LONG awaited update ---

@Humblefish @melypr1985 @Brew12 @4FordFamily

So I found the culprit... It was Dinoflagellates. Before they reared their ugly head and full invasion force, my fish started having issues. Everything I tried failed to help... Everything. Then Dino's came in, and I stopped updating this thread as I faced the Dino issue. It wasn't until I started running HEAVY carbon (rox 0.8) that the dino's starting dying off, and immediately all my fish health improved. So much so that it hit me like a ton of bricks almost instantaneously.

Most my fish were fine, but my Lunate Fairy & Blue Flasher could NOT handle the Dino toxins, the Lunate much more so than the blue flasher.

Totally back to normal and 100% healthy. He's back to be a jerk.
