    Thought this was a cool pic so I thought I'd share. My blue linkia star literally ate an asterina. I'm not sure if it intended too but it did. 20150920_133033.jpg

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Very cool, yup there are documented cases of Linckia eaingt Asterina, it was intentional and premeditated starcide.

    The move is finally complete! It was extremely stressful being we only had 2 days to move but everything survived. I thought I was going to loose my purple tang for a while but he pulled through. Tank has been running for a few days and besides some minor color loss, all is well. Also started dosing a new 2-part to keep alk and other params stable. It's called ESV-B ionic. So far I really like it and is very simple to use. I'll post pics later today

    Thanks OFK, it was stressful for sure but it worked out. My purple tang had me worried for a day but he's bright purple and happy now.
