I would take it out everynight an hr before the lights went out and feed him that way 3 times a week. I am still doing it-

estanoche · I <3 the LEFT COAST!

nice growth shots!!!! just wait, you will have such a huge colony it will be invincible - never recede again

cdangel0 · Geek Story Teller

That's really cool - love growth shots.

Earlier you said you "take it out" to feed it - do you mean you take it out of the tank?? I can't imagine any coral will put it's feeders out while out of water.

Barbara · Geekette

holy moly!!! I hope we have growth like that with ours!!!

........I'm also interested in just how and what you feed it

Tank2379 · Reef-Geek

I will shoot a video of my Feedings I use a small rectangle plastic container bought from Target for like $1. I do take it out and put the in the container.

chris&barb · Lost

id like to see a video of that.

Doesnt even look like the same coral from the first photos. Is it just the photos or is the color really changing that much?

Tank2379 · Reef-Geek

Depending on the lighting it was turning a light purple then it started changing to t's pinkish color in the middle. Bu et me on this video o can how you what I do.
