I don't really test as you know, I observe my tank a lot, I stopped the CE 6 days ago, cyano bloom, I will re start at a lower addition tomorrow as I have a 3 day weekend to observe!

I do test. Not often. I watch my critters and coral to know what's going on.

Yes, but I think it flipped me off.

Hello,

@Katrina71 at least your not a serial murder of gobies like I am. The one I just put in seems nice and happy as she has covered every coral in sand. She hasn’t eating the food yet but still getting food from the sand which there is a lot of. It’s amazing how fast they clean the sand

. By the way they are jumpers, I still have to find a lid but working on it soon.

I think gobies are intentionally jerks, they die just to make us feel bad. Puppies must never learn this trick...

Right they bury everything when alive to bug you which makes you feel even guiltier when they pass.

Nothing yet...just planning an alibi

How is little Miss Goby?

NY_Caveman · Dec 7, 2018

I think Decorator Crabs jump rope. But they use four ropes, one in each pair of hands. Hypnotizing to watch.

On the mend I think. Hopefully she'll be back to her CUC eating self soon. Which brings me to a question...any meds that are display tank safe? Just for minor stuff like scrapes and nips.

Katrina71 · Dec 7, 2018

Even a food additive?

I was thinking about this. Are they scratches or are some open sores? I really know little about treatment. Some following may know better. Or maybe @HotRocks has thoughts? In tank treatment for anemone stings and possibly scratches? On a Goby. Invertebrates in the tank.
