I am wondering where my sunny d's should be placed? When I got them they only had a bit of orange but they seem to get less and less color. Do they need higher light or lower? I have had them in the lower part of my red sea max and now in the lower part of my 75g. The only time I see any orange color is when a new polyp is coming in:( ------------- Jackie Stuver "wait these aren't the happy Hawaiians oompa doompa godly heaven on your face zoas?

My magicians are doing the same thing. Im going to try and place them in lower light and see what happens. I switched to leds so maybe they are too much for them. ------------- The time we enjoy wasting isn't wasted time!!!! |

Jackie, mine like med-low light and med flow, good luck, what i did before when my aog lost color (granted i switched from a crappy t5 fixture to a hqi light) was I shaded it underneath a frogspawn and slowly moved it out of the shadow every day I fed. Good luck! -------------

Jackie, I have found with almost all of my Zoas that they tend to like the sand. My dragon eyes lost there color and I moved them down and now all my zoas are doing much better. I would love to see a pic of your new zoas :). Pam |

I have had them on the sand and they just haven't colored up but I put them in a shaded area so we will see soon:)
I will get some pics of my zoa/paly collection tomorrow when my lights come on. ------------- Jackie Stuver "wait these aren't the happy Hawaiians oompa doompa godly heaven on your face zoas? I dont want them then. lol!" Ksmart |
