Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Oh wow I didn’t know they could move . Did you just put the food in its mouth? Is the mouth the hole that is on it or is it the little thing sticking out? Also how can you tell the difference between these clams
You tell the difference by their shells.
 
We have tickets for the whole family to see Gaelic Storm in October. Really looking forward to it, although my oldest will be out of town and miss it. It's in the Hult Center in Eugene and they require you to buy a seat for every age, even Adelaida has to have a ticket. Hope she enjoys it. 😄
That's going to be an amazing experience for you all. I bet they're fantastic live. Im sure she'll enjoy the show and the photos forever
 
O

Ok got it. I just moved it up how is that. Should I feed the Phyto directly to it and spray it on it?

Seems ok. I can't stop looking at the rest of the tank!
 
@Reef Devils I'm not expert but I think that might be a Derasa?
 
@Üter I keep trying to send you a video of a Nita Stauss solo from last night but I cant figure out how to make the video small enough to send. It's almost 2 minutes

Ill just have to send screen shots lol
 
Amanda, Paul forgot how to type for a little bit here I think:

Apocs, Tisbe, and Tigri(Tigger)
I just copied and pasted from their bottle label.
So I guess the picture recognition to text was off. 🧐

I just pipetted phyto around it in general. But yes they have a foot. That foot will/May dig into rock to secure itself too.

That's good. I was getting ready to call 911... I was afraid you were having a stroke.
