Absolutely correct there Mr. Cob! Grouch gave me a nice sized branch last year and it started dropping branches, they floated around, and then attached themselves to another rock. Now I have 4 pieces growing around the tank. Almost borderline invasive in my opinion.

Try to use just about any enriched brine. Those things are like potato chips (empty calories) without some sort of enrichment.

For mysis, I started using Aqua Treasures. It's about 1/2 the price of PE mysis, and from what I've heard, both brands come from the same lake. One of the PE brothers got mad at the other so he started his own company.
