Scott not sure what you see as yellow polyps.
Ronnie I am taking a chance with the Wrasse and my Peppermint and Pom-Pom but I have read that if they are in there before the Wrasse, the Wrasse may not bother them. I guess we'll see. I wouldn't care so much if the Wrasse got the Peppermint but he better leave the Pom-Pom alone!!!
Reb I have had the Wrasse about 2 weeks now. He is doing great, eating, leaving the other fish alone. As a matter of fact there are times when I see all of them together just chillin!

Your selection of fish is awesome. I know the foxfaces come and go in your tank but they make such a beautiful addition. What do you feed everyone?

Yup it is the Oceanic skimmer. For me it works well enough. I try to keep my bioload low anyway. The only real issue is how often to replace the airstone. I do it about once every 6 weeks or so.
I have recently (3 weeks now) started using Prodibio in this tank. Since starting I have noticed that the skimmer is doing a better job of producing foam and not dumping so much water into the collection cup. I have always gotten a light brown, tea colored skimmate from it though.

What is the prodibio? And are you using direct replacement air stones?

Yes direct replacements which are Coralife wooden stones.
Prodibio is a number of different additives designed to increase biofiltration. Explanation would take to much typing here. Go ahead a google it. This is a test I am currently doing to see if it is all it is touted to be. Came across it doing some research into vodka - sugar - vinegar dosing.
