Ok, theoretical question here...I have a friend who has had this colony of acropora in his tank for ten years since he bought it in L.A., he has it under lights a little lower than mine, and it has flourished, after so long under gradually lower lighting. If I keep a frag of it very close to the sur...

Very nice! Love your candy canes!

PM sent.

Sure woolyt2, PM me I guess.

Chicken switch? I thought that was when you run from your mom when she goes outside and pulls a limb off a tree!?

But on a more serious note; It sure wasn't me!

Ah, but I ask YOU, what if you don't own a belt, huh? What would you do then?

Candy Canes growing well...

That xenia looks EXTREMELY happy... Love your firefish!

Within hours the clam receded into it's shell and began...melting or something...What on earth happened?! He fell down and died...

Okay, so now what?

You're right, and it still stands...I was looking around and got my watts mixed up... :( I put another 36 watts in light on it, but it hangs over the edges a little(came from a 20 long)... Am I wrong for attempting the clam, or wrong for not waiting long enough in the hobby? I assume you mean the re...

OK, I have been researching, for one thing, and is it the tank volume that is too small? The clam's only about four inches from the light, under 130 watts... :( This is from Wet Web: <Looks to be T. Crocea.> I have provided some pics so you can help me out. He is currently sitting about 14" und...
