I only participated in zoa category. Picked up my frag at the meeting. 3 polyps. Everything opened up nicely. Picture taken today.

New baby polyp! Circled in the pic. You can barely see it. So far this frag has been doing great.

Looks like my zoas are really taking off. I can see signs of a few new babies. Here are some pics from tonight after the lights went out.

Zoas doing good. One of the polyps had been closed up for a week but they are all opened up again. I can count 8 heads in total now.

Super healthy man. Great work!

[furam28]

Yeah its a really unique morph. I have a different AoG but this one is brighter and nicer looking. Thanks Mr cob.

I was spot feeding yesterday and one of my emeralds started plucking off mysis from the polyps. I tried to push it off with tongs and it just went violent and started pulling on the polyps. Surveyed the damage today. One large polyp is torn off but the rest are doing fine. Can see 10 polyps now. Bummer!

[Dean]

Are you feeding your tank other than fish food?

[furam28]

I don't have any fish in my tank. So every other day I either spot feed frozen food - mysis or amuzed marine or if I'm feeling lazy I just turn off the return pump and broadcast feed reef chilli. I let the reef chilli blow around for an hour and then turn return pump back on.

Zoa doing good. Can see 14 polyps now. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15/02/10/3974af6714ebe9cce2abcb0157aee80a.jpg

Took a close count of the zoas today. Until now I have tried to leave it mostly untouched so as not to hinder growth. Amazing growth! 25 polyps plus signs of few tiny babies.

Holy smokes! Nice growth man. I'm stuck at 6 :/

[JimH]

Apparently you have an all-out zoa factory going in your tank... Nice work!

I saw you are using the amuzed food. Do you think it is only good for the LPS or do you think your SPS enjoy it too?

[furam28]

Thanks zack! Thanks Jim! I Know my softies and lps love the amuzed food. They take it in and swell up. Not sure about the sps. I blow some on them but don't see any reaction. But then again I am struggling with acros and getting them to color up and grow.

[furam28]

My AOG is at 31 fully formed heads. Amazing growth! I have marked the heads in the 2 pictures. The 2nd picture is the 1st pictured with the frag turned around. The circled polyps are the same polyps in the 2 pictures.
