Hmmm...I mix coralplankton, bioplankton, marineplankton, golden pearls, cyclopeeze and selcon into a potent mix before I pour in the mixture. I off the circulation to the sump and skimmer for 2-3 hours everyday for the animals to feast.

[nicholasloh]

where do u get the selcon ah?

[]v[edia]

wah.. nice sea fan u got.. is it hard to keep ??

[FuEl]

nicolasloh>> Try eaquarist at siglap drive..I bought my selcon from them when they first brought it in.

]v[edia>> Supposedly the seafan I keeping rated for expert care at www.liveaquaria.com...but I'm experimenting as I can afford to have a nutrient saturated tank now. Main problems for their demise is the lack of adequate feeding, lack of proper water current and being smothered by algae. Currently I know how to tackle these 3 problems. Will see how it goes. Did a little reading up and placed the concave side of the seafan facing the current. Only time will tell if its doing well.

Not really. I kept seafans in the past they all died. But at least now I can afford to feed them as my tank is meant to be nutrient laden. See how it goes. The easy to care for seafans would be the brown photosynthetic kind. They look very bushy and can be found quite often.

Gave them away..

O...not going into SPS already?

[FuEl]

Hehe...urocaridella sp. shrimps...collection starts again.. Managed to get 3 so far.. Notice the copepod swarm on the right side of the glass...will be a feast for my mandarin tomorrow when I transfer him over from the tank on the right..

[FuEl]

Is the yuma splitting? Not sure if I should be happy or should I be worried?

[DeepBlue]

you should be very worried...short of lugols dip.....it is very very difficult to save this guy

I have lost so many yumas like that..............

Wah don't worry me leh..this guy should be splitting..which I hope it is doing.. cause the foot is stretching outwards..been like that for weeks already..

[DeepBlue]

good luck....the prob with yumas is that they are sensitive...he stress from splitting may killed it....

thought the yuma looked stressed already when you got it

All the best...hope you can save the special looking yuma

share a pic with you ..can you see the bubbly part disppearing...that is usually the beginning of the end

Hmmm..on 2nd thoughts I wait few more days see what happen. I was suppose to cut up this guy long ago but did'nt dare to as it seemed to be splitting. Until now still like that...wonder what taking it sooo long.. Oh well..think I wait and dose more iodine see what happen. So far other yumas all doing well..even butchered ones..
