Dosing brine shrimp?

[NeMoo]

Love my digi colony! It's a fast grower with a mind of its own.

Didn’t mean to post twice


And the big ones on the bottom, don’t wanna guess and say wrong as I’m not familiar with those yet!

Are the reddish ones sun coral?

Also loving the bigger pieces at the bottom, don’t want to guess names wrong!!

Also are the reddish ones in the middle sun coral/turbastrea(if I’m correct)??

That’s awesome, can’t wait to see them start growing, I feel I’m just now hitting my stride to keep acros growing! and knock on wood lol.

Love these lighter colored acros as well!!!!

Thank you! Those are battle corals frags. Far left is Nuclear Table and the other is called Lemon peel!

Those are Fathead dendrophyllia. They're similar and Non Photosynthetic, like sun corals, but are open during the day. In my experience with sun corals, they're beautiful but they hardly ever open up.

On the sandbed you have: Warpaint scoly (orange) wellsophyllia (rainbow color) and Cynarina (red). All easily kept corals with big personalities!

I will have to check out battle corals, I feel like I’ve heard the name and possibly something about grow out competitions? Either way they look stunning so I may have to put that on my wishlist, and then the bigger scolys and big meaty looking ones are on my list lol….

Just made a trip today though and crossed some off my wish list….

I’ve been wanting an Acan colony since I got a free one that was dying and now has bounced back from one head to a very healthy two full heads and the little ones!!

And I’ve also been wanting a green trumpet frag to match my tealish blue ones….. got more than a frag lol but I think it was a great price!!

As well as some mushrooms that are a little crazy looking…..

And a Red Sea set up that has been what looks to really well resealed if not more than enough silicone lol but it’s the one with a 72 display and like I said he resealed the whole front piece and then all the other edges looked like a fresh bead and maybe even a little excess, don’t know if I should trust it or not but I think I’m gonna go for it, I got it cheap enough it was worth it for the sump and ato so either way.

I love acans and have been on a mushroom kick lately! Yours are very cool!

Thank you!! I didn’t think I could get that excited about a mushroom, have to go back for some yellow ones soon

Ya same... I always used to just gloss over them at the store and online. But for whatever reason they just really do it for me lately

Honestly though, I was browsing online and seen some yellow ones and now I’m thinking shortly I’ll need to be finding some lol. I sent you a message if you’re interested in one.

So I just recently set up my Red Sea aquariums four head doser. I’m currently set up with 1 ml of seachems part 1Ca and 2 ml of seachems part 2Kh. I just ordered a brine shrimp hatchery, and I feel like I’ve seen mention of it so with that being said does anybody tried or have experience dosing brine shrimp, and keeping them alive to dose? And while I’m at it? Any thoughts on something to use the final head for assuming I use the third for brine shrimp?

Also was cool watching bday bash, congrats reef2reef!

And of course, I have to post a pic of two

It’s a low cost (a jar of eggs lasts forever using only 1 scoop of the BRS stuff) and pretty quick way to mix up feeding imo. Plus it’s fun watching fish chase them.

I use the BRS hatchery and eggs too. I also sometimes stuff their gullets with spirulina for about an hour before adding them to the tank. I dose copepods, brine shrimp and phytoplankton and the whole tank seems happy.

I've come across this cool brine shrimp doser for this guy's (very!) large jellyfish tank (skip to 3:18):
