00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[tharbin]

Big boy.
Chased them around for about 20 minutes.
Couldn't catch them....
Couldn't eat them.
Doesn't even look at them anymore...

I think you will like them a lot Joel. Ours hangs out in front, quickly learned where food comes from and how to properly beg for it, and is constantly 'busy'. They are one of my favorite butterflyfish but like all butterflyfish, risky in a mixed reef.

You can't multitask?

Nope, things slip through unintentionally.

I hope someone informed/warned code4 about my... well, and Kevin, John and Chris's... sense of humor.

Warned, I didn't get no warning. Now back to work. Have to butter up the husband. I need a new LPS! Or another stick to go in my stick garden.

@kevgib67 make sure you eat some gator before you leave.

 

[tharbin]

No problem, friend! I do think that there are models that dont have Bluetooth capabilities. I'd efinitely check into that. :)

You need WiFi capability. Bluetooth only works over a short distance, depending on the BT version, less than 500 feet. You need a WiFi connection to a cloud-based app to get off-site notifications.

First time I had gator was in Tampa!

Have you had any issues with yours Tom?

Sunshine State my butt! Cold and extremely windy, sitting by the pool with a sweatshirt on and my half full beer just was blown off the table! I sent Ron DeSantis a nasty email requesting a refund or I’ll have my attorney sue for false advertising.

Question: why are you sitting by the pool when you're at the beach?

 

[tharbin]

From what I have read if you keep them well fed they do well in mixed reef tanks. They may occasionally pick at a Polyp or at a soft corals but not do real damage

They are a 'with caution' add. Mine decided, after about a week of Aiptasia that my diaseris plate would make a good between-meals snack. No butterflyfish is reef safe but if you have enough coral, and a well behaved butterflyfish, they can coexist. I had to set up a frag tank after mine went after the plate.

What’s in the big box Kevin ?

 

[tharbin]

Ish. They're butterflies still. One of the 3 best for Aiptasia but I believe they're still fairly likely to go rogue. Less likely than a Longnose if I recall? No personal experience though.

@tharbin ?

Copperbands and Longnoses are the least likely to cause real issues but the kleinii is less likely than most of the others but all butterflyfish pick at corals to some extent.

@kevgib67 so it starts! What are you eating today?

Now that's a proper Lobster Roll, looks delicious. You didn't by any chance get the pickle from @kevgib67 did you?

Correct sir!

 

[CoralB]

Thank you! Both the corals and all my fish enjoy the brine shrimp.

Still wilting on mine !

EXACLY !!

Wind is so bad we get sand blasted!

Isn't that what Loreena Bobbit did?

two points in the lead! Chris better bring his A game!

 

[kingranch2003]

I see how you are now. You laugh at my wish for good feelings today then turn around and give Amanda hugs for her typical "amazing day" post. I put some thought and energy into a my posts every morning and you laugh. Don't think you're fooling anyone, mister. I am onto your methods.

(No offense, Amanda but keep your eyes open for the sneaky ways of @Üter . Next thing you know, he'll be inviting you up for a "nice" ride in his boat.)

Any time I feel down or aggravated today, I will remind myself of this post
