Fluval Evo 13.5g AIO. Has a honeycomb "aesthetic" print on the outside of the glass. You can scrape it off, but I never bothered.
They should do fine in that tank. As soon as some biofilm starts the sand will settle. If it were me I would observe those fish for at least 4 weeks before going to the DT. Also hit them with Prazi x 2Found the second one!
And now she's out hunting baby brine shrimp.
This water is really bothering me how it's not clearing up. Wish I had gotten everything to set up this tank earlier and managed to get it running and clear. Hopefully these guy make it into my main tank.
Any recommendations on getting them out of the "landing pad" and into the acclimation box in the main tank? I figure they'll need 2 more days in here to get to 1.026sg. They started at 1.0225sg, and goal is 0.002 per day.
Thanks!
They should have already had Prazi from Dr. Reef since they are Pre-quarantined/medicated. Hope the sand settles soon. I think it was the Caribsea "live" sand with whatever else is mixed in it.
Ah. Didn't realize these were QT fish. Then I would give them a week to settle in and then move them to DT. I would not bother with acclimation box for sand sleepers. Drop them in the DT in the evening and they will dive into the bed. Then they can self-adjust to the other fish. I don't bother with boxes for sand sleepers. I think it is extra stress they don't need.
Making a DIY water clarifier is really easy. This is my method with just some Walmart filter floss, a gravel vac, and my water change pump.
I’ve found them to be the same experience as a Melanurus personally.
I am now following this
I think so...

Lame teaser. Give us more info! What besides the fin?
Not at all. Give her a week. I found that the chrysus adjusts faster than any of my other wrasses.Water cleared up and H. chrysus are out this morning! Don't see the M. bipartitis yet. There was a lot of sand movement yesterday after it buried itself. Is it a problem if a lot of sand settles over where it was buried?
The second is a close relative to another wrasse I’ve got (and I’ve had that wrasse with a close relative before). It also has gorgeous red/pink bars down it’s body.
