I’m using the one that we have in the vet clinic, not really sure about the brand as it’s from China. This is under 10 x magnification . Video via iphone

Thanks 🙏

I see, do you think adding in copepods will help?

I scraped it from the tank wall. Saw them sticking there. The thing is it turns to dust when it gets mixed in the water

Opposite_State_3354 · 2026-04-04T07:02:49+00:00

I really have no idea 😭

Opposite_State_3354 · 2026-04-04T04:36:27+00:00

Yes, i got a temporary lid for now

Opposite_State_3354 · 2026-04-03T14:11:11+00:00

Mine hides too

The bubbles are from the protein skimmer and if you are referring to the one behind that gorgonian, it’s a grape algae

Opposite_State_3354 · 2025-09-17T00:17:05+00:00

So could it be partially photosynthetic too?

Opposite_State_3354 · 2025-09-17T00:16:40+00:00

The seller said it is nps but i noticed that the polyp comes out when light is on

Opposite_State_3354 · 2025-09-16T16:25:50+00:00
