You have an awesome brain

Honestly I don't think you HAVE to feed any of these... but I still feed my corals now and then and I wait until after the lights go out when they extend their tentacles. My candy cane, favias, even sps have full extention then and believe thats when they can benefit the most.
The lps are easy to feed then and you can see them grab food and close up... and they have to as my shrimp are little hogs and try and steal food

Nice bubbles
Now I want one too - thanks alot.
Spanko posted a pic of the sweepers somewhere... Kinda look like the tentacles from a Haitian anemone.
Not sure the Gorg's best home is in the seahorse tank. They need pretty heavy flow from what I understand so that they can shed properly. (I could be wrong on that.)

No, you are right....I was thinking of putting it in the 225....but I really like it in the horse tank too
....I have a small red one in the horse tank...it is very hard to keep clean.

How have you got the gorg attached? Is it glued to that rock, or just set in there?
I've been eyeing up a little red one at LFS, but it's not attached to anything - keeping it in a high flow area may prove problematic if I can't glue it to a frag rock.

Been a day-day and a half, patience my dear ms. kitty, patience.
PATIENCE
That word should be banned from vocabulary

I just didn't know if this tentacle thing was something that should be happening right away....SOOOO this is something that takes time to happen? It does not tell you that in a book or in the bubble description
I have tried to be good and look stuff up....lol...

LOL...It didn't come on a rock like my previous one did...I just happened to have this rock that had a hole exactly the size of the gorg base...so I just sat it in there...this way I can move it or do whatever I want with it..later
cause I'm a patient person...don't ya know

Maybe moving to Oklahoma from being a New York girl did not really affect you at all. Maybe you just went on about your business as normal because New York girls are fearless, forward and afraid of nothing!!!!!!
Coral on the other hand has gone from being plucked out of the ocean, bagged and shipped and shipped and shipped then acclimated to a tank the bagged and shipped ad nauseum.
They take time to settle down, chill out, relax, get their bearings.....................then..........WHAM........out come the sweepers and all nearby coral beware!!!!!!!!

LOL...Believe me...a NY girl has to go through a lot of changing to live here...
....I had to give up BAGELS
with LOX
Do you know my husband and step sons DIDN'T know what a bagel was)
OK...so it is normal for the sweepers to not be out yet
THANK YOU for easing my mind.....once again

OK...I tried to take a video to show the "movement" on my bubble....I know it kinda stinks, but let me know if you can tell if the current is okay...

Looks good to me...if the bubbles were really whipping around or folded over, that would be bad but again, looks good. Feed him a few small pieces of silversides once a week after lights out and he will do great!
