Wow, my female Tomato Clown is an absolute pig! I just fed the tank with NLS Thera +A and she ate evey pellet I threw in there before anyone else could get any. lol The male have gotten 1 or 2, the grammas didn't get any.

Are those sinking or floating pellets? I am going to switch to sinking because of that same problem in my tank. One swimming pig and the others are lucky to get one or two. I am hoping with sinking pellets the pig won't have time to get from one end of the tank to the other to scarf them up.

I have the 1mm sinking pellets. I have a good amount of flow in my tank and the pellets stay suspended in the water column for quite a while so everyone gets a chance to eat them. The Grammas have not yet adapted to the pellets. For right now, they are still spitting them out. That will change, but it takes time.

Well, the inevitable has happened. LOL I was looking to sell or trade some misc. pieces of equipment that I have around the house... and I got rid of a brand new pair of glass lids for an Aqueon 75gal tank. What did I get for them?

...soft corals.

I saw your trade thread over on the reef tank and laughed when I saw you looking for softies. Everyone knew it was only a matter of time until it happened

LOL

Well, thanks to Triska, we are getting some. She talked me into it. LOL My wife was supportive of it as well. I'm probably going to add a Koralia Smartwave to the system with the soft corals. I really like the design, and the fact that they are designed to work with the older Koralia pumps.

I watched a video about that system, It looks like it should be a great addition especially for the price when compared to some other similar systems.

**ILuvMyGoldBarb** · 11-13-2011, 08:30 PM

$70 isn't bad at all. The nice thing is, I have 4 Koralia 3's on the system, so I will have 3 running at all times. I will likely leave the 2 inside pumps running full time, and let the 2 outside ones alternate.

haha it was only a matter of time softies are fun though so colorful and so easy haha

Yeah, so obviously the Emperor Angel is now officially out of the picture. lol But, on the bright side, that means I'll be changing the stocking just slightly to include a couple of my favorite Tangs.
