    Who ate my prata?

    in LPS Coral forum

    Posted

    hahaha..all the best. think it's better not to feed ur prata now as it's very stress.

    just leave it alone and let it slowly recover back then u feed it.

    that's what i did becos when it's very stress, not only it doesn't eat but also causes more stress in the end.

    and new prata or cynarina also find it hard to devour the food at first becos they are stress up and not used to this kinda feeding.

    that's just my observation, maybe u can observe more for urs.

    If urs is doing good with feeding, then guess it might be alright. :)

    cheers.

    cowrie is the culprit...swear with my pratas...i have one bicolor prata gone with it and one red cynarina nearly gone with it too...lucky i noticed fast enough and put the cowrie in the sump. or else will have lost that cynarina too.

    it think cowrie is not 100percent reef-safe. even that mine is a deer-cowrie which claims to be reef-safe.

    it climb on to my bicolor prata which it retract and i tot it just eating some algae or passing by.

    But to my surprise, it did that quite often and stay for sometime.

    i dun really see it eating becos their mouth and eating is really hard to observe.

    but the prata grow smaller and smaller and the meat becomes like urs.

    lucky urs is like the condition of my cynarina.

    I suggest u dump the cowrie into the sump and let the prata slowly grow back.

    my cynarina grow back on it's own after sometime.

    think it takes abt few months....depends on the injury

    An "expensive" experience...for us.

    CHEERS.

    haha..thanks...seldom look at green brain section in lfs..always browse at their red ones, so didn't notice it's lime green also. find it hard to determine the coral's true color when most lfs uses actinic lighting...:)

    cheers.

    They just disappeared after a couple of days, either being blown away by the wave or melted... Now i put them at the lowest flow area and let's hope they will be ok.. :peace:

    Regarding bleaching, so far my corals look ok. I am using 4 tube 39W HO T5 only, maybe your light too strong? Or could it be due to lack of some trace element such as iodine for colour enhancement?

    oic..maybe my lights are too strong...how often u dose ur iodine ? i dose it once a week...scared overdose..haha..becos once i overdose, algae will start growing slowly...and overdose can affect sps also as i have some.

    ur corals colors are very vibrant. :eyebrow:

    that green brain's green is also very unique.lime green.

    nice oxypora there..:) how much u get it ? i was thinking of acquiring one but dun know the market price. can pm me ?

    the color is really nice but sadly it doesn't bloat or open like cup coral...or does it ? : :o

    thanks alot.

    and i see that most of your corals are on the rocks, u have any problem with bleaching ? cos my lps tends to bleach when i place them on the high rocks...:( using t5s also.

    cheers.
