the background ? at night it closes to where you can barely see the stalks but you can see when its fully open its like very very long i like it whatever it is. too bad the mushroom that i paid for on that rock didnt make it. looks like something out it from the center on out.

 

[chroniccoral35]

Love the clowns :> and new coral looks great.

 

[blazin2k6]

Thanks for the comment ChronicCoral35, i appreciate it.

 

[rebelprettyboy]

[blazin2k6]

Thanks alot for the comments as always I appreciate it. I'ma try to do some fragging tomorrow maybe My soapdish is looking empty after i took those two frags to a lfs to trade for those cloves.

 

[nwdyr]

maybe that crab ate your shroom

that is called a pulsating xenia I have some of that to , its crazy how small it gets at nite! +1 on that sun bro

I don't think I have ever seen one so healthy looking. I hope to have some new stuff tomorrow. Hey my sister finally found my a soap dish

hope its like yours. I fragged some RDEs today and really need it for the little frags. Man here I go again talkin about my stuff on your thread sorry bro

 

[rebelprettyboy]

I got me some new stuff today!!

 

[blazin2k6]

Well first off, my sun polyps are probably so healthy because i feed them every single day almost and i try to get each polyp at least 3 pieces of mysis. And when the shrimp come over to try and steal i hit them with my turkey baster and shoo them away.LOL. Hopefully this will not kill them and usually doesnt even actually hit em but hey. they need to stay away. I feed them plenty of food. SHRIMPS ARE SOME HUNGRY LIL DEVILS I SWARE. they try to eat everything and anything. Even dying snails. I pulled one out of a shell and gave it to the shrimp and it went to town on it. And nice on the Pulsing xenia. i was wondering what it was. I really like it. totally cool coral. Dunno why people talk so down on them. And well thanks thats all. I DONT MIND IF YOU GUYS TALK ABOUT OTHER THINGS ON MY THREAD. Your tank or someone elses. it doesnt bother me i just like to see comments here thats all. So goodluck on those new corals from some friend of your nwdyr. i have some safecrackers though and pretty much every zoanthid just not the super rare 20 dollar a polyp ones. LOL.
