Thank you my friend they normally get it back on pretty quick so hopefully it won't be off long. I left the tanks with battery powered air bubblers running.

I almost had one at the shop I go to but thought that the melanera wrasse would tear it up . I should trade him but he’s the only one that eats bristle worms .

I didn’t even think about it until you mentioned bristle worms, but I all at once don’t see any. My Coris Wrasse must be taking care of them. I’ve seen several large ones and I get babies in my filter socks all the time, but I haven’t in the last couple of weeks. I have a Carpenter’s Fairy Wrasse also but no way is he eating them. He just hangs out at the food door all day - fat and lazy.

OPPs ! A bristle worm lover . Sorry Steve !
My melanares wrasse doesn’t eat them , he just moves them out of my tank in to the sump . Then he destroys them into shredded little flesh pieces as he devours the little suckers .

**fingers crossed** In the summer, I'd be worried about the heat.

Good morning. I'm really not sure what you just wrote, not quite following it. Something about a melanares, bristle worms and little flesh pieces.
