    To all Zoa/Paly keepers

    How long have you been keeping zoas and palys? How long have you been in the hobby? Hope to see you here Tuesday the 18th at 9 PM Eastern time, pass the word. I hope we can have more members here than guest by then. Thanks, Mucho

    Why do my Zoo’s have really long tentacles/Skirts?

    I forgot to add this but some charactoristically have long stalks as is the case with many of them from Figi for example. When a reefer buys/picks up/receive their new polyps they are most always stressed, some more than others based upon transit lenght, type, duration etc. When these new...

    Maybe I gave the wrong impression, this is not about me, it's about us. Everyone here has a voice, I just hope everyone will use it to help activate this forum again. I was simply urging everyone to contribute with new ideas and to create a zoa/paly/proto related thread.

    Zoa/Paly discussion?

    Those are great points and equally great questions. May I suggest you copy your above post and formulate it into a series of concerns and questions and then create a new thread with the appropriate title for everyone to see and contribute to. How about it mate? Then invite some zoa keepers to...

    Why do my Zoo’s have really long tentacles/Skirts?

    Polyps which seem to reach vertical CAN be as a result of the need for more light, but not always. In fact, in my opinion, often it isn't the cause for polyp elongation. What we see physically in our tanks isn't always what the polyps looked like when and if they were harvested from the wild...

    Why do my Zoo’s have really long tentacles/Skirts?

    Are you referring to tentacles or the stalk? I don't know of a single person who has ever purchased a pulse xenia because they didn't want it to pulse. As long as I had a piece of xenia in my tank or my fug that was pulsing like crazy, my tank was fine. If their is an oppsing belief or opinion...

    Why do my Zoo’s have really long tentacles/Skirts?

    I thought I would bump an old thread instead of creating a new one on this topic. There is an explainable reason for a dramatic or marginal increase in skirt/tentacle lenght. Pulsating Xenia will not pulse if tank parameters are out of whack. They are like a canary in a coal mine as they are a...

    Awesome, I'm sure you have lots to share. And my sincere apologies if I came on too strong in my above post, it's nothing more than zeal. I wasn't putting anyone down regarding those 6 topics I mentioned, they are great for those who enjoy them, I just prefer something different is all. Invite...

    Zoa/Paly discussion?

    Hello Bill, when you say they didn't grow till you fragged them, how did you frag them? What was the size of the frag, how long had you owned it? When you transitioned from MH to T5s, you said your polyps seem to like it better. How so? Tell us what changes you observed and what do you...

    Hey thanks Ak-reefer, but my tank is old news. I really want to hear about what you guys are doing and your achievements in reefing. I see you're feeding Phyto and oyster feast. How did you decide on those to feed and your schedule? We were just discussing LEDs on another sight. Tell us why...

    Zoa/Paly discussion?

    Hey thanks for the welcome. So are you keeping frags, small colonies or mothers? Not concerned with names or pics. You are concerned about what to feed them, captive care ( husbandry), feeding and how to get them to proliferate in your tank right? Wow, that's 4 good threads or one great one...
