Foxface is 6". The largest fish length wise in the tank.

Me and you are the same with a foxface being the biggest fish in our tank. Mine is about 6 inches

Tripple that. Just shy of 6 inches in my thank though. Now the question is... How fat are they? Mine is getting pretty round. LOL

Looks like mine. He is pretty fat too. Fox face change color often from one minute to the next. Mine goes from a canary yellow to white.

Good point. Mine goes camouflage at night. Everyone I've ever seen that is really big is always pretty dark in color. Looks like all of our are happy and colorful. Oh, and fat! LOL

Geese RIP chromis. Carpet anemone is spitting out some undigested pieces of him.

 

[schooleyosis]

Wow, that is some serious nog your skimmer is pulling out. What happened to the Chromis???? Sorry to hear that.

 

[Dowtish]

Sorry mr chromis...Carpet Nems are notorious for eating fish. They are the stickiest and have a more intense sting than RBTA's and other popular nems.

 

[palvyre]

That was 3 days of skimmate.

 

[palvyre]

RBTA looks happy again.

Also received my dosing pump today. Getting it set up.

 

[palvyre]

Calculated out a need for 66 ml of two-part daily. Calibrated the doser and then set it to dose 11 ml at a time 6x daily 1 hour apart. Alk starts at 10 pm and doses 11 ml once every hour until 3 am. Calcium dosing starts at 10 am and continues every 1 hour with 11 ml per dose until 3 pm. Each dosing session is spread out over 2 mins 26 seconds.

What do you think of it so far? Reef octopus came out with something like that the pro dc1 I was looking at it.

 

[11f150]

I guess the RLSS R8-I and the RO pro DC1 are close. Looks like the RLSS R8-I is a better choice for 10 bucks more

I love mine. Works very well and quiet too.
