Here are 2 more pics.unfortunately I found 2 small spots that the skeleton is showing but it looks good to me .what do you guys think ? Also does anyone think I should target feed this coral?thanks

 

[Sniperhank]

Looks fine to me. I don't target feed mine.

 

[Hondatek]

Ok thanks Hank. There are so many mixed theorys on whether or not to feed corals. As well as a lot of stuff in this hobby LOL .

My brains do great without feeding, 1+ years and almost one year. Super slow growers, but look great. To be fair I have a lobo and a carpet lobo, so a bit different.

I target feed my wellso sometimes.

 

[Hondatek]

Thanks for the reply's. My thinking since I don't broadcast feed like a normal tank there is no chance of the corals picking anything out of the water column. Which is why I was wondering if I should . I haven't fed any of the other corals but this is my first expensive coral so I want be sure it gets what it needs. I might try it once just to see it eat lol .

So after finding stomatella snails at night I have been searching for other cool hitchhikers. I found some things even better. There is another head growing on my acan and there also is an extra mouth on my frogspawn . Here is a night pic of slagathor who by the way eats anything I give him now even without a fish head and a fts.

Pretty sweet monti!

 

[Hondatek]

Thanks . Too bad the angler has been sitting on it for a hour lol. I might have to epoxy this one whenever he decides to move .

 

[aadair22]

Lol I think I might have to do that with a paly frag.. Every day I get home from work my emerald crab has knocked it over >_< and I know it's him because I've seen him underneath it several times and even move it before.. Lol
