Oh my god I hurt so much. I fell carrying a bucket of dirty tank water and the bucket cut my thigh and part of the wall In my room chipped becsuse the doorknob hit the wall really fast. I’m going to plaster it back in place then sand it down it should be fine

Filefish will eat soft corals like zoas and xenia. They're like emerald crabs: never trust an emerald crab.

I haven’t heard anything about them eating xenia or zoas on the LA testimonials, are you talking about a wc or a spotted filefish? They def eat coral but nobody says the CB filefish eat coral (they are trained to eat aptasia and they are kept in a tank w/ lps and sps)

I heard 1 thing where a wc filefish ate a zoa colony but I am probably just gonna keep like cheap fast zoas

Unless you get them from someone who can guarantee that they eat aptaisia, it's a toss up

Whitespotted pygmy filefish stay small and are reef safe.

 

[NoahLikesFish]

They even seem safe with sessile stuff and nps which will be very cool for my tank

I am going to feed it like prepared stuff, I wanted one because it’s a cool fish not just to eat aptasia

Feed what? you don't want the SPS eating one.

This is the one that I know is reef safe:
