Looking good doc! After reading a lot about the woes of dry rock, have you considered getting a piece of established live rock to help seed the tank? I would assume all the microfauna and other critters were wiped out by the copper too.

That's a great idea! Thank you!

Any new updates ?
Not really, other than my Pink Margin Fairy wrasse (terminal male) bulling and eventually killing my Red Tail Flasher wrasse (terminal male) a couple of weeks ago. Both wrasses were about the same size eating well and healthy.

Update: No new changes. Tank parameters appear stable so I might try adding back some corals soon. Have to be very selective since my Blue Face Angel was nipping on most of my LPS.
