I return.

Hey! I'm back. Its been a while since I've posted a message... to make a long story short, I had to leave town for a month unexpectedly. In doing so, I forgot to secure someone to feed my fish. B/c of this... I lost several members of my livestock, as well as I had a major hair algae outbreak and I lost my filter. It's taken me a week, but I've got everything back to normal, I've even added another 3 inches of sand to the tank.
Here comes my question...
I have a 75gl reef...all specs normal. In it I have a yellow tang and 3 firefish. Since my other fish passed on, I'm wanting to add the following...
1 Sharpnosed puffer
1 Dragon Wrasse
2 Bluespot jawfish
1 Coral Beauty
Any opinions or suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

Hello,Do you have any crabs,snails,ect in the tank,if so i would not put the puffer or the wrasse in the tank.

 

[pufferlover]

I agree if a reef no Puffs or Dragon Wrasse they will eat inverts and some corals.

To get rid of my hair algae I did 5gl water changes daily and resumed using kalkwasser. I started doing all this last Monday and by Saturday about 95% off the hair algae I had was gone. Perhaps changing my filtration helped as well, but I'll just have to see about that in time.
