A nem of some sort.

Got 4 new sps today. A birds nest, a red monty, what I thought was a green slimmer, and some kind of Jason fox monti, that looks kind of bland in the picture, but I think it will color up nice given the right conditions. Unfortunately, I dont think I actually got a green slimmer. It doesn’t...

I meant Aren’t kidding.Darn autocorrect. Can’t edit posts anymore. I don’t like the changes to the site.

You sin kidding l. Holy cow, this thing is growing fast!

That stuff seems perfect, and fit the budget too. I don’t need messages, just a little preventative measures.

Since I am planing on a kalk stirrer, I am now also interested in monitoring PH, and since I’m getting some automation, I minus well integrate a temp controller as well. My first thought was an Apex JR, but it appears to have been discontinued. The regular apex, does more than I need, and is out...

I am shifting to SPS dominant tank. With this shift, it’s only a matter of time that water changes will not keep up with calcium and alk requirements. I have a 40 display, with about 50 gal total water. What is the best systems for supplementing calcium and alkalinity. Im thinking dosing pump or...

I have been dosing Live Phyto for my 3” clam for the past week. I had it for a month before that. It was doing fine without phyto, but i figure it should benefit from it.

I addaded a new blue chromis today. My original chromis disappeared without a trace a few months ago. I replenished cuc, with some new snails and hermits today. I also got my first acro. Just a basic green stick. I’ve been very well with monti’s, so If this does well, I’m planning to pack the...

Good info. The clam has been a bit more active in general lately, and I had no idea there could be spawning activity in the aquarium. very cool.

I can see a definite increase in activity, particularly its exhale tube extending and retracting in a pulsating fashion. The feeding seems to be stimulating this. I have observed it repeatedly.

As far as feeding the clam, some say it is necessary, and some say it’s not. I don’t target feed it, but when I broadcast feed, with a frozen omnivore blend, this thing really seam to react, and move some water through itself. I personally think it benefits from feeding.

Yea. I coincidentally got a good pic of the mantle there.

Are these bad guys? I have had them around the tank after dark, but I’m noticing them on my clam. They don’t seem to resemble the dreaded pyramid snail.

Update: the clam seems to be anchored down to the rubble that I placed it on. It seems to be doing pretty well.

I through a yellow tang right in my tank, about the same time you got that. Never seen any of those symptoms either. I don’t have second tank, so I’ve been taking a calculated risk. No problems yet.

I run carbon.

Me too, but my monties are taking off, and my lps are just not growing. I haven’t tried Acro’s yet.

Here are a few. That is a green eyed challis behind the watchman goby

Torch hammer, candy cane, green eye something or other, a few other something ore other.
