Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
And some people get so mad over both topics
You are right, in that sense humanity is devolving, we can no longer have calm conversations hahaha
 
Dears, I need your feedback do you think the landscape will be better if I take out the rock circled in red ?
Morning y'all!
Eat a taco today.
That's mandatory!!

Ah yes, this thread is easily the biggest thread on r2r. Good morning everybody.
Welcome to the Smorgasbord @cdemoss01 ! John Doe is 15 yo and Parker jumps in here from time to time and he is 15 or 16 yo.
 
Ah yes, this thread is easily the biggest thread on r2r. Good morning everybody.
Was hoping you'd join us here!
Now ask all the questions you want young man!
 
Just for the future, I wouldn't bring up politics in Reef2reef. I wouldn't want any of you getting in trouble for something like that. And @John Doe, I know you are outside of the US, but asking questions like those aren't necessarily considered appropriate, because one could have such strong beliefs that it upsets one another. Just a heads up! :) I hope you all had a great day today!
 
Yes, in R2R, topics of religion and politics are not allowed and it is understandable, for the same reason I said before, it is not the case with us but nowadays those topics cannot be discussed with everyone, @John Doe do not think that we are scolding you lol I know that you did it with the best intentions because we were all a little quiet, I firmly believe that politics is a topic that should be discussed without interposing friendship but this is simply not the place for that.
 
Is it that dangerous Jojo?
Cucumbers, most importantly the filter feeding variety, have very potent toxins that if released can kill all your fish in no time. The major risk is one of them going into your powerhead, but being bothered can also make them release toxins. They are meant to be pretty chill, usually. That's why they sometimes get called a cuc nuke (not to be confused with clean-up-crew nukes, which is a different thing where your hermits band together and stage a coup d'etat in your tank--hermits, especially those blue legs, are well-known for their scorched ocean policies).

Oh oh, it's been many days since I last saw mine, I've also given up on the cleaner wrasse, too many days without seeing it.
