2 clowns (think both ocillaris), lawnmower blenny, peppermint shrimp, pencil urchin, 4+ hermits (one scarlet the rest are blue leg), 3+ astrea snails, and one tubo snail.
Are the clowns mates by chance?
As of right now no, I believe the male is too young at this point, though that is the eventual goal.
Have you tried feeding with garlic additive?
To get them to spawn? If that is the case, no, I am in no rush to get them going. I am already trying to breed my yellow tail damsels and still haven't successfully reared them (Another clutch of eggs to hatch any day now)
Maybe I will get all my turbo snails and move them to this tank and see if that speeds things up.
Just to entice the blenny to begin eating
It should
Oh hes eating, just not the algae I want him to eat or where I want him to eat it. . .
I have scrubbed the rocks but only had a "medium" tooth brush. . . I will try to find something tougher like a denture brush
If you are doing the scrubbing in-tank, brush is probably best bet. I ended up draining the water in the tank almost down to the sand and taking paper towels to the rocks, grabbing chunks of GHA and just pulling and tossing in the trash until I couldn't see any more patches of GHA. Primary benefit: no strands of GHA flying around in the tank and got it all down to the base. Corals did fine. I sprinkled some tank water on them intermittently. Then tank water back into the tank.
