Just got a new fishy this afternoon! Melanurus wrasse

Just a in-bag pic for now it’s in the sand atm

Nice pal, cant go wrong with them i dont think . I lost my cleaner wrasse Thursday after 3.5 years. I will need to get another at some point

These guys can get bully like so I do need to watch when I add all the other wrasse, but that’s about it. Nice size too.

Just a tip, the Labroides dimidiatus you’re looking for may bug your smaller fish

I use a two part that boost ph, but I also dose 2 litres of Kalk too. I was worrie initially hitting 8.7 but after a year its only been good

What two part do you use to boost pH? I am looking for a new two part that boost pH.

I use a British brand call Reef Zlements, not sure if its available to you sorry. They are fairly responsive on their facebook group though if you message them

This is awesome! Seeing this graph makes me want to dump the CaRx and go back to 2-part again! lol

That said, I'm on auto-pilot with the CaRx though -- don't touch anything for at least a year! I hate mixing jugs and deal with dosers but that's just me.

Thaank you, they are doing alright. Just wish I could get rid of those brown polyp :/

I have been using this particular 2 part for well over a year, im at nearly 100ml of each a day which makes is quite expensive considering its about 4.5x concentrated to standard 2 part and I am putting in 2000ml of kalkwasser :/ I really should get a cal reactor but I know it will kill the ph :/

Yes, you’ll likely drop to 8.1 peak (where I’m at). Below is a live shot — need to swap out the CO2 scrubber media this weekend to bring pH back to 8.3…

Wow - very impressive! I think you need more Apex gear?

I like all of it to be fair. However I wish I has bought the ati stratton lights and Im a bit annoyed neptune have stopped production of the wavs, will make it a nightmare for parts which undoubtedly I will need at some point
