Well I noticed his toadstool looks a little limp but then so is mine from time to time.

Well, either too much flow under its skirt, or it's happy to see me!
Mine does, although he pecks around the stylophora skeleton in my tank (thanks to my majestic).African flameback angel... My favorite of the pygmies. But will it leave my corals alone?
Who are the angel experts? @i cant think @Goaway @fishguy242

Do you have any trachyphyllia? Angels can't seem to resist
Hrmm... I love my trachy and lobo a LOT. Would like a clam, but currently there seems to be a clam killer on the loose (or my water is trash). But I do really like the flamebacks... That said, I've also been on the lookout for a severnsi and a few fairies...
I avoid Trachys like the plague in my 5’ tank.
Totally awesome!Current FTS:

Simplicity Dosing (4-Head); any reviews?
Wondering if anyone has tried this and have any reviews to share. Looks like a great price compared to others on the market like DOS and Versas https://www.aquacave.com/simplicity-4-head-dosing-pump.htmlwww.reef2reef.com

Finally happening! I am merging my office IM Nuvo 10g and home Fluval Evo 13.5g into a new Office IM Nuvo 40L AIO!
This was a long and hard decision. I waffled between the SR60, the SR80, the 112INT and even the SR120, because I dream of having tangs. And most recently with the massive sale on EXTs, I did an in depth cost/benefit analysis of the 40L EXT. In the end the 40L AIO and the 40L EXT were about the right size for my office and with a budget I could swallow. So why the AIO instead of the EXT? Well, the idea of having sump flexibility really appealed to me, but all things considered, I thought that the AIO had the better safety features with the emergency overflow and pumps within the same circular system--and safety is paramount to me keeping a tank in my office! One major spill, and it will be O-U-T out!
Space reserved for more build details:
- Tank: Innovative Marine Nuvo 40L AIO
- Stand: Innovative Marine black APS stand
- Light: 3x Noopsyche K7 Mini
- Pump: 2x MightyJet 538gph DC return pumps
- Powerhead: Maxspect xf330 gyre pump
- ATO: IM TI Hydrofill + 5g carboy
- Skimmer:
NuvoSkim mid-size skimmerNone- Filtration: IM Custom Caddy w/floss + carbon + phosguard if necssary; Intank floss holder
- Heater/fans: IM Helio 200W titanium heater/controller as primary wih Finnex 300W titanium element + USB fans connected via Inkbird as failsafe
- Rocks: 40lb old school rock from Fiji and Marshall Islands (pics below, this stuff is super light and porous, not heavy solid bricks!) seeded with rock rubble from Tampa Bay Saltwater (from my IM 10g AIO chambers) + all of the TBS rocks in my Office IM Nuvo 10g
- Sand: Aragonite special grade + seeded with Fiji Mud
- Automation: Reef Factory dosing pump for All-For-Reef; Mini fridge + Reef Factory dosing pumps for Reef Nutrition liquid food
- RODI system: RODI buddy
- Salt: Fritz blue box
More details to follow
For now, here is the visual representation of my buid plan:
It will include a mini fridge with dosing pumps for automatic Reef Nutrition liquid food feeding (no more weekend fasting for my fishies/inverts). Will continue with dosing AFR. I opted against an AWC system since there is too much risk of overflow in an office setting. If there is a failure in the ATO, it should not be enough to overflow the tank, but if it does, then the overflow will first go into a galvanized steel pan under the tank, which should hold 4 gallons before spilling onto the office carpet.
And of course, my stocking plan:

Don’t knock ‘em till you try ‘em.
Guessing flameback angelfish wasn't on your "keep" listDon’t knock ‘em till you try ‘em.
I haven’t had this success until I got rid of each fish that started eating them.
