Hi, Once the sponge started to turn white, you should remove them from the tank to avoid 'spoiling' your water. You can 'frag' the healthy part out with a scissor or pen knife and wedge it into a crevice where there is strong current... it will then regrow from there on. To keep sponge in the tank, you need to find a good spot in the tank where the current is strong and preferably with wave motion - the latter will ensure that it grow upward; my experience with blue sponge is that if put in a one-direction current, it tends to grow weird extensions. IMO, blue sponge is not easy to keep... if you want to start with sponge, get the orangey-pink sponge - it is very hardy and can adapt to different current... do note that it tends to attract algae if the current is not strong.

Hi, The review on Phosban looks interesting... anyone has Reef N Nature's contact number? Anyone knows the price range for the product? Regards... Raiden

Hi all, Thanks for the advice... will leave it at the current location... I think it is adjusting and it looks slightly better... Regards... Raiden

Hi, Yes... it is interesting... my lobo only seems to be open during the night... it expanded very nicely after the light is out but when the lights comes on... it strunk to reveal the sharp parts of the skeleton (about 2-3mm)... hope this is alright... have shifted it to another location to see if it will open during the day... more advice will be appreciated. Regards... Raiden

Hi, Thanx for the advice. I shifted the lobo to another location last night and it seems to open a little bit this morning... hoped that it is alright by the time I go back home... Regards... Raiden

Hi all, I bought my first lobo (pink rim and creamy-green centre) 2 days ago and have placed it on the sandbed... sad to say, it doesn't seem to open... wondering if this is usual? Was told by the lfs the coral just arrived and hence did not open. Wonder if anyone can share with me what lobo prefers (i.e. location, water current, light, etc)... am hoping that it will survive as it is a waste to see such nice coral die. I read somewhere that lobo is sensitive to the presence of soft coral... anyone know if this is true? I have a few carnation soft coral in the tank FYI, my other LPS and SPS are doing fine... Regards Raiden
