thanks. First lessons... Fish seem to like it, but there was a hunk of something in there that was just too big for anything to eat. I probably overfed. One thing for sure, though... my many...

I'm pretty happy with my AquaC Remora. It's an HOB model that would do the job. Or you could go with the Urchin model for in-sump. They are less expensive and quite effective.

Feeding a Candy Cane

I just got my first LPS, a candy cane. How and what can/should I feed it? It doesn't want to open under actinics... it must be dark. Should I do anything special?
