I'm the boss ya bish
 
Any idea what has caused the bloom?
Most likely the fact that I’ve been using tap water for about a year now. Used distilled in my last water change, and I’ve already seen improvement. My only cleaner is an urchin on top of that. I know it’s off topic, but this urchin has recently had drooping spines and I noticed a few on the sand. Any suggestion?
 
Anybody have a cool pleco? We got a normal leopard one back when we set the tank up, Rachel thought the albino bristlenose was the ugliest fish she had ever seen :(

I call this guy Steve Irwin ;Hilarious

Im thinking of getting one for when I redo my Amazon tank... taking suggestions for a small sized pleco... bristlenose is one thought.

That’s a sign of stress. They are really sensitive to everything, notably alk and salinity swings.

Ok, I’ll have to wait until next week to test either, but I fed it a piece of nori stuff in the mean time.

This girl eats better than most French, eretrian, and Ethiopian people.
She is starving, feed her your burger.
