The ZFA DM aka nightmares are still doing fine. the 3 new have been opening up though growth seems to have slowed a little. I haven't checked around back though so maybe a bud or two mgiht be coming up. Total polyps remains at 7.
I will get a pic of the rainbows later and post it. A couple new buds on those, but growth seems slower with them.
If any think that another member might do better with them I have no problem whatsoever. I too want the best growth for them.
I have had them a month today I believe.

Well, the rainbows do have some new growth after all. I try to avoid touching them as mucha s I can so never was able to get a look around the back side. Looks like 2 open and one budding polyp. Total 9 polyps now on the rainbows, maybe it is 10, I will have to re-count it once they close up for the evening.

I am going to be doing some intensive feeding here soon. I notice the nightmares are little pigs when it comes to eating. Each polyp catches and eats. Rainbows do pretty well also.
I haev been mixing brine shrimp, silversides, mysis and daphnia and blending it all together and soaking in phytomax. I thought I would try the Zoomax once I hear from Codylowe on how it has worked for him and will order some cyclops and maybe some of the coral frenzy if I can find a place that has it. No local shops here carry them. Can't understand why. The local shops are kind of geared toward the feeding of fish more than corals. This area is still quite of behind in things.

Wow both frags still look AMAZING! I think your a great person for them to be at for a grower outer person. 3 and 4 new polyps a month on rare zoos sounds really good!

The latest on the rainbows. The new polyps are jsut about full grown. I will be imbedding the disc into some rock this weekend so the polyps can spread.
Thought I would toss a pic of my latest angler. Just got it today. I can't get over how much it resembles a white sponge with algae tuffs growing.

Those rainbows are very nice! Im gonna need some of those!
And that Angler is so ugh. I want one. I dare not ask what the price tag for one with that color was... Saw one online something like that very expensive!

It was about what you would pay anywhere for a med one. $140 with tax. All I found online was about $10 less but then there is shipping and not seeing it in person.

No pics right now. I fragged the crap out of them couple days ago. They are fine but I wanted to get some faster growth out of them. Both the nightmares and rainbows. The nightmares were going a little too slow and the rainbows out growing the disc they were on.
This should set them off to grow faster. I will post some new pics once they readjust. The rainbows do have one new polyp, the nightmare no new growth. Hopefully this will spur them on to fill out the open spots and grow new polyps.
