    Thanks, Mattias!
    Thanks, Lucas! The thing is they seem to have more PE ever since I started to target feed them. Is it likely?

    I believe so, especially if you are consistant.

    The cyano.. I freaking hate it. It's on the sandbed, I siphon it out during the waterchange, which Im doing every 5 days instead of 7 days, and Ive upped the MB7 dose (from 7ish to 10ml). See what happens.

    (Thanks for bringing them over to this page. I can always count on you. )

    Who doesnt hate cyano? It was a frequent event when I was carbon dosing as well. Incidently, I noticed that it was less of a problem when I stopped running GFO, and when I started up a GFO reactor again after some time, got it bad again.

    Seems counter-intuitive... but what do I know in this hobby? ::)

    I actually look at your thread a lot.

    For feedings

    I use Rod's Foods or similar blend frozen.
    Feed the fish, which starts the presentation of the mestenterial filaments.
    About 20 mins later after I see them I add just the slurry of the Rods.
    Twenty min later I add more.

    Usually during the first hour you see the filaments get really long regardless of whether power heads are on or not. Eventually with repetition, training, the coral show the feeding response quicker.

    If all your corals are doing or looking as well as they appear in the images, I would be pleased.
