Eastern Front

A somewhat blurry action shot from the Eastern Front. Notice the Star polyp invasion and shading air superiority by the xenia.

They climb as they grow and leave pieces behind which turn into new stalks. They tend to go nearer the light and with the flow. Some random stalks have show up; those are the mysterious ones.

You must have a smoke detector in the same room as the aquarium. That is where the alien landers come in to advance xenia growth in your aquarium. They are sneaky little guys.

I float the bag and and tank water a few times over about thirty minutes. Never have had a problem. Usually, the coral looks better in my tank after an hour or two than it ever looked at the LFS.

At my house, the aquarium gets more attention than the TV. Always something interesting in the reef, not so with Directv.

Remora

I run mine with a MJ 1200. You can run it with a different pump if you want to, but a MJ 1200 is sufficient. The Remora skimmer does a great job for me.
