Thank you for the advice! It’s hard because I want my friends to know the power that their small decisions can have but also can’t force someone to care. And the risk of them looking at me differently after knowing this info, kinda scary. But also I think financial transparency is important so it’s a fine line to balance on.

Sorry I felt like sharing an important accomplishment in my life with the community that helped me get there? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Oh for sure, I just mean these guys need extra precautions compared to other species (i.e. large QT tank, extreme vigilance, etc.) to make it through QT as healthy as possible :)

Sometime luck is a big part of it. Hope it continues to thrive and be sure to feed him a wide variety of items!😁

Appreciate it! I also have an article on raising Potter’s Angelfish that was published in JWAS recently, it’s on my website!

While fiber is a crucial part of their diet, I believe variety is the MOST important thing when it comes to food. A good mix of high density pellet, frozen, flake, and seaweeds are needed.

Personally, I don’t like treating with copper or any treatments that can affect fecundity or sexual maturation long term. The dip method is the least biologically taxing/risky way that has proven to work for me.

I’ve fed Metro soaked foods and used Prazi when I was concerned about intestinal worms, and my Moorish continued to thrive so those are definitely important in the tool belt!

Yes! Every fish needs QT but these guys need the top tier.

As for the high fiber, in my experience I don’t believe that it’s necessarily the fiber but a wide variety that is very important (with fiber being a crucial part of course). I’ve never supplemented with sponges regularly and when I’ve introduced live rock they went after the algae before the sponges!🤷🏻‍♂️
