It's Just a Tank

[Goaway]

Man, it’s a pain how the foxes are beautiful but they can really turn. I avoid Zoas as something in my tank picks them, the issue is I can’t rule it down to the foxface as I also have a CBB and several wrasses. Although I doubt the wrasses would go after the coral.

I never seen a wrasse eat a coral. Only spit sand on them. I know the cbb and foxy may enjoy them. Mine would pick on the ones with the long lashes and eventually figured out they were not aiptasia. She no longer cares for them. Foxy got a new home. I was ticks seeing 70 utter chaos get eaten.

I know how you feel, I had these stunning Zoas added to my tank along with two frags of Candy Apple Zoas which has always been my dream zoanthid.

Both the candy apple zoas and these guys were gone by the end of the week unfortunately. I may attempt zoanthids in my nano however I’m not 100% certain as I really want to get rid of some of my Mushrooms and relocate them into my 4’ tank however I can’t as the yumas have gotten hold of a big main rock piece.

Hopefully you can eventually keep them, they’re beautiful coral but an absolute pain to not kill off!

A lot happens in our reef tanks. I've read reports on fox faces nipping on soft coral. Keeping them on lots of nori and fresh macro algae was supposed to help prevent that from happening. She never picked on the zoas until I got the utter chaos. They all became an expensive meal.

I have managed mine with other softies (Leathers, mushrooms, chilli’s, you name it I’ve had a foxface with it). I even had my first foxface with zoas and he didn’t care, I didn’t have a CBB with him so I do actually think my CBB I currently have mistook zoas for Aiptasia.

Now I remember when I got my foxface, he was in a tank FILLED with softies and many of the invasive ones such as Zoa’s too, not one of them was touched, he’d pick between them to eat the algae around them though.
I do think Magnificents are less likely to nip compared to the Vulpinus and Unimaculatus. I know when I worked in the LFS we had a foxface in each coral display that was large enough (We even had some with rabbits), if any had to be removed it was often the Unimaculatus and Vulpinus, very rarely did we have to remove the Uspi’s and Magnificus’.

I wish I knew this before hand. I may have tried a magnifi.

So, I had an entire story typed out and CTRL + A took place. Lovely Here's a short version.
My yuma frag was abducted last night. I looked everywhere in ever nook and cranny visible. Nodda. Tore the right side apart. And found the brittle starfish curled around the yuma rock. Urchin leaves it alone, but the starfish grabs it. That's my luck.
So now everything looks different. On the right.

bta still there

Here's yuma now.

I guess he thought the yuma was a teddy bear.

it's an actual rock. The feet are made of seashell of some form.

Probably an agate. I'd think something like Moss Agate.

Looks like it. Brown moss, plume agate. Rocks are fascinating.

Good morning. I have laryngitis now. I can hardly talk and my husbands laughing at me.

I haven't gotten bored of the morning coral.

Inflating, always looks weird.

Hubby got the right idea...

This weekend or the next. I haven't figured it out yet. Still working on that. Don't know if I want the acantho or not. Got a few frags to take over.
