Very nice tank.

I brought a rainbow chalice with 3~4 small eyes. It just introduced to tank several days ago. I found there are no polyps extension even at night.

It was placed at the bottom shade area of the frag tank. slow flow. kessil led blue only.

Sorry I am just seeing this post now. I would recommend feeding it at night about an hour after lights go out. Turn off all the flow and place some very fine food like Rods coral blend on it and let it sit for an hour. The eyes should absorb the food. Shoot me a PM if you have any other questions. Hope this help, good luck.

Also, when you said you "cut this bounce 4 months ago", you meant that you fragged it in halves or what?

Thanks bro, they are honesty one of my favorite acans. They just get better and better.

As for the the bounce, I just cut a piece off the original and let it grow out.

I thought it was just me. Glad to see someone else felt the same. Everything they brought was mediocre at best. Last years show was way better!

Well this year's scolymia selection was better than last year's though and I was looking for some nice master scolys which I got to buy this year but man, I don't remember what was there last year since I was doing a scoly tank only that time and my main focus was the scoly selection..lol. This year I'm doing lps and mushies so only got my hands on a jawbreaker mushie and CC vapor mushie from this past RAP.
