Ty!

Checking they dont have exactly the Yellow Coris. Trying LFS owner first if he can squeeze me in on his order. He does QT even

Otherwise Reef pro looks awesome! Yellow tail Melasmapomus is absolutely beautiful, and im a sucker for that Red and White Leopard. Gosh

You have an eye for great wrasses! So what's your long term plan for your red coris, keep or rehome?

Keep , he/she's a solo wrasse now. So far no agression or anything. 4 inches long right now still looks like a clownfish(not really)

You'd need to autopsy, but know what to look for.

Sorry this happened :*(

Right... Freaking sucks. But the orange shoulder tang is eating and a good community member already so I'm happy

Juveniles aren't aggressive, but once she turns male it'll behave differently towards its fellow wrasses. Something to keep in mind when you choose your other wrasses that they're able to handle the future aggression.

Yes. I haven't had allergies since 2018. This week, they are triggered.

Same here. I have allergy issues all year round and this week has been particularly bad.

Couple of pics tonight. Still can't capture the yellow skin of the space laser but it's looking good.

Zoas looking much better . Polyps at least are out. Less flat worms. Less stars. And the dip did wonders I think.

Going to send the kh guardian out to get repair. Something is off with it.

Keeps dkh at 8.5 ( Hannah) but tests at 13.5 , force calibrate to 11.5 (-2) and set to hold at 11.5

It's working but I wanna be more around 9-9.5 dkh.

Update on KH Guardian, A slight tweak to the probe height and its testing correct.

The explanation was simple from Alex (the creator and owner) it affects the sample size... Never thought about it that way.

Now we are testing 8.5 same as the hannah.
