Anyone else have curly q green star polyps? Mine curl up something fierce after the lights come on for a bit.

Awesome looking. What lighting is it? Do they do that on blue/actinic or after that when the rest of the lights come on? Aloha  ------------- Reefkeeping Tips, & quick, easy setup tricks: www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9244 Pay it forward - become a paid WMAS member

Mark, all lights kick on together. 24 cree led-12 ea rb and cw, 4 t5 ho, 2 actinic and two 10k. Always have some curl, but within an hour or so of lights on they are 'permed' ------------- Was that in there yesterday? Casper--WY windier than ? Down to a 20, soon to double or nothing |

I don't specifically feed the green stars. I put in cyclopeze about once a week, and a mix of mysis and other food about 3 times per week for the fish. I will spot feed the lps in the tank about 2/month. But they look like this all the time, whether or not I've fed the tank. ------------- Was that in there yesterday? Casper--WY windier than ?
