Finally my parameters are in the zone. I hope I can keep em' there.
SG-1.024, ph 8.2, alk 11 dkh, cal 430, no amonia or nitrites to speak of, not sure what the strontium and magnesium are but I am adding the suggested amounts so I think they are fine. ( plannning to get test kits for those ASAP) For the most part the corals are looking really good again as are the fish, except something has just started beating up my Blue Mandarin. Only new fish additions are a jaw fish and firefish. Very wierd. Although it has sqeezed through the plastic screen on the overflow and gone on several rides into the sump lately. Maybe that was hard on it but it looks more like it's getting beat up by another fish. The mandarin has been in the tank for months with no problems until now. :confused: Any ideas?

Those impellors can cause a fish to look pretty beat up :lol: :lol: :lol:
Hard trip back into the tank ROTF

My pair of watchman gobies have become fairly aggressive lately so I think it may have invaded their space. Maybe they are going to mate?
