Pics of my Alpha Opae Ula tank. I do run a sponge filter since I feed about every other Day. Not the easiest to get pics since they are constantly moving around. They do stay hidden in the rocks and do come out when fed.

10 Gallon
AquaTop 40 Sponge Filter
Diet: Frozen blood worms, frozen brine shrimp, live brine shrimp, flake food.
Bare bootom with lava rock

Ok the next time & get live brine shrimp I'll video it. I've seen mine jump off the sponge to grab a bloodworm. When I put the cube of frozen worms in I swish it around in the water I guess the smell of it causes all the ML to come out. I know for sure I cannot keep the ML & Opae Ula together if I expect the Opae Ula to breed successfully.

Tanks starting to get more algae so I decided to add 5 nerite's. I stuck the other 5 in one of my opae ula tanks. Still need more.
