i bought some LR a while back and it had a group of nice orange polyps on it. i was hoping they would multiply, but sadly after 9 months or so i have just as many as i started with. any ideas on what makes these things breed??
Could be one of several things. What kind of lighting do you have? As axnixon said, there may not be enough light. There also could be a lack of the right water params its would need, or maybe it just isn't a kind that propogates.
im only using a couple of flos right now(80w). so its probably the lights. my my water is good as far as ph, ammonia, nitrates and nitrites. dont test for anything else. although im still using tap to fill up. until i get RO/DI. i havent got the new HO lights yet. but they are a couple weeks away.
its just fowlr now. do you think i should be testing for more?? dont have mouch of a fish load for a 75g, just a couple of small damsels and 5 turbos.
