si_sphinx Posted July 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 They are KEY led light units K4 series. There is a local NZer that sells them or you can search online for them. the size I have were around $700NZD each. Just feeding the Bangaiis frozen foods as they won't except flakes or pellets just yet. But getting there slowly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

si_sphinx Posted July 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 mine also like white worms. I have gotten them to eat flake a few times but usually they will eat it and spit it out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insectile Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Don't Cowries have a poisonous dart or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
si_sphinx Posted August 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Don't Cowries have a poisonous dart or something? Tiger cowries are non venomous. Generally reef safe until they get bigger like this one and can knock corals off occasionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

si_sphinx Posted August 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Hard to get the tang sitting still. But heaps photos below. Colours mimic exactly the lemon peel angel. Replaced my weipro heater and controller with two new 300w aqua one heaters. This is my 2nd weipro heater that has crapped itself. Both not lasting more than a year. I have ordered a bubble magus doser and mixed up alkalinity and calcium solutions ready for when it arrives. Just need Epsom salts to mix with my mag chloride hexahydrate. Done a full test on my water to make sure everything is on check before I start dosing. Ammonia,nitrite,nitrate all zero. Phosphates 0.03 Magnesium 1230 (added 430g to bring it up to 1300) Alkalinity 7dkh Calcium 440 Hopefully I can start to get better growth and colours from my corals with my dosing. I might look into some of the zeo coral supplements as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
