Not too sure, but Some of ma zoas are not opening all the way like they did a few weeks/months agodo they harm something ?
are they still on the glass and over the LR after the lights come ?Not too sure, but Some of ma zoas are not opening all the way like they did a few weeks/months ago
I do have some detris...and they are on the rocks, rear of tanks on the purple algea...(some REally Fat, others normal size)are they still on the glass and over the LR after the lights come ?
Most of the bad asterina stars are hiding fast when the lights are on.
if you never saw them over coral I'll bet they are good then, and multiply because of what I say above
So just watch them, if they aren't over any of your corals, they will do good job for youI do have some detris...and they are on the rocks, rear of tanks on the purple algea...(some REally Fat, others normal size)
One day, I pulled out about 10 using a net...thinking they were all gone...and BAM..just like that, they were creepn on the sandbed to a live rock...i just shock ma headI have no use for them especially after they took down a colony of bam bam zoas
Remove daily with a small net and eventually they’ll all be gone
Where did u get urs shrimp from and for how much?I got a Harlequin 2 days ago, because of all the asterina in my tank they just appeared in mass. Hoping the shrimp will take care of the issue before they take out any corals.
just have on mind about the shrimp: once it can't find food anymore it will struggle to death if you don't feed it. Some people are buying chocolate starfish and cutting legs to feed the shrimp (it's fast growing starfish and cheap usually and they keep it in the sump away from the shrimp).Where did u get urs shrimp from and for how much?
yep, that's the other choice, and if you can make a "deal" like with them to give you back half of the money to resell it.., can be great thenYou forgot another choice, returning to the LFS
my only fare is i have a Xmas wrasse...i think he ate my two peppermint shrimps...i have a cleaner shrimp that he doesn't botherLocal LFS, I think it was $25. It’s a pink one, they had a couple more, and a pair, one pink one blue. Almost got those 2, but was not sure how long before they would run out of food
they grow a bit big..., can damage the shrimp then ...my only fare is i have a Xmas wrasse...i think he ate my two peppermint shrimps...i have a cleaner shrimp that he doesn't bother
