Fast growing corals can save your tank....when I started reefing I read a lot of blog posts...and many warned of the dangers of green star polyps and pulsing xinia and the sort taking over your tank. I think this does a disservice to new reefers....here is why. Fast growing and easy to care for...
I just got a toadstool leather the other day and attached it to the rocks within a reasonable distance from my GSP. In the first few days the toadstool was nice and open but it's a lot more flexible than I realized and noticed at night it would bend in different directions. On the third day of...
I have some GSP discs that recently have been hit with different types of algae. While I battle the underlying problem, I'd like to try to clean these discs so the GSP has some room to grow.
First I will take a toothbrush to them. Then I was thinking about trying a dip.
Hydrogen Peroxide seems...
My GSP got covered in hair algae but was still opening just fine. One day i decided to brush it off and ended up hurting it a bit. It began to open less until this point where i believe it’s dead. Is there a way to revive it or is it long gone?
I've been fighting bubble algae on and off for about a year now and I'm getting tired of it. I physically remove them with a hose and screw driver and they come back within a week. They detach from rock and end up in my powerheads, causing cascading issues. I'd rather grow GSP because at least...
I have 3 extra colonies of Green Star Polyps that have branched or been fragged from my huge mother colony, and they deserve new homes. Please forgive the pics, I only have my iPhone to work with!
Located in Chattanooga, TN. Willing to meet locally, and also willing to ship via FedEx. Should...
Hey reefers. I had some GSP shading Zoa I really like so I tore off some of their polyps/arms so that the mat was no longer inside the Zoa colony. They haven’t opened since then. Obviously I had to move them to a frag bucket to do this they’ve been closed since. Are they ok or did I kill them...
I added a small frag of encrusting Green Star Polyps and gave it its own rock island. Fast forward a year, and it's grown so much that it stretched over the sand and finally found my main rock work. I was too slow in stopping it, and it's now growing up towards my other corals.
Last night I...
I have a rock of gsp that curls outward when my light comes on. it is in medium flow area and bottom of my Nuvo 10. You think it's getting too much light?
