I agree that there is nothing you can do to make it go where you want. I disagree that it looks ok. IMO it looks bleached, even at its foot the color is fading. I do not have high hopes for survival, unless you address some issues. One would be getting your PH up and making sure your S.G. is...

Yes that is true no worries there. Your PH is tanked... you should be in the 8.2 range. How are you measuring your salinity/S.G.? Refractometer or Hydrometer? Yep it is back there for a reason weather its for flow/comfort/food... a mixture of all, a combination of 2 or a sacrifice for one more...

Yep thats what I have heard too. For the price I heard they work well, you need to clean them often and they dont last forever. But I too am thinking about trying one just to say I did.

BTA's often foot deep in the LR, they seem to like LR around them to retreat too should they feel threatened. Yours is not exhibiting any real odd behavior but it should pop out and inflate toward the available light. No I do not believe that the light is causing it to act this way. Actually...

Its awesome to see them spawning... Im curious... Keri, how long were your 2 fish a "pair" before they mated? I have 2 that are paired, share the same anemone, there is clearly a male and female and they have been paired for about 5 months. Just curious how long yours took from pairing to...

I use this skimmer on my BC29 and I actually like it a lot. I havent done anything to it and IMO it skims pretty well. However I am going to try those mods and see how different it is. Thanks for the tip...

If the color is good it is not disintegrating I would recommend to just leave it alone. It no doubt got a bit stressed with the tear, keep good water quality no toxic levels of anything to help reduce the risk of infection and leave it alone to heal. Observation is key here and about the only...
