Hi All,
I just bought a load of live rock from eBay and it came with some soft corals and tube worms on it. One of the tube worms measured about 10cm across when fanned out - it's pretty impressive. I have a common soft coral (don't know the name bu it's brown and you see it everywhere) and some green mushrooms which look neon under my blue actinic!
I hadn't planned to keep corals, but they're sooo pretty!
So, my question is,
1. Do I need to up the lighting? (I have a luminaire with T5s not currently employed, and if I get these out, how many hours a day?)
2. What do I feed the corals and tube worms?! This is perhaps the biggest worry. They look OK at the moment, but then they've only just gone in.
Thoughts, anyone?
