Thanks. The tank is a couple of weeks old and still cycling with the live rock. Plus this picture is shortly after getting back from the store. They just happened to be on the rocks I purchased, as well as all the aiptasia, stars, termite looking shrimp, bristleworms, sandworm things, snails, and if I noticed correctly yesterday a couple tiny feathersdusters. Have to wait and see if they really are after they grow a bit. Because of the ammonia levels, just over .25 .025 or whatever the normal API measuring card level is at the second level, my LFS, said I need to let it cycle a couple more weeks and let if level off. He said to reduce lighting to help the bacteria build up then once levels ok, turn the lights back on. I have a standard flo and a T5 (10,/15Kact) that I just bought. He said just a couple hours of lighting a day and the Xenia will be ok for a couple of weeks. Eager to get the lights back on and get some new additions. Hey, will the xenia feed off of nutrients from aiptasia if I Joe's Juice one a day for them?
