Thanks Levi, I suspected you were likely feeding or dosing the tank with something to get such good growth out of your zoas and palys. I'll have to start feeding my zoas to see if I can duplicate your results or at the very least, keep my zoa frags from slowly withering away.

Your very welcome, please keep me updated with the results and what you decide to feed them. Always nice to compare and contrast what works well for others.

I had never had success with any until recently, I am now keeping around 32 different varieties in my frags tank of my zeo vit tank so have extremly clean water. I have them about 3 inches from the top of the tank running a vertex illumina 200 light and feeding heavy with acan plus, ora frozen food and dried and frozen cyclopes and they have exploded.

Good to hear your laving good long term results with LED's so far Wes, where are you picking up the ORA frozen food if you don't mind me asking?

My bad its it ova nutramar I have been buying it at marina aquaria. It has quality marine all over the package so I assume any Lfs that gets quality livestock would have access to it. http://www.nutramar.com/ova.html

You found Nutramar? Lucky! I haven't seen it in ages.

Jeez Levi, now I'm all excited to get my sump hooked up to my nano for I can get that over-sized skimmer hooked up and I can feed my Zoas. :D

Thanks Wes! Have yet to see it in Calgary, anyone out there know of a location? Don't think it would be very cost effective to ship in down here unfortunately.

Smaller tanks perform better when it comes to target feeding, much easier to saturate the water with proteins & AA and in turn create a wicked feeding response. Your over due for a nano update Mindy!

How high up is your sunset?

I have mine on the sandbed currently. It's encrusted it's plug really quickly but the orange has faded a bit and the green in the polyps is pretty muted too.

I need to mount this and a rainbow monti so any advice is appreciated =)
