thanks guys...

any tips on the gorgs? when i first got them (back when pon did his eTropicals group order), the polyps extended almost every day, but recently, the red one hasn't been showing polyps, and the yellow only has 25% of polyps extended as it used to...

they're getting decent amount of flow, but from what i can tell they still develop that waxy coat, and sometimes a thin layer of algae. any help would be appreciated.

I just feed alot to keep mine happy. I shoot it with the turkey baster 3 times over an hour every other day and mine have been doing well. How much have you been feeding?

[Daniel]

i feed them every night... cyclopeeze and i give em about 3 - 5 squirts over a period of 30 mins.

i can only feed what's open :( good news though, today more polyps seem to be out, dunno why... but that's a good sign :)

[SDRotary]

I use dt's, I would think Cyclopeeze would be too large for them to use but I might be wrong. I would try dt's imo.

[Dannyboy]

I agree with SDrotary. The cyclopeeze would be too big of pieces for them to actually take in. DT's or even Liquid Life phyto would be better.

gorgs can eat cylopse, there polyps extand out rather large.
