We could talk to them and see, it doesn't hurt to ask.
I would love another pulsating xenia, I lost mine early on due to an alkalinity spike. Watch the reef code B.

He wants 5$ for a 1 inch frag of pulsating xenia and 5$ for a 2 inch drag of cabbage leather

I may get the pulsating xenia.

I think I'll pass on that. I have too much plant life already. Lol.

I love your new scape! You tucked that dendro in nicely. Do you have a helfrichi firefish or is it a purple firefish? Whichever it is, it's gorgeous!

Thank you! I'll be working on the right side soon also. I'm hoping the Dendro will appreciate the shade. It's a purple firefish and I love his colors too.

I raised my airstone up to the top of my skimmer tube in my skilter 400 yesterday. I wasn't happy with the amount being collected on a weekly basis. I'm happy today with the results. After just under 24hrs it pulled out twice as much as the previous 7 day period. It's not as dark but definitely works better near the surface.
Dendrophyllia still hasn't opened, starting to think I made a bad decision getting it.

Maybe they will trade you for something else

I found this on another site.
They said to take a liter bottle and cut in half. Then place over dendro and target feed inside the half bottle with a small amount and if you see tentacles start to come out give it more. They said it will train it?

It's bleaching out along the bottom and one tube is open and you can see into the base where it is all white, obviously dead. I doubt they will trade me a healthy coral for a dying coral. It's cemented into place.

The liter bottle is a cool idea though. Keeps flow off it some and keeps food around him longer

Yeah that sucks... They cut it off the big one right? That may be part of it. I would take it to them and see if they can get it to do better in their tank. if you have to get another one I would get one that has been there a bit and is doing good... Just a thought

[apet66]

That was a good link, I actually tried pushing thawed marine cuisine into the tubes, no luck. I'll try the bottle trick, also may pick up some better food.
