The tank looks great. You have done a great job keeping the corals, they all look colorful and healthy. Have you ever tried a Blue Velvet Nudibranch for your flatworms?
Check this out
Thanks!
I considered one and after watching it suck up flatworms in those videos i would get one just for that. I wouldn't even need to watch tv it'd be so entertaining.
I do however have a plan of action. When i move to the new tank i'm starting from scratch, new sand, new rocks. I plan to chip the corals i have off the rock and in the case of the monti cap i'll break it off in pieces and keep a few pieces and sell the rest. When i move the corals i will dip then and blast with a baster. I figure if any of the sneaky buggers get by the dip and the blasting it will be minimal and i can dose the tank with flatworm exit to take care of any stragglers. This will also hopefully solve the majano problem the tank has too. I will treat and kill any that are near corals and burn the rest with fire. Once the corals and fish and as many inverts (including starfish) as i can save are moved i plan to dose the 20g and all remaining rocks with flatworm exit. There will be zoas and mushrooms left on the rocks, i will remove some and move them to the new tank and leave the rest. If i can unflatworm the rocks they will go into the new sump with the zoas and mushrooms, if not i will attempt to remove as many of the polyps as i can and ditch the rock.
This is going to be a slow process, i will have both tanks running side by side and move everything over a few days, buckets of water to dip corals in and acclimate fish will no doubt take over my living room. I imagine water will be everywhere. But at least this time i can plan it, deal with issues and not go from a tub on the floor into a quickly prepped tank.
From now on i will dip and qt everything, i learned my lesson!
Tonight i cleaned the return pump and fragged some corals
First time i've really fragged anything intentionally so i'm pretty pleased with myself. Ive' got 3 frags of pink birdsnest, 1 green stylopora, 1 green tipped staghorn and 1 and a baby heads of hybrid hammer. (tank lights are off)
