I'm interested in the polyp behaviour of the candy cane as well... mine does the exact same thing... extends it's polyps at night... I notice that...
Nice looking fixture! If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the fixture, and how much was it?
Yeah, before I had a fish that would eat gracilaria, I tried growing it in the sump right next to the cheato. It shrank in size while the cheato...
Yes, there are preservatives in the membrane that need to be flushed. maybe your TDS meter was measuring those.
I'd say that it was due to stress or maybe the tank went through a small cycle after adding the fish... had an ammonia/nitrite spike that went away...

I voted "normal mandarin eating live or prepared food yes" BTW, the two main different ones are more commonly called 'psychedelic' or 'target'...

haha, sounds like it! 8)
nice one! If you haven't shed sweat, tears and blood for your tank, then you aren't reefing!
Also, you brought up another interesting point about sponges not using silica directly... Are you suggesting that their ingestion of diatoms is...
I see your point.... I don't think that the small amounts of decorative sponge that we keep in our tanks could filter enough diatoms to put a dent...
