You’re so very welcome! Hopefully I’ll get the next batch caught in 3 -4 weeks. Although Jason said the shoal might mysteriously disappear :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Might need igloo coolers for some of these. They are big fish! Will have to access them when I have them at my house.

Ohhh, so cool to see fish in the tank. I realize I have no history on what was there coral or fish wise; and that the Cronie Express has been busy with deliveries- so please ignore my questions/comments if they don’t align.

Bottom-line - Beautiful!
 

DO YOU USE A PAR METER WHEN PLACING NEW CORAL IN YOUR TANK?

  • Yes! I think it's important for the longterm health/growth of my coral.

    Votes: 5 7.1%
  • Yes, but I don't find that it is necessary all the time.

    Votes: 16 22.9%
  • Not currently, but I would like to.

    Votes: 31 44.3%
  • No. I don't measure PAR and my corals are still healthy/growing.

    Votes: 14 20.0%
  • Other (please explain).
