I have bought 2 peppermint to help with the overload of aptiasia's. Hopefully they will eat them up quickly.Should i get more I have over 60 little ones growing. I have a some pictures and if anyone knows what these things are or how they eat please let me know...(good-bad) I believe one is a baby starfish. What are the supplements-food you put in the water for them, has anyone heard of invert. gumbo??(food) is it good?? I have read so may books and still am kinda clueless about all of this, any book i should read to help me out.. i've had my first tank for one year, and just upgraded to a 90 g a couple of months ago. how do you get coraline algee to spread/grow, seems like its there where we get the rock and then slowly goes away. all of our levels are good. and we have a coralife compact light, not sure of the watts just know that there are double linear day & double linear night and some ?luner? lights for at nighttime.How long does it take for things to start to grow? for the pic's: the first picture it looks like it broke in half will it be ok? And in the last one in the lower left there are one purple and one green thing along with Bright neon yellowish-green spots they look upclose like they are hard with tiny holes all over,ANY IDEAS ON ANY OF THIS??
