I guess my water must be too clean..haha Everything else in my tank is mulitplying like crazy. I've had to frag and sell a bunch of my zoanthids and other corals.

ya my water conditions arent optimal for either i suppose. sacrophyton? i suppose thats tiny verisons of zooplankton or so?? I need a fuge bad but no room to put one, not even on the back of my tank..... nitrates are still hovering around 25-30 ppm, calcium is fine i think 510 or so, ph deplenishes easily though... i always have the problem of wanting to move my corals around because of optimal flow, light, the reach of my nem... and there for i never want to glue them in one place... this has resulted in me losing, literally, my star polyps....

Toadstools(sacrophyton), Xenia do better in the presence of them.

HA my water must be nasty as hell. I cant get the stuff to stop growing. I started out with two polyps about 3 months ago. Now half the damn tank is xenia.
