What are the general water/lighting requirement for these guys? They kinda like "dirty water" no? I have also seen them in tanks with huge skimmers and super well maintained "clean" tanks. | |

They are pretty hardy as far as conditions go, I have them under normal fluorescents one T8 daylight and one T10 actinic and they are open and happy, they are in the top 1/3rd of the tank at the moment. I have my Mh and T5 setup on order right now but when I get that setup I'll move them down to the bottom and see where they go on their own.
Right now I don't have a huge load in the tank so I only run my skimmer about every other day, not a whole lot of skimmate after the first couple of hours, but I do feed phyto once a week. | |
