Great photo of the gold spot! Thanks for sharing your experience. This is pretty much how I expect ours to go. Our FF is about 7 inches and the Gold Lined is about 3.5, so they don't seem to care about each other at all. I assume that will change as the gold lined gets bigger. We're gonna ride...

I have some gloves that should work, but I never would have though to wear them. Thanks for the heads up.

It's going to a battle of two fronts. Manual removal and bumblebees. I've seen some folks have reportedly great success and some see no difference. So we'll see. Thanks for the advice on the number. I don't want too many of them in there, so I think 15-20 is a good start.

This is the attitude I'm going in with. I want to get them away from my corals first and whittle away the rest as I can. The only real damage I can see that they cause is harming corals. And I can see that in my torch. There are a TON in there, so I'm going to take a few weeks and do my best...

How many bumblebees for a 140 gal? i was thinking 15 or so

We're gonna do our best. Thanks for the guidance!

Vermetid snails... and it turns out I have hundreds of them :( I had no idea what all these "reddish sticks" were growing all over my tank. I finally looked into it. Yeah, they are everywhere. The initial weapons of choice will be bone cutters and bumblebee snails. Any suggestions?

We added a few females brining the total to 4. One started transitioning to male a few days later. Pretty cool to watch that happen

Update on this. We decided to put the little GL Rabbitfish in the tank and see what happens. And... nothing happened.... the Gem Tang chased him around for a day and that was it. The Foxface is like 3x's the size of the GL and he doesn't seem to care. I know this little experiment will come to...

Thanks for the welcome everyone! Hopefully I can contribute as much as I bombard with questions. Cheers!

We have an established Foxface (named Hendrix) in our 135 gallon. He's about 7 inches and, while he mixes it up with the Convict Tang a bit, he's generally peaceful. We bought a Golden Lined Rabbitfish (the wife has named him Harvey) from Biota because we thought he was cool looking, but frankly...

Hey Mike! yeah, she's totally into it. This was my idea to start, but she has really gotten involved. Thanks again for your help with the tank! Really happy with the final outcome

Good eye! I realized I forgot him. Since the move, he has taking to hiding most of the time, so I sometimes forget he is in there

Thanks! My wife is really good at aquascapes and I love the way this one turned out

Hi Everyone! I've been lurking for a while, so this is my first post. I'm Rob and I've been reefing for almost exactly 2 years. Started with a used 90-gallon and, after about 18 months we decided to upgrade to a new Waterbox Peninsula 6025. Kenny over at High Tide helped us order the tank and...
