Hey, nice sponge! I know when I had my ornamental sponges, they thrived in a high nutrient (dirty) tank. Now that I have a "clean" tank, they don't do so well... Maybe trying supplemental feedings is a good idea.

Hey Ben,
What do you call the zoas that are in the right lower corner of the picture with your mystery monti? (the brown/tan one with green polyps)? Just curious...

You know.. I don't have a name, but If someone does, feel free to chime in here.

Hey Dang,
Well I've noticed some pretty decent growth on a blue stag I got from you a ways back and also with the slimer and some green cap. However, I don't know if I'd recomend it yet, it's only been 2 times that I've feed the mysterious frozen green goo cubes and still too early to tell.
Reeferpatt & SueT have had some great results with it so far.
I have noticed a bit of a hair algae bloom - but I don't know if this would be related to the feeding. Sue has had the totally opposite effect - she now has no algae at all & doens't clean the tank b/c the water is so clean.
I think I'm reaching that "dirty water" syndrome that aquarookie mentioned above which is good for sponges, but bad on the eyes.
And yes Janarowe, I totally agree.. dirty water = aptasia heaven.
I'm thinking of investing in an ozonizer machine, or possibly a UV to help control the algae and give me clearer water. I've done the phosban and it doens't seem to make much of a difference. I don't know, we'll see, it'll certainly be interesting to see how this turns out.

Yeah.. Jason D turned me onto this site which helps with Zoo Id's (www.zoaid.com). These to me, look like they could be related to the joker Palys, but honestly, the skirt is more yellow like.
Here's what they say the jokers are supposed to look like:
and here's something called a bumble bee:
could be either. They have small slits for mouths which it doesn't really look like the bumble bees have, but the skirts are yellow like the bumble bees.

very nice comment. Thank you. I appreciate it. As you know, this hobby takes a lot of time, a lot of patience, a lot of lessons learned and a lot of money (if you let it) but it feels good to be where I'm at right now ;-)

Thank you. I'll look forward to meeting you in the future. I saw in your signature it says you were doing an in wall. You should start a seperate thread on that to show progress & all of the considerations you have to go through. I am also considering an in wall for my next tank and woudl be very curious to see what it really entails.

Yes I'm going to try and make it next month for the psas meeting and get involved with you guys! Yes I can't wait to do my in wall. However we are selling our condo right now and I'm going to start my project with a new house hopefully soon! The tank is over at IAP right now getting finished. I hope to create a tank very similar to yours and a few others nice job once again!

I have to say that after seeing this tank in person, the pictures give it no justice. Very clean and nice looking. I can't wait to see your next project when it is completed.
