After speaking to Minh (Orion) and seeing his Nano at GCReef as well as speaking to Jeremy at Reefs2U, I decided to kick up the flow a notch and added a Koralia 2 to break the water surface, and a Koralia 1 to shoot straight across the front of the tank, along with the two previous Koralia nanos that I had, and I have seen alot of success and happiness since the change.
Mr. Cob, I got my orange Linkia from Aquarium Masters in August, and I remember talking to Sherri and she said to stick with the orange ones as they are the hardiest and the other colors dont do as well. Also, through my research, I saw that they do not have lots of success in aquariums, many people told me not to get one, but I just loved it and I had to have it. He is probabgly about 3-4" in diameter and does well considering I have a very young tank only setup August 1st this year.
But, I do overfeed in the morning, light feed in evening, and I have a skimmer rated for much bigger than my tank, so it skims like crazy and really gets some stinky crap out of the water.
I also dose Purple Up every other day which has contributed to some great coraline algae growth, and I feed oyster eggs, arctipods and phytoplankton about every 3 days which is aimed at helping the clam, corals and such, but I am sure the sea star gulps the leftovers as well.
Hope this helps!
Michael
