Continuous feeding seems to be the key to preventing coflake nipping in dwarf angels. As I recall, Centropyge are naturally herbivorous, but if they develop a taste for coflakes in captivity, it's often difficult to reverse. Using a slow dripper or nori sheets to provide a constant food supply ...

"update - been keeping an eye on those little orange hammer heads and it's looking like they might not be from my wall hammers after all - turns out they're probably babies from my aussie orange/gold torch. found a bigger one the other day and the tips are white, just like my gold torch. will try to ...

I've got a 350 display tank, so I don't target feed - my tangs and foxfaces would just eat it off the coral, anyway. I do feed heavily, though, and the nutrients are pretty high in there right now. I recently bumped up the flow, and the SPS corals seem to be loving it. The babies that were up high ...

yeah, it's definitely growing another set of tentacles around the edge, can see the little nubs forming already

Here's a pic of momma

She's getting bigger, been watching her retract when I mess with the tank and the little ones are growing too. Saw my yellowstriped cardinal trying to hold onto a mouthful of eggs tonight, some spilled out and the dendro got a nice snack.

I'm pretty sure my wall hammer had a first class canoe ride. It's an ancora, and it loves the high light and flow - the babies are popping up all over near my acros. I'll try and get some better pics soon.

No way, those are definitely baby Euphyllia. Awesome, congrats on the new additions. Can't wait to see them grow, sign me up for a frag when they're a bit bigger. For now, keep feeding them.


Thanks, I'll keep feeding them and hope they thrive. The one in the pic is growing, second set of ...

Got a pic, finally. Still tiny, but you can see the individual tentacles and all. Growing pretty steadily too.

I fragged it over a month ago and I've been noticing the little heads with individual tentacles popping up, just like the babies on my other hammers. They've been showing up all over the tank for about two weeks now, so I'm pretty sure they're not dead polyps. I'll try to get some pics, but they're ...

Fragged my aussie orange wall hammer a few weeks back and I'm seeing what looks like tiny orange hammer heads in some of the liverock crevices. Same color and polyps as the parent, just smaller - about the size of a pencil eraser. Had some acros and leather spawn before, but never heard of a hammer ...
