jcdeng..i feed it mysis soak in this vit something like amino i gotta go check what its called,i got it as one of the free products that my lfs gave me on their sale event...i feed it once a week or twice if i dont get lazy,but it eats a lot in feedings...tentacles captures a chunk of mysis and the process of swallowing takes place..most of the time the mouth fights for the food :D

so heres another update on my bahama mama...2 weeks of another growth...its almost there covering the big plug disc..i think the disc is 2 inches,i dont know if once it overgrown the plug will it plates out or should i put a flat rock and put epoxy around like i see on others to get that nice growth?
im gonna try to keep up to date on the growth of this chalice...last eye already put out tentacles...so its officially 4 single mouth and 1 huge double mouth...though it looks like one of the eyes is trying to merge to another eye,hopefully not.. :D
again excuse my green cyano..

Great growth on that Bahama Mama.

I might have to start weekly mysis target feeds to all my chalices.
