In addition to Timmy, I also have a Yellow and a Bicolor Angelfish. They decimated a leather that was in there then I took most of the other stuff I saw them nipping on. They sample everything I put into the tank then If I see them go back its into the frag tank. Otherwise it stays.
So far no sps; some lps and some soft corals are munched.

Had a glitch with the filter roller last week and its been running unfiltered since then. The fuge pad picked up the slack then started backing up flow so my salinity dropped a little because my ATO filled the difference.
I reset everything and cleaned the fuge so I'm back in action. I took the opportunity to replace some of the PLA parts of the roller mat that were delaminating with stronger PETG versions.

Timmy still grunts a lot. Still hand-feeds daily; other fish joining in too. The disfigured hippo tang 'scarface' I've been calling, sits at the top left corner of the tank and splashes water out when he is hungry now... not just a little.

This is the biggest reason I miss having an emperor. I would walk pass the tank, and my emp would go crazy. Splashing water and being a drama queen because I didn't feed him.

i have 7 babies from my last batch and my male is holding again, should be any day. i was just trying to gage how long until they would be considered a tradable or sellable size.
