    Ive got little frags all over my 120. I started to get the bigger pieces but I am to cheap to buy the big pieces so I decided to buy little ones and watch them grow.

    lol i figure i dont have time to watch my corals grow because i dont know how much longer i will be living at home, maybe on more year. When i move i plan to sell the livestock and keep the tank and the equipment.

    So i just got home from work, i was only gone for two hurs, and my bubble coral is just getting bigger and bigger, i dont get how it could do this in such a short a mount of time, im not sure if its just stretching itself out more because i now have more bubbles that are resting against the sand *still attached and normal looking* but i dont get it

    Bubble corals are indeed strange. Make sure you feed it. I feed it raw table shrimp once a week. It will be all fluffed out and beautiful, then the next day it looks limp and completely dead. Then poofs back out again after a couple hours of looking like hell. Very nice new corals you have there.

    if i feed im afraid it will grow even more this thing is already a monster 6 in lenght by 4 wide, and in my tank, that's huge it doubled its size within 24hrs. It will be cool to watch it eat though, i tried my brain last night, didnt go to well

    thanks, ive just realized that for some reason my zoas never show up in FTS so it looks like i only have three corals :p i'll be going to my lfs this week to get more water, maybe look at some more coral or to see what fish they have in stock, this is a different lfs from the one where i just got my corals, but i have a feeling i may end up having to order my fish online from liveaquaria
