    Hello,

    To update how my zooanthids are doing, I've been doing water changes about once a week to two weeks. Sadly, the salinity has been creeping up and has probably effected the growth of my frags as well as other corals in the tank. The salinity was around 1.030 before I began adding freshwater to bring it down. I had also switched filters as the impeller in my previous filter stopped working. I'm now using an aquaclear filter which is my favorite filter brand anyway. Other than that, they get about a 1/2 teaspoon of rotifeast added about 5 times a week. I've tried feeding them pellet food, but they haven't taken it yet. Lastly, the Aussie invaders have been surprisingly successful, they've actually attached to the eggcrate they're sitting in. Here's the update on the frags:

    Egg Drops-5/7
    King Midas-4/4
    Aussie Invaders-4/11
    Mean Greens-5/6
    Safecrackers-5/6
    Baboon Butts-5/7
    Almond Joys-4/7
    Dexters-5/7

    Can't wait to see how they'll go from here!
