if you are thinking about the flame wrasse pair at JL, and only want the male, I will take the female.

Nice thought Peter but it'll be months before I buy more for the QT
It's a 20g so I like to only add 2 or 3 at a time and hope J&L can find the Tamarin
But, with that said, if the Tamarin is MIA for good, I'll put a hold on the pair for 'us'

Well, the Tamarin @ J&L is still MIA, so I grabbed a different wrasse
Our new Lubbock's will make a good buddy for the McCosker's while in the QT
Both ate brine and mysis tonight, 10 mins after introducing the new dude
And the Lubbock's has brought the McCosker's out of hiding

I'm hoping the Coris I grab this weekend will be a good fit too

One more update ...

The dosing pumps are something I should have bought last year
I haven't tested for over 10 days, and today's readings are;
Mag 1450
Alk 7.5
Ca 420

And;
Temp 79F
Sg 1.025
NO3 0
PO4 0 ?

The Seachem additives, and my IO salt, are keeping the Mag up, so I still don't need to dose, and I even wish it was a little lower

I've been feeding the fish heavily lately to perk up my corals, and still no detectable readings, but I'm getting HA again so, a shopping I will go
I'm ordering a Hanna Phos tester as soon as I submit this post

I've had trouble getting readings with the Hanna PO4 tester. I always get a reading of 0 even though I have a bunch of hair algae and turf algae growth as of late. I'm thinking the po4 is being consumed faster than it can be detected by the meter and thus I feel PO4 testing is overrated. I am curious to see what kind if readings you get with your meter.
