They are eating a little bit but not as much as i would like. They ate a few mysis shrimp last night and i bought some flake for them since they didnt like the pellets. What brand of flake do you feed them because they dont seem to like the brand i picked up. I think part of the problem is they are still a little shy, they are coming to the front a lot more now but if i move too fast they get scared again lol.

Yep I got mine about 2 months ago and when I bought it it only had 2 heads. Now it has 4 for sure and another poking up.

Thanks :D i have a zoa frag in the pico i started thats not too happy but other than that everyone seems happy and the duncan is showing some good growth. The zoa has been just melting away. I have looked it over and havent seen anything on it but its down to 2 polyps from 4 when i picked it up about a week ago.

one is most of the time and its still big and fat when its not. The other one isnt and its not as fat so im thinking i might lose that one too. They are on opposite ends of the rock they are on so i am hoping it wont spread to the other one.
