Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
My wife and I aren't going to do a BTA again. It was so much stress for us when we were out of town. Always worrying if it would be ok or not

Exactly, you never know... they could be in the same spot for 1 year but the moment you leave town, oh hey a cozy powerhead! Or I'm going to just mo down this line of corals with my powerful stings.
 
They also had a twin spot but it was ordered for someone
Cash talks Amanda! Should have shown 'em a Fifty and said ... no, I'll take it home...
 
I feel like I'm the only advocate for Six-lines on R2R sometimes... they need a voice, they're misunderstood 🤣
The only thing that separates a six-line from Nosterafu are horns.

Or go for a walk and kill everything in its path.
 
Steven, did your six-line steal food from corals? Meaning, I had one and I would spot feed some corals and the six-line would take the food.

She's going to let me know if they don't want it

It rarely does but so do my clownfish... I don't think it's been an issue.

Yes the squares are about 3/4 inch openings
I would get some nylon screening and fit it over it. I've had 1/2" wide fish jump through 1/4" wide slots. When they really freak, they jump, and they have amazing aim.

I think I might have some window screen outside if not I can have my husband get some today.
