sweeper tentacles

hi guys, i have a neon green facia, war coral and a candy coral. an hour after i turn off the light, their sweeper tentacles come out. i spot feed them in the dark, but my war corals sweeper tentacles never come out, i even video taped it throughout the night and no tentacles

Boy did I screw up, got a new SPS about 3 weeks ago. (pictured below) I placed it without regard to my Blue Pectina's Sweeper Tentacles. With what should be no surprise I woke up this morning to notice it had (I think) tried to eat some of my sps. The upper right of the sps pictured there a 3...

I have a frogspawn that is splitting! My Question is... How long will it take for the second mouth to develop it's own sweeper tentacles? I noticed the second mouth about a week ago and it seems to still be forming itself. I'm wondering if the tentacles grow during or after the mouth is...

I tried to get a picture but my camera simply can't capture it. My finger leather just finished molting and is now full and open and bigger than I've seen it. I noticed tonight however while looking at it in the moonlight it has tentacles coming off of it in two spots just under the line where...

I just picked up a galaxia frag. I know they have sweeper tentacles but I don't know exactly how far they can extend. SOme sources say 9-10 inches. ANy thoughts on placement. I have some pretty large open spots so I think I can accomodate it. I had been thinking of it as a low in the tank...

Now that our tank has been moved and has new sand and we've rearranged the rockwork, they're finally lots of room on the sand in the front of the tank for something pretty. I've wanted a brain coral for a long time. Can someone tell me about their general care? Also, which is harder to keep...

Not sure I am in the right forum, but I have a question. Can anyone tell me what this is? And is it bad to have in our tank? Thanks ;)

For as long as i've had my frogspawn i've never seen any sweeper tentacles. I've looked at it alot during the day and night. Is this good or bad.

before i get a anemone i want to know what i plan on feeding it....i was thinking fish but didn't know what kind to feed it. What kind do you feed it

I got rid of the stupid damsel :thumbup: but hekilled my clownfish lastnight:angry: one question what do i feed my candy cane coral??

I have a 12g JBJ NanoCube DX. I have had the tank for just over 2 years now. Recently I had to remove a purple tip condy anemone and clownfish which had taken over the tank. I had to re arrange the rocks in the tank and have just introduced a new jawfish and frag of xenia/zoos. Maybe it's...

Alright, so tax returns are right around the corner! This year its going to be a 120g 48x24x24 double cube lol, afterall that is why I claim Single 0 all year long lol. I love the depth of my current 24x24x24 cube, but I dislike how its not long enough. I think the 120 will solve that, while...

ok I went to the lfs the other day they don't usually keep sps..But they received this piece of Horn coral and it was bleaching when they received it...well I know that the Horn corals are pretty hardy and something was going on? what are these guys for sure? I took a pic for them!

Hi everyone. First I want to say I think this forum is great. Thanks to all who gives advice, shares pics and makes me laugh. Today I am having trouble with my pom pom xenia. He was next to my hammer and the hammer got him, so I moved him. He hasn't looked good since. Did my hammer sting...

why is it white in spots???this is the only coral doing this? I pulled the colony out and the frag grew back but its white were the stem is????whats going on???

a reef club member gave me some cheato. He told me to put it in the display since i don't have a tank and can harvest it. Not to keen on the idea, i thought it grow wild all over...going asexual or something in the dark. he said i could harvest it, now i know you guys do this in your fuges...

http://www.saltcorner.com/sections/zoo/inverts/softcorals/octocorals1/octocorals1.htm At this link is from where im getting many ideas in some SPS corals which I could possibly have in the 150 gal tank. It will again have four 175 watt MH bulbs with VHO and the tank im told is 29" in height...

My hammer coral started looking bad this week. We've had it about 9 months or so and it was doing fine. Yesterday, though, I noticed that it's sort of deflated looking and there is what looks like a big bubble in the middle of the coral. Sort of like one of the "hammers" inflated quite a bit and...

I have a small favia frag(about the size of a golf ball) that has been in my tank for about 6 weeks now. During that time it has really lightened up in color and no longer seems interested in eating. The first few days it was putting out sweeper tentacles at night, but I have not seen any...

I have talked about this before, but it is getting a little out of control! This coral is wild, and I will post pics when my battery charges. Do most people have tame? or wild bubble coral?
