00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[luis angel]

Stopped at the lfs today and I saw this Ultra Galaxy rainbow bobble tip anemone and wow I just had to have. It is the most expensive animal I’ve bought in all my years of reefing. I know it looks great now but it’s only been in the tank a few hours. I’ll take a picture and post it when its settled, it will blow you away.

Walker had a lot of those but she didn't like them any more ;)

Just got home and the remaining fish seem to be ok they are Citron Clown Goby, Scopas Tang, Leopard Wrasse and the Solar Fairy Wrasse, the shrimp in the tank also seem to be fine.

Glad your trip was fun and so sorry to hear about your loss. :(

I've noticed Duncan's need a lot of flow once they really start to split and grow heads. Once 1 head starts to go the rest follow pretty quick. Band saw is the only way to seperate the heads through the flesh cleanly.

For torches the restore feeding is pretty good for long term. Soak food in some and then spot feed.

If you have fish that won't allow you to spot feed then you can broadcast the whole tank. Or remove the torches and give them a bath for 24-72 hours.

Have a small plastic tub set up with egg crate, a heater, powerhead and or airstone. For this I think restore alone is fine, especially if the torches are not showing signs of stress.

Use tank water and no acclimating is necessary.

Oh sh it, I'm so sorry to hear this as well.

Others gave great advice and the inkbird will help ;)

Hey thank you for helping out.

I soaked some flake food in the restore for 10 min and then spot feed them. I hope they are eating it, I can’t tell.

I would do the dip for 24 hours but I don’t have the setup. What other dips work well that dont need a heater or things like that?

I also don’t understand why it would be receding. All parameters are good and the torch opens up fully every day.

I did notice that on the skeleton of the torch it looks like there are these sponge things on it. I can’t get a good photo. What do you think.

Thank you @MERKEY

Oh yes sponges and any little worms or even brittle starfish will irritate them enough to cause slight recession over time.

A lot of people use a soft toothbrush to remove the easier sponges.

Sometimes some serious picking is required.

It's a pain to keep them clean for sure.

You can do the dip for less time just keep the water airatted.

Even 30 minutes would allow them to ingest it.

This I like.
The ugly truth.
Y'all post some pics of your own fish tank room/stand/closet, etc and I'll take one when I get home.
