    Benggai cardinals fight! Now what?

    My benggai are probably both males and fighting each other (fluval 13.5). I moved one into a quarantine 5 gal (not ideal) and need advice. Do I add a female, then reintroduce the third? Or add a female to each tank? Thanks coral friends!

    Do some fish scratch but not have ick?

    I have noticed that some fish seem to scratch themselves against the sand bed every once in a while and it seems territorial to me but was not sure if that was a "thing" so I thought I'd ask and see if anyone knew.

    Outsmarting bullies in order to introduce new fish

    Small backstory and description of inhabitants: I have a ~50 gallon reef, no sump, that has been running for about 4 years. I started up with 2 ocellaris clowns, 1 ecsenius bicolor and 1 stenopus hispidus shrimp. All of these 4 learned to live together and were the only ones lasting; the...
