Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
What do you think of their bristle worm eating abilities?
I'm not sure. I have a Melanurus and a Leucoxanthus. I still have the occasional Bristleworm after lights out but I rarely see any during the day. If I disturb something on the sand bed and a bristle worm shows up, the Melanurus and the Leucoxanthus will fight over it. Sometimes my Springeris join in the hunt as well.
 
Can I put different wrasse together.
Yes, but it depends on which ones you want. Typically you'll only want 1 of each genus. There's a thread on here called The Wrasse Lovers Thread that has a ton of conversation daily answering questions just like this one. Several, as @00W called them, experts.

Awesome I will try to find it!
 
Hey I just want to make sure I do this right to kill the aiptasia.

I take a metal syringe and stab the aiptasia in the mouth and inject boiling water or lemon juice into it,
Once I have done that what do I do?
Will it just fall off and spread even more? Or will it kill it immediately and I can just take it out by hand?
What’s the best way to deal with this?

Thanks everyone
 
Now I feel compelled to ask. How many believe, or want to believe in all of those creatures? And the Meg.
I am very naive I believe everything.
Ghosts especially.

I have only heard about doing this never done it.

I think I watched every episode of the X Files and believed every one.
Loved that show.
Every episode on VHS.

No it just dissolves, need not do anything. I’ve only used lemon juice and not boiling water.

I only believe in fairies, if not one dies and I don’t want blood on my hands.
