WHAT'S NEW

 

A large batch of new captive bred fish arrived on Wednesday.  Amongst

the new comers are; Sunrise dottybacks, Neon Arabian dottybacks, Orchid

dottybacks and Springer's dottybacks (who are great at eating Bristle

worms!).  We also have captive bred clowns including the new Red Saddle

Back clowns.  Black Lined Fang Blennies and Mozambique Fang Blennies are

back in stock.  Our coral tanks are full of corals with a fresh shipment

of 50 new corals.  We have some nice Montipora, Galaxy and Torch corals

to choose from and many, many more.  If you have been looking for

Cowries now is the time to come in, we have an Eggshell Cowry, Tiger

Cowries and Chestnut Cowries in stock.

DID YOU KNOW?

 

Did you know that many corals can and will eat food?  Most corals get

their energy from the photosynthetic algae living inside of them;

however, many of them do much better when supplemented with food.  There

are two different types of food that are available for corals;

phytoplankton and zooplankton. DT's phytoplankton is the only live food

that is available for corals, although it does have a shelf-life.  Kent

and Nutra Sea make a wide variety of phytoplankton and zooplankton

mixtures that work great to enhance the health, color, and size of your

corals, and they do not have to be refrigerated like DT's.  While most

corals will survive in captivity without feeding, the whole reef tank

seems to completely come to life with it. Are your corals just

surviving, or are they thriving?  Don't forget, Sweetwater Zooplankton

is on sale this weekend.

 

 

 

Thanks for your time and have a great weekend!
