Standard CUC. Mix of hermits and assorted snails. And an urchin

So I have no proof, but my old chromis and 3 filefish and one other azure damselfish have come up missing over the year. Think it was my damsel? They just disappear. If I add 5-6 chromis, should I ditch the exsisting damsel?

I’ve had it now 8 months. Sebae maybe, heck don’t even know anymore. Had one split. Doesn’t really get any bigger. Clowns play with it, but really, it’s small for them. I used to try to feed them, but the food just flows away. Mostly brine shrimp as too small for small fish. Thought of buying...

Curing a 30lbs of rock I bought from a guy who broke down a tank. 3/4 dry, some still moist with some live die off. Been curing for a few weeks. Had big ammonia bloom, did water changes and now for a week, tiny amount of ammonia. Trites and trates are 0. I plan to put in a 1yo 75 gallon with...

Got a 75 gal. All is good. Very little maintenance. Really, I don’t do much. Two marine land 350s on back, a fan and UV sterilizer. Was just give some great fish. A flame angel, a coral beauty angel, a Hoeven wrass and a branded coral shrimp. All small maybe. 2” at most. Now what I already...
