Now everything I feed Sunny and the pink Suns, it becomes a feeding frenzy for Felicia the elusive Fire Shrimp, Chris the Skunk Cleaner Shrimp, the Sexy Shrimps, Penny the Pom Pom crab and even the Nassarius snails. All the shrimps learnt to station themselves next to the Sun Corals and snatch whatever mysis shrimps that they can land their hands, oops I mean, claws on immediately after I feed them. Next to the pink sun are some unknown purple sponges? Only time will tell what they are. Today I even spotted a small crab, which probably hitch-a-hike from the other corals that I am temporarily holding here before introducing them to my office tank.
Yes, my colleague bugged me to start a new pico reef in the office and that was what I did. We started one just a couple of days ago and there is now Franco the Clown Fish with two feather duster fan worms. I will be bringing the Jasmine Polyp that I kept in the breeding container shown here soon.
By the way, the 16th photo onwards were taken using my iphone 5. From one of the photos, Coco can be seen growing out 2 new crowns. Thanks goodness!
It was after many days of target feed that I managed to get Sunny to be more opened and receptive to the Mysis Shrimps I fed it. I wonder how long more would it take to get it to open up fully?
Everything remained pretty much the same and the snails were busy grazing.
Claudia was swimming all around the tank and sometimes diving straight at the GSP as if it was a bed of anemones. It must be under stress because it was either refusing to eat or has bad smell or eyesight because she never feed on the fish food or Mysis shrimps which I added to the tank. The Xenia still looked terrible and a few of the orange Rhodactis were detached from the skeleton and settled on the sand and amongst the mini Zoas.
It took me about 4 hours to feed Sunny but it didn't quite seem to eat much. I literally had to take a tweezer and pushed the Mysis shrimps into its mouth but it took forever to swallow even one shrimp. I would have to try tonight again to ensure it is eating.
