banggai

Good evening, I am kind of panicking since I am not sure if this fish behavior/temperament is going to cause stress/death :( Background: 8th month of running a 33 gallon waterbox bare bottom tank with ~25 pounds of dry rock and 1 bag of bio sphere in the sump area. 1 Banggai cardinal added on...

Digging through some old photos and found this photo from when I was doing aquarium service. This tank was a 200 gal mixed reef. Changing out filter socks one day and saw movement in the refugium.
