Okay, I might give the foxface to my lfs if he doesn't stop nipping at my zoanthids, I was planning on waiting to add the dragonet last once the tank has a stable population of copepods, ill probably not add a dottyback, because if I'm reading correctly what I'm planning on adding is already to...

After contemplating this list I decided to remove a few fish and had a question in regards to peoples experiences with dottybacks, whether they are reef safe, and if they have been good tank mates. I have shrunk the list to: Starcki Damsel Four Line Wrasse Kole Tang One Spot Foxface Ruby Red...

A pair of golden dwarf moray eels.

If I had to chose any coral it would be an astreopora. If I had to chose from what's in my tank it would be my meat coral.

I have the orbit fixture over my tank. All my corals do well, I have seen growth on my montipora(only spa piece in the tank) over the last month. They are not strong enough to keep anemones alive, my second BTA just bleached and I won't being buying anymore of them. They move away from the light...

Well so far he has been in qt for 9 days, and is eating nori daily and brine shrimp I'll try feeding him misis today. How long would you recommend leaving him in qt. He is showing no signs of disease or stress at the moment.

My foxface will nip at corals and eat zoanthids, occationally. It also picked at my feather dusters tube. After while it stops and lost interest. Each specimine is different. I have never heard if tangs picking at corals or clam mantles. I'm interested in adding a clam to my tank, I hope my...

Im sure you have been asked this a millions times, what are some moderately priced test kits, and if i am going to buy them individually instead of a saltwater master test kit what do you recommend testing?

Yes it is, i know they arent the best kits out there.

I just purchased a dwarf feather duster. While the man at the LFS was bagging him he expelled from his tube, I acclimated him and put him in the tank. He won't stop moving around unless he is on the sandbed. Is there a way to make him stay on the rocks?

The fx5 would be way to much for that tank. I use a 406 on my 60 gallon reef. So i think that the fx5 would work on like a 75 and still be for lack of a better term, over filtering.

Found one today, now in qt. He is about 2.5-3 inches. Will upload pics if he comes out tomorrow, i know most tangs are shy at first.

Look in beths thread on diseases.

Id try something other then clownfish, I got two as my first two fish, they both passed. Dont seem to be the best, "first fish" in the system.

Any specific kind? Maybe one thats tang resistant since I may get a tomini tang tomorrow.

Yeah i try to feed a variety, i have 3 kinds of pellets and frozen, misis, brine, daphnia, krill, tubflex worms, and blood worms.

Thanks, I just realized I missed a few days of feeding the peletes so I'll feed more and hope that all goes well.

Other tank inhabitants are: 2 Clowns, royal gramma, kole tang, starcki damsel, four line wrasse. I feed algae sheets almost every day, and pellet food around 4 times a week, and frozen once a week.

I currently have a one spot Foxface in my 60 gallon 4 ft reef tank. In the past he picked on a finger leather, but stopped. Now i keep seeing bite marks and chunks missing from my zoanthids and i believe he is the culprate. Any way to prevent him from nipping at them? Or would i be best off...
