You can't have everything. Where would you put it?

I love GSP

THIS TIME.

Ok so the POTM is supposed to be red and green. I have plenty of red fish, and a lot of green corals so I could just go with something like this:

Or I could lie with this?

Or I could ignore the green and go for a piece I call “Santa in the snow”?

Opinions please!

#2, totally lie.

Well the tang broke out in velvet last night and was dead this morning. I guess this confirms all of my fears of tangs…

Another vote for #2

Ugh sorry about the tang. Did it infect your other fish?

Another vote for #2

Thanks
Seems to have been well received so far

Don’t know. I’m away all week though I haven’t heard of any issues so far. I’m so worried though. I picked that tang because it was the healthiest looking of like 10 at the LFS.

I guess team wrasse forever now…

Would you consider getting a pre-QT'd tang? Or are you thinking that the parasites are already in the tank and the problem is any new tang would be highly susceptible?

I can't even consider a tang for a long time. Big snails seem to usually survive so I might just go with that. Maybe an even bigger snail like a cowrie. But I think I havde bigger issues then algae now.

Positive thoughts!

They stink at algae control all the pooping they do just contributes to the problem Lol What kind of algae are you dealing with?

Just GHA. It comes and goes it’s just that my usual solution of urchins is no longer an option (should have listened to you on the lunare).

Have you tried big mexican turbos?

Maybe try a Lawnmower or Starry? I've had better luck with Starries.

Also, it wasn't you that got the Court Jesters, right? Try a Hector's Goby for GHA, but they're not super aggressive eaters.

 

[DarkReefer]

I vote pic #2 if that's still relevant, great pics all around though.

Sorry to hear about the tang, fingers crossed that's the end of it and your other livestock carries on okay.

This is my predator tank so those aren’t really options. They’d be good. Thanks though.

Thanks! Hopefully it gets nominated!

Yep
I’ve only lost one of those and I think it wasn’t doing well when I added it.

Starry Blenny will eat GHA sometimes and hold his own. What about a Sailfin?
