My tank has been set up since July. I'm not worried. Just silly things our tanks do to keep us in our toes. I made some of my rocks, used some live rock, and some old rock. Used a couple types of bacteria and live sand and old sand. I know the phosphates are still soaking in and I wasn't worried about the alk drop. I have plenty of corals to soak it up.

Reef Tank 365 - Reef Tank 365 - New For 2023
I am happy to announce Reef Tank 365 will be resuming in this new thread for 2023! R2R will feature one of our members tanks every week & that member will get a new Reef Tank 365 Badge :) As per the original written by @Homelander this does not have to be a fancy coral tank, fowlr tanks are also...
So I found that throwing the female clownfish out of the tank when she bites you tends to curb the biting for a bit. Longer if she doesn't survive... Maybe that's not the best recommendation.Kole tang is doing kinda good. He had a rough first night as he seems to got into a fight with my pair of clown fish. The clown fish are extremely defensive over their area and bite any fish or even me, that comes close. The kole tang lost 1/4 of his tail, but the fins seems to be healing already. Luckily no signs of ick..
He seems to be a really picky eater though. He refuses the frozen brine shrimp, frozen mysis, the nori and the flake food I offer. The guy even ignores the hair algae, which is the reason I bought him in the first place…. He is scraping the algae of the rocks and the glass, and does still look really full and healthy. I guess he starts with the food he likes the most first
Haha, I’ve tried smacking her back, but that clearly didn’t do the jobSo I found that throwing the female clownfish out of the tank when she bites you tends to curb the biting for a bit. Longer if she doesn't survive... Maybe that's not the best recommendation.
It worked for mine. She's a model citizen now.
Easiest way:
I'm glad to see that your tank has turned around for the better!It has been a while since my last update. I kind of lost my spark/interest after the tank went downhill. First I lost my acropora’s, than fish started jumping out of the tank due to aggression problems.
The tank has turned arround, sps/acropora’s started growing again and my fish stock is up to par again.
These are the current fish in the tank:
Cirrhilabrus naokoae
Halichoerus Chrysus
Neocirrhites armatus
Valenciennea puellaris
Gramma loreto
Zebrasoma flavescens
Synchiropus splendidus
Amphiprion Oscellaris 2x
Chelmon Rostratus
Thank you! I’m really happy.
Still a fantastic looking monti!Thank you! I’m really happy.
Although the forest fire montipora is considered a beginning sps, I am really happy with colours right now.
will keep them at the sandbed for a while before placing them next to the other torches.
