Senior Reefer yikai Posted August 15, 2011 Senior Reefer Share Posted August 15, 2011 that green and purple majano is actually very beautiful. i would not have thrown it away if i were you. majano doesn't spread as quickly and as rampant as aiptasia. if i were you, i would have isolated it on a separate rock and place it on the sandbed. in time, the entire rock will be covered with that lovely green and purple majano but will not spread elsewhere outside the rock.

jackywongto Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 oh damn! it sure looked like a Majano anemone to me! i got this from the shop in front of ah beng... i've always wanted her duncans at the right side of her display tank, but she is always not willing to sell... after much "nagging" she decided to give me a small "frag" of it... i happily came home and glued it on a rock... now if its Majano anemone i'm gonna be damn can someone confirm it for me? haha... Yes it is a majano Kiko. I had 3 and they never did reproduce. Luminous green in colour. hehe.. you are the first to glue a majano to a rock i think (**its like gluing an anemone to a rock.) poor fella Here's how a duncan looks like. Average about $10 per head and they are very difficult to frag. the ones I have seen are luminous green and biege coloured ones. Try to get the luminous green with the face green coloured as well. They looks nicer imo.

SRC Member TayHongSiang Posted August 16, 2011 SRC Member Share Posted August 16, 2011 taken from http://www.knowledgegalaxy.net/majano_anemone/majano_anemone.html The Majano Problem - The problem the majano anemone presents is that while by itself it appears to be a rather docile creature, minding its own business, it has a disturbing tendency to divide and conquer. In other words it is extremely invasive. One can have an attractive saltwater aquarium, complete with a coral reef and a majano anemone or two, and before long, everything is covered with the anemone. So, it's little wonder that it is an undesirable creature to have. Not only undesirable, but in the view of many, very difficult to bring under control or get rid of. Better not take the risk bro...unless u want a majano dominated tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member poomoon Posted September 7, 2011 SRC Member Share Posted September 7, 2011 nice kiko ... my 2 cents, maybe can make the scape a little less symetrical, and make one of the peaks a higher-rise condo Quote 25 Gal Micro Ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job ! ) Sent from my iPad2 using Tapatalk long way to go... after 4 ft, next year i'll go for 6 ft nahhh.. i'm kidding.. hope to see your 2ft up soon... bet its gonna be another potential Nano TOTM material... ooooooooooooooooooooooo kiko... nice tank.. way to go. lots of real estate to fill thanks desi! intial plan was for my 4ft to be a FOWLR tank so i can collect all the Huge Angels and Tangs... but everytime i pay a visit to any LFS, if any LPS/SPS caught my eye, cannot resist myself not getting them.. haha.. yea and lots of real estate, have to slowly fill it up... not enough moolah... lol... nice kiko ... my 2 cents, maybe can make the scape a little less symetrical, and make one of the peaks a higher-rise condo you mean i should create a "high-low" effect with my rocks? i tried creating "caves", some 3D effect which cannot be captured from the front... but then again, i always suck in scaping.. always turn out unnatural.. the only thing i dont like about reefing is rock-scaping Quote My Decomissioned 2ft Cube: (31st March 2011) Carpe Diem~!!!

SRC Member pokmingsheng Posted September 7, 2011 Author SRC Member Share Posted September 7, 2011 some questions whats the name of this SPS? my RBTA used to be small and nice, over 2months it has grown so quickly! it seem to have lost its "bulb", could this be a case of insufficient light?

SRC Member pokmingsheng Posted September 9, 2011 Author SRC Member Share Posted September 9, 2011 got inspired by Klyve's "Nano" inside sump concept.. decided to do something with this empty space i have in my sump.. any ideas? 1) pack the compartment with beautiful clams? reduce the level of sand 2) collect different kind of gobies? 3) keep slow moving LS like seahorse and pipefish? and no i dont think i'll convert it into a frag tank.. haha...

SRC Member pokmingsheng Posted September 26, 2011 Author SRC Member Share Posted September 26, 2011 Just to share a pair of watanabei angelfish that I added 2 weeks ago... both from CF, feeding very well on pellets... sadly the female didnt make it few days back... it suddenly became "shy" and before i know it, came home one day to find it lying on my sandbed... how sad... here are some pictures i took when they first arrived.. the male is still around, always out in the open... will be looking out for a new partner for him... photo taken using iPhone, do bear with the "blur-ness", fishes swim too fast sometimes...
