John, This is my thread and Rbaby has hijaked it, Just Kidden... She would be a good consultant since she has ventured into Blastos longer than me.... I just started but have heard that you may spot feed them, but you don't have to.... I do keep them in low light in my tank, close to the...

Johnanddawn, Welcome to our site, you have have tapped into a market full of valueable information regarding nano tanks. As a matter of fact I'm what you might call an expert regarding the JBJ 12 gallon cube. I have two of them modded out and have lots and lots of pictures and data on them...

Here are two pictures of my new blastomussa... They are not the greatest, since I took them over lunch break and had to rush.... But they give you an idea... I'll post over the weekend some better pics.... Mike

Rbaby, According to my little bro, you are very cool and someone that loves the hobby like us. My wife and I would welcome a visit from a fellow reefer anytime. As a matter of fact I've been bugging Dragon and his girlfriend to drive up to visit me just for a weekend. If he ever takes...

Sugar Magnolia, Not at all, you have been and still are extremely informative on nano reefing. I just was so BLOWN AWAY FROM YOUR RESPONSE I ALMOST FELL OUT OF MY CHAIR!!! Seriously, I felt like my LFS did me wrong in not telling me the facts about sand sifting stars and my little brother...

Rbaby, This world is too small. Joleen and Ming are who sold me all my SPS corals. I live right around the corner from them. I get my water changes from them every sunday. Joleen is very special to me and just yesterday I installed her ICA in her cube. I got her to get a cube up on her...

I would like to know more on goby life in captivity. I learned that the catalina goby has a short life span in captivity, that said I remember mine use to die every 5 to 6 months. I use to love that goby becuase of there colors.... Mike

Rbaby, Are you talking about Atlantis Aquarium in Fremont California? Because that's where I shop and I know that Ming the owner takes pictures of his blastos from top down like you were explaining. Mike

Rbaby, Your blastos are awesome, I almost thought I was looking through Tigah's thread oops,,, j/k... They are really nice. But after carefully examining all your blastos, mine is very different it is neon green in the middle and it has bright orange on the outer rim. It cost me a...

DJ, Can members below 15 posts vote for you? Mike

Wow, I didn't know that, now that I do I'll make sure to dose hard in December so I can give my tank a jolly snowy season, j/k.... Couldn't resist.... Mike

Wow, DJ I thought it too was going to be a rumble in the jungle. Especially since johnanddawn only has about 25 posts. To me that tells me he's just a lurker and not a foremost provider of consistent feedback like Incysor. But I was like anyone that wants to argue with someone with...

Incysor, Thanks for your response, I'll have to catch them when I see them next and trade them in. They are very small stars, the size of a fifty sent piece. Mike

DJ, Can you please tell me if a sand sifting star is a serpentine star? I'm a little worried that my LFS would sell me a predator star and not warn me about my two nano cubes... Mike

Incysor, What is your opinion on the matter? Mike

Okay, So there is all this hype on how to keep you sand bed nice and white. I get all this slack from Dragon that my sand bed is in real need of a cleaning, red slime algae all over. So I start to look into the sandsifting star since my brother has one in his 6 gallon cube and says they...

Thanks, For the opinions, I called my brother Dragon and asked him while on my way to the LFS. He told me to go with the rare one, that it would look more exotic. I guess it comes down to real estate and I don't have that much to spare, so why not go the rarest. I ended up shelling...

Hey Reefers, I have a quick question. My LFS has two different types of Blastomussa corals for sale. They are priced at $90.00 bucks per colony. One has more heads than the other like 6 heads and is colored bright orange with a smudge of green in the outer lips. The other one is...

Gradual climb in temps is always the safest route for your inhabitants and that means cutting down photoperiod until proper acclimation has been reached. MIKE

Dragon, I love your fish, they have so much personality. And as long as you keep on your water changes your fish will do great, not to mention you have added security with your back filtration being live rubble. It adds so many more nitrifying bacteria... Mike
