So far everything seems to be running ok. Took the domino damsel back to the pet store. Thinking about getting a protein skimmer not sure yet. I have had some mixed thoughts over it. Some say yay some say nay. for a 30gal. Funny you said the flame hawk nibbled at the stars. Well he did nibble at the other coral the one he is in the pic with. When i saw him do it the dang coral fell off the stone he was living on and i guess swam for safety he is somewhere behind the wall of live rock... not sure if he is dead or what.. didnt feel like hunting for him... any suggestions on that.
well he fell off yesterday and i guess is somewhere behing the wall of rock. wont be able to search for him until tommorow morning sometime. You think he would still be alive?
most likely still alive and waiting for your retrieval...sometimes i cant get to some frags in the same situation as yours and a day wont hurt to bad on some species but the sooner you get to it the better.
You have corals now? I would definitely use a skimmer!!!
Not sure which one to tell you of, I've never had a 29g. Check on marinedepot.com ... they have good customer reviews of products.
well i have 9 tanks without skimmers and they run fine ...good practices with water perameters would be the most important thing...then lighting...there are some corals that dont tolerate dissolved organics but it would appear you have a few that actualy like some in the water.if you can get a skimmer do but with the corals you have i wouldnt run it 24 - 7 just half the day or during heavy feeding.
actualy scratch that...is that an acropora in the left hand upper corner? if that is the case you will be wanting the skimmer..
