The blue tangs fins are amazing! I feel for you and mysterious coral deaths while everything else looks good.

I did something today that I have not done for a long time... I added some fish. Anytime you add fish, you can be sure of one thing. There will be ONE resident fish that will attack the new guy(s). In this case, my rusty angel seems to dislike my new butterfly fish.


I also added a hawkfish, but he is smarter and has hidden away for now.

Good luck with the new additions untamed. I just finished reading through the whole thread - love the build! I'm going for something similar soon.

After having set up your system and run it for several years, is there anything you would go back and change or have built differently?

Absolutely nothing. Maybe I'm lucky...maybe it is a matter of healthy fish. Ich has always been in the tank.

The three butterfly fish turned into a bit of a love triangle last week. Two of them decided the third one was a third wheel and #3 was relagated to living in the very top left corner of the tank.

This came to its inevitable end today as #3 has vanished. Another body that will never be found.

In addition, one of my halides blew up it's protective glass, showering glass bits all inside the tank. Directly under this, I found the body of my abalone. Could be related...or not.

Fun spending an hour fishing tiny glass pieces out of coral heads.

What is that coral? Is it a Montipora? I have what looks similar, gets brown polyps. Came with my tank and never been able to completely identify it. Soft tho, Like stiff leather I guess
