00W's AIO Smorgasbord

Has anyone ever experienced a tailspot nipping at corals? My big scoly has looked kind of withdrawn lately. Today it had skeleton poking through. I just walked by the tank, and my tsb was picking at it like a tang on a nori sheet. Ive never witnessed him do this before. I haven't fed the coral in a while, so he wasnt stealing food. Not sure why I just saw what I did.

Me, with this beautiful button scoly

If something doesn't change, he'll have to go, that'll be awful because he was one of my original stocking members and one of my favorite fish.

In the TSB defense, my friend Luis came over yesterday to get some corals, but especially a piece of my weeping willow Japanese toadstool leather that came from him, but his tank broke and he lost almost everything, and I helped him with some corals. The thing is that the TSB has been eating the dead tissue of the toadstool and it could be that something else has damaged your scoly and it is eating that damaged tissue. Keep an eye on it, but it could be a possibility.

I think Luis is right.

I think Luis is right.

I'm going with the option that it's eating dead tissue because from what I've seen in John's tank there's a bit of algae near the aiptasias, but keep an eye on it.

Smorgasbord Club
Official Notice of Provisional Dismissal

To: John [Last Name No Longer Relevant]
From: The Executive Board of the Smorgasbord Club
Date: June 19, 2025
Subject: Symbolic Expulsion for Crimes Against the Club Mascot

Dear John,

It is with heavy hearts (and a healthy dose of mockery) that the Executive Board of the Smorgasbord Club has reached a unanimous decision to symbolically and immediately dismiss you from the club due to your reckless and unthinkable attempt to get rid of the tailspot blenny, our cherished mascot, spirit fish, and wiggly ambassador of all that we hold dear.

Your actions have been officially categorized as “high aquatic treason” and “blasphemy with fins,” directly violating the founding values of this glorious institution.

Effective immediately:

Your access to the club will be revoked in a fully imaginary way.

You will be banned from participating in “Blenny Bash 2025.”

Your name will be removed from the Honorary Algae Guardians registry.


However, redemption is still possible: a formal apology letter addressed to the tailspot blenny, a solemn vow to never question its cuteness again, and perhaps an offering of a fresh algae wafer might earn you a path back into our good graces.

Sincerely,
The Board of the Smorgasbord Club
"For a just reef, with blennies for all."
