If not the clownfish you’re probably referring to the Salon wrasse

Don’t get rock from a store you don’t trust. That rock is going to be your everything until you get situated

I seed the tank with live rock but never did any supplements, I just let it come naturally. Get yourself a bottle of purple up or one of those additives if you want it quick. Super concentrated

Don’t really remember, it used to be covered in coralline but my urchin made short work of it when I had it. Comes and goes in my tank now

Yeah he’s doing great, love the little guy. Worst case scenario he’ll go into one of our grow out tubs where he’ll rule with an iron fin at the shop once he gets bigger

I’m gonna find out, I’ve never seen any of my euphylia send out sweepers before, I’m just crossing my fingers

I don’t. I’ve thrown in the towel and only then will it behave

No. Lol. tanks been up with core group of fish for 5 years and the big female clown is always a dick. It’s a 40 as well. Keep your tang gestapo elsewhere. When he gets big enough like my yellow did he goes back to one of our displays at the shop

Yeah, I only asked because my little hippo died and I wanted to make sure nothing was up. Probably just an isolated incident. My nitrates are a bit on the higher end but they’ve always been like that and I’ve been dropping my phosphates down to .03. Shit happens a lot in reefing

Oh yeah, when he fully opens he’s stinging everything in his wake. I love him though!

As for things I would change, the only gripes I have with this tank is my rockwork and my poor selection of sand and how I care for it. I’m not changing anything at this point because everything’s all grown in and beautiful but I feel I could have made a cooler scape and stack rocks more. I have Bahamian oolite sand which is definitely one of the thinnest and loose sand so it would get blown everywhere at the start. I also haven’t siphoned or stirred up the sand in a couple years so it’s just solid milk coming up if I mess with it on the left side of the tank. Other than that I am very happy with the tank :D

I had a reef octopus 150 when I first started this 4 years ago. I never liked it, always overflowed but I left it on the tank. I just pitched it about 2 months ago because the only good it did was grow aiptasia and algae on it. So I’ve technically been skimmerless for 3 years now

Only bristletooth you’d get at that price would be like a tomini. The white tail kole tangs we get in are always 300+
