It is a lower flow area of the tank is that where bristleowms like to hang?

So on my sedbed use to be a large colony of zoas on one side of my 40 breeder. For some unknown reason some of them were always irritated for about a month. So I dipped and put back and it helped for a day then again some closed. So I moved the colony up the rockwork and they are now fine...

thanks for the help and the pm Bennet I will order a switch today I still have my 4 T5's and have mostly softies so I should be ok for a few days.

Traded my previous lighting with someone on craigslist.

So I have had this fixture http://www.marinedepot.com/Current_USA_36_inch_Outer_Orbit_2x150w_10K_HQI_MH_w_4x39W_T5_HO_18_Lunar_Lights_36_Inch_Double_Ended_Metal_Halide_T5_Fixtures_with_Moon_Lights-Current_USA-CU01070-FILTFIMHMTMDMLM5-CU01071-vi.html for about 2 years. Last night I went to...

I believe you are talking about Great Bay Aquarium in San Lorenzo on CL for 33k. Its been for sale for at least a year started around 50k and the price has dropped. I started going there when I first set up my tank and I do regret it. There used to be a guy who worked there who knew his stuff...

Thanks for the comments the monti cap I just wedged between two rocks and its quickly attached. The zoa's in the second pic are lunar eclipse zoa's I picked up at Aquatic Collections there a sponsor and where I got most of my coral from especially the palys and zoas.

Here's some pics (sorry bad camera) from my 40 breeder comments welcome

The yellow ones are my new plays, I like them a lot so in honor of the season I will call them yellow snow!

Its a stomatella snail there great CUC. I used to have alot before I picked up an angel who nips them. Keep him! Also Durtbear I noticed you are also a fan of the "Jahvid Best" do you go to any Cal games? I usually go to all home games this season it was hard to do.

Yeah its looks like a brownish coating, but it looks as though the first dip of revive helped so I am going to do another tomorrow. Anyone know how these infections happen?

Came home and even more were closed it looks as though they are not being eaten but its some type of bacterial infection. My reasoning is because it is only affecting certain types of zoas on mixed colony rocks and not others. The ones closed had a brownish coating which did not look good so I...

I have been researching and may think its Zoa pox. How do I know its and and should I use furan 2 dip? Also how does it spread, the affected zoas in my tank are in seperate areas.

Ok so my tank is a 40 breeder and I have had a coral beauty and a lawnmower blenny for around two years. It has about 35 lbs of live rock and alot of corals mostly zoas/palys, leathers and hammers. So My issue is that certain colonies of zoas are slowly being depleted. At first I was suspect...

Heres my double sided shell crab he cracks me up same shell for like 1.5 years.

fish are a coral beauty and a lawnmower blenny.

Here is some pics from my 40 breeder TruVu aquasystem (built in wet dry which I converted to a refugium). Has about 40 pounds of LR, lighting come from 2 x 150 watt 14k halides and 4 x T5's. One Rio return pump at 480 GPH and one K3 for circulation. Halides run 6 hours a day and the T5's 10...

I have yet to see the starfish on the zoas, however I have been running the tank for over 1.5 years with no issues with zoas opening and closing for no apparent reason. What made me consider that it was an issues is because they have remained closed for over 24 hours which has never happened...

Well I actually have alot of asterina starfish in the tank. I just noticed that the ones on this paticular plug were kinda bluish compared to my others. So the harlequin shrimp would have a source of food for at least a while. Tonight I will just put the lights out early and see what I can catch!

Ok so my tank is zoa dominated and this last week I picked up a favia frag. So my mistake came from not dipping it but I did notice two light blue startfish, looked like asterina stars on the side of the plug. Now two of my larger colonies of zoas have partially closed and my research tells me...
