    Need a copperband that's eating prepared foods?

    I would guess part of it was most of the aiptasia it could get to were consumed. These were not in my home tanks ever, but clients tanks. Usually I utilize autofeeders with pellets, and rely on the client to feed frozen. So sometimes it’s a bit of a mystery how much they are really eating that...

    Amount, also quality and type of food probably. Likely also helps for them to have other things to pick at in the tank.

    Need a copperband that's eating prepared foods?

    I have found they don’t eliminate aiptasia completely (not sure anything really will) I found they tend to leave little bits behind that regrow. Not sure if it’s on purpose to maintain food supply, or just part of the aiptasia magic act. Also, there are often little ones p km aces they can’t...

    Looks like cyano to me. Not bubble algae Have you tested nitrate/phosphate?

    Help needed

    Make a tank journal if you don’t have one. Looks ok to me. What do you think is off? What have you been doing?

    Free 3.5" undulated triggerfish

    It wasn’t that big. Jumped out of the water and got me as I was getting food out of the foil package. Luckily just sliced me pretty good and didn’t lock on. I used super glue instead of paying for stitches.

    Derek's 225g - Magnifica / SPS Reef

    I’m curious if I would want to start a tank up or be too intimidated if I saw this in person.

    Clownfish

    Me neither. And I’m not trying to single him out as a terrible person. I’ve been through some things where it’s just about impossible to handle everything the way i would ideally like to. More of a reality of the way things are in real life than an ideal of how id like to see things work within...

    Clownfish

    Sadly not the first, and probably not the last. Taking free or really cheap stuff (instead of letting people who would use it take it) and selling it for profit is lame. In my opinion of course! Seems there are always those types lurking around here sadly.
