Frog spwan and Duncan questions

[ronnieblaze]

I got a nice frog spawn from Tim and i have a Duncan from the frag meet... my questions are placement for both and feeding.

My tank is a 55g long with 2 150w 20k MH lights..

my frog spawn I have in med light and flow. Too much of either and its not happy. Duncan is pretty much in the same area, tho might have a lil more flow. I spot feed my duncan every 2-3 days. The frogspawn gets what ever it can when I feed the tank....sometimes I'll spray food all over it, but not sure if it gets much. You can feed the Duncan mysis, brine....well pretty much anything. The more you feed it, the faster it'll mult.

My duncan is on the bottom, 23 inches under a 20K T5. That area has some strong medium flow but it is doing great. I feed mine mysis several times a week using tweezers. I got mine in early Decemeber and since I started feeding it has grown two more heads.

I havent tried to feed mine yet, cus when i go to feed the tank something startles it and it retracts..

but i think im going to take a 20oz bottle and cut it and put over him to feed

I have heard that if you feed the duncan often it will split into more heads but the same guy said his duncan died all of the sudden after spliting into more heads . So I try to feed mine twice a week.

I doubt an LPS died from feeding.

i agree the feeding didnt kill it.

Is that a 20K MH and T5s or do you have a 20K T5 bulb? If so where did you get it I did not think they had 20K T5s yet?

Sorry to highjack

Thats where I read it at. Guy said he had insane growth rate then the skin peeled off.
