cool cool, good to hear mate ;)

 

[chris B]

the pulstating Xenia & Morphs has been doing great in the tank and no more fish deaths ( touch wood ) the anthasis have been feeding more , which would help them

 

[NiCd]

has the xenia grabbed onto the rocks now?

 

[chris B]

yes it has i have another spare lots in thr 2ft which is going great as well, the first time i have completed fragging and its going great guns, next challenge is morphs

 

[NiCd]

easist way with morphs is leave them where they are and just cut them down the centre through the mouth, they will then separate into two morphs

hi all,
It has been now 6 weeks and the levels has been great and no changes to the levels at all, the fish are doing well and eating like pigs , i am wondering if i can add a new fish to the tank, these are currently waiting in the 2ft tank so far to be transferred across to this tank.or do i want another couple of more weeks, before adding any more fish, i have added morphs and they are doing great at present.

 

[MTG]

give it another 4 weeks chris :)

 

[NiCd]

Its only been 17 days since your last addition, key your hands wet in your other tank and leave this one alone :p

 

[Joshwaaaa]

The longer you leave it the better it will be in the long run

 

[NiCd]

i am not touching the tank, i will wait for a while , so it can build up then over time.

 

[chris B]

[NiCd]

What about transfering across some of your soft corals to add a bit more interest?
