I've always wanted an Achilles tang but having tried to get them to eat when I worked in the shop showed me how picky they can be. Maybe when I upgrade, I'll order one from live aquaria for that 2 week protection.

Anti suicide? What is that cage protecting. May need to look into it since I have a sea hare.

Wow Scuzy,

That Acro Growth in 1 year is crazy!!! Is that normal or is your Acro on steroids?

I think it'll grow faster now that everything is dialed in.

Looked like my cleaners spawned. Saw little shrimp like things wriggling in my frag tank.

Mysids are different than mysis
Mysids are saltwater while mysis is freshwater (from my my understanding from getting live mysid for raising cuttlefish). Keeping live mysid isn't easy, it's likely you have shrimp larvae but they don't have the food sources necessary to mature and will die. My cleaner shrimp spawn every couple months. They look like mosquito larvae that bunch up to a light source at night. Good coral food, my chalices get HUGE feeders on those nights.

First time I saw it was when my first tank was probably 6 months old. It freaked me out. I thought mosquito layed eggs in my tank.
