    I have never seen this before

    This is what I believe happened to this cleaner wrasse. He got slashed by a tang. I have seen him irritate the kole to a point where it would chase the wrasse away. It looked really bad at first but it slowly healing. So next time another reefer tells me his tang cut another one to pieces in...

    FOWLR system and water

    I'm actuallt more curious than anything as I'll use RO but, to set up a FOWLR system, could we use tap water? I'm on a well. I'm setting up another system and as I'm making water for it I was wondering if we only use RO protect our corals. I can't answer my own question so I came here. Thank you.

    Newbie remarks

    Still at my baby steps with sps but today I clearly noticed this. About 45 min after a 20 gal water change, I could see polyps on many of my colonies and frags. My system is about 200gal total. Very interesting to see the almost immediate reaction. I change 2 gal automatically every night but...
