I don't think so at all. The logic is not that sponges are eating up diatoms. It is that they are using silica. So do diatoms. Skimmers remove...
I have seen both true and false percs host just about anything, including feather duster worms... not sure what drives them to do it, as my clown...
yeah, I'd say it's probably eating algae off of it... my emerald crabs pick at my red sponge occasionally and my sea hare will graze across it every...
Thanks everybody so far... I'm anxious to get home and check on the tang... I'm going to pick up some gracilaria on the way home to see if it will...
I have had a similar problem growing gracilaria... I think pods love it... but I can grow cheato no problem... could it be that there are different...

I recently added a powder blue tang and that's all he will eat so far- GHA.

It's been picking algae off of the powerheads... I was thinking of rubberbanding it to there... but I rubber-banded some onto my mag float for that...
I do have a sump, but I don't see any way to catch the angel... at least not without a big overhaul of the tank... I hate moving rocks... once I...
I'll try moving a few rocks...
I guess I could move the rocks as a last resort, but I have corals attached to most of them so I'd rather not do that... Never heard that about...
I posted a thread on here about the rocks I got from Reefcleaners:...
