    Sponge, maybe?

    Just noticed this thing last night back in a crevice. It has dimples much like a golf ball. About the diameter of a dime. Seems to have a mucous membrane surrounding the main "body" and also a "nipple" sticking up. There's also a smaller pea sized one near this one (but it isn't in the...

    Maybe upgrading from CF to T5...questions

    Well, I guess I hadn't given much thought to it. It's the Coralife high output T5 lunar fixture -- it comes with two 10000K and 2 Actinic lights already. What kind of bulbs _should_ I be thinking about? What else is there?

    Maybe upgrading from CF to T5...questions

    Decided to go with a 4 bulb setup. Should be here in a couple days. Figured I shouldn't be too cheap.

    Maybe upgrading from CF to T5...questions

    Thanks. I've got some zoas, anthelia, xenia, starburst polyps, frogspawn...I think that's it. I don't plan on getting any SPS corals. In my tiny little mind I was thinking 2 24" lights (actually they're 21") would be equivalent to one full-length 48", but I didn't know if that theory holds...

    Maybe upgrading from CF to T5...questions

    I bought a used 55 gallon tank setup and it came with a 48" Coralife fixture that has 2 24" 10000k and 2 24" actinic compact fluorescent lights. Basically it is this: Coralife 48 Inch Aqualight With 2-65W Actinic / 2-65W 10,000K Lamp Straight Pin Base I'm looking to upgrade to T5's and am...

    Grassy looking stuff

    I'm wanting it to take over my rock. I have an island that it can have all to itself! Thanks again.

    Grassy looking stuff

    Ok, thanks. The guy must have used the scientific name on me, 'cause I would have remembered starburst polyp. lol.

    Zoanthid growth?

    I bought a decent sized zoanthid frag from my lfs about 3-4 weeks ago. I can tell it has grown bigger...the "stalks" are much taller now. How long before it starts moving onto and covering the rock it's sitting on? That's what I want...for it to spread. It has heads all the way down to the...

    Grassy looking stuff

    I don't think the guy called it a polyp. Here's another view that may help.

    Grassy looking stuff

    I just got this today from my lfs and I can't remember what it is! :banghead: It looks like grass blowing in the wind. The "holes" where the stalks of grass come out are spaced relatively far apart at the base...1/8" to 1/4". Not sure if that's enough info??

    Some kind of worm??

    Ok, cool! Thanks everyone. It's kind of neat to watch it come out and search around for food. I'm new at this....I love to sit and watch all the living organisms in my tank, ones that I didn't knowingly put there!

    Some kind of worm??

    Thanks for the feedback. Don't brittle star legs have little spikes coming from them? This is smooth. Also, there is just one that ever comes out and if it gets scared it retracts, but like I said I've seen it about 1.5 inches out. If it really is a brittle star, how big will it get? Will it...

    Some kind of worm??

    I have a 55 gallon aquarium about 4 weeks old and the last several days I've seen this thing coming out of my sand. It has been in the same place. It's translucent white and as thick as a couple hair strands...no feathery stuff, just a smooth looking "tentacle." It comes out and...
