    Well that just about sucked as bad as it could (profanity laden post)

    I had aiptasia eating peppermint shrimps for a short while but they didn't last, I started doing what Mark recommends, just nuke the ones too close to corals and let the rest be lol

    In regards to lasers, just like nuking them, unless you can reach them all (unlikely) then you'll never truly get rid of them. Laser's nice to own if you're willing to fire it up whenever you spot aiptasia so more of a maintenance tool in my opinion than an aiptasia silver bullet.

    unfortunately I've had to succumb to accepting aiptasia as a permanent member of the tank :(

    Not sure of this particular coral but many corals engage in chemical warfare by casting their guts which would sting attacking or adjacent coral. I knew it was normal when after 5 minutes of it being left alone the "guts" retracted and polyp looked normal again.

    Yay 3rd tank upgrade in this house

    it's going to be built into the wall with a dedicated utility room (stair closet) which will be itself waterproofed against up to 40g spill. I've never had my DT leak unless broken so I'm not too concerned with that but sump & equipment, yeah had those leak plenty of times, hence the large...

    Yay 3rd tank upgrade in this house

    On a brighter note, I finished remodeling the entire first floor short of new hardwood floors (leaving it as absolute last step) so in terms of this build, the house is ready for it, my tank is ready for it, I am not lol

    My DC return pump failed ... and fish died ...

    Isn't the Jebao a chinese knock off of another chinese pump? I'd venture to say that the same fascility makes all these pumps regardless of brand or color choice of the plastic housing.

    My DC return pump failed ... and fish died ...

    this is why I always run 2x powerheads inside the tank on a separate circuit than return pump & controller, this way if return pump fails fish can still breathe, if controller somehow shuts down, fish can still breathe. All it took is an extra power strip dedicated to powerheads.
