Luckily he's gotten dehydrated, we were worried when he was puking so much because he went awhile without a wet diaper but we got fluids in him and eventually he started up again. Been a rough few days for the little guy

Sorry bro.
Been awhile for little one's for me but I remember.
Hardest part is they really can't say anything.
I remember every single time school/daycare/whatever started all the kids got sick.
Good vibes Michael.

Luckily he's got a great mom and she takes real good care of him while daddy swears at the fish tank
 
Well I noticed some white spots on my clown tonight. Looks like they're gone, but I am still going to closely monitor every fish.

Also, my firefish has been MIA for 3 days now. I have a lid, and I've also checked the floor around the tank JIC. Kind of starting to get worried. Anyone have any thoughts? I'm hoping he's just spooked from the new additions, but he definitely could be dead, and that's what I'm starting to think.

It's hard to guess but it could be either of the 2 options, let's just hope that he got scared and is hiding.

I've had Firefish hide for up to a week before when they get spooked. I wouldn't worry yet as long as you've checked for jumping.

If it’s a frammer it can touch Frogspawn and hammers. For now leave it be it has plenty of room and it might reveal its id as it grows.

I agree with this. It'll be a while before it encroaches in the others. By then we'll know. Euphyllia are generally good with other Euphyllia, except torches which are usually only nice to other torches.

Wow that looks amazing! Sorry about the little one. I hope he gets back to himself soon. I have 8 and 3 years old boys and it is never gets easier seeing them sick.

I wish the Hydros auto feeder could be used as a standalone.. it's just a wifi feeder and it basically a ehiem I think.. lemme use it on its own so I don't buy an eheim now that won't pair up later lol

I believe someone said it's basically an Eheim without the internal fan to help dry the food.
