    Im trying to do everything to the best of my knowledge, its just that I know there are people out there with alot more experience and I like to learn from those people.

    Also, I have been feeding the RBTA plankton every now and then. Any better suggestions? They are a "newer" addition and appear to be doing good so far, i just want to do whats best for them.

    Edit: Candy cane has closer to 50 heads , not 30

    Try feeding the BTA, small pieces of raw sea food that you can get at the super market. Shrimp, clam, fish are all good. Feeding once every 2 weeks is about right. If they do not initially accept the food try again later. Make sure to remove any uneaten pieces and watch for any pieces that maybe expelled undigested. Adequate lighting and good water parameters are far more important to keeping them.

    Okay that sounds good. I will try to feed them this weekend, I don't want to rush things since they are still trying to find a spot they like in the tank.

    Very nice tank. Everything looks great.

    As mentioned, the pictures could be better.
