Ahhh, cant wait for Christmas prime rib dinner!The Prime rib roast is doing a mini dry age in the fridge out in the garage. 13.27 lbs. of roast. I cut 3 lbs. off and froze it to be used at later date for philly cheesesteaks--I'll slice it up thin with the meat slicer. Can't believe the price Costco has for these roasts. It would have been a $450 rib roast at Pat LaFrieda's or the like.
Most reefers hate to see aefw acro eating flat worms but I believe not all flat worms are acro eating so getting an ID may be beneficial for future reference.

I hope they are not aefw. I have one acropora digi. I think I might try flatworm exit. It may be time to set up a temporary tank and start over with new rock and substrate and clean my reef out. Now I have aptasia, vermatid snails, and flatworms. I thought I was dipping everything so well.

2 pajama cardinals, watchman goby, snowflake clown, and a purple firefish.
They pose a real threat.
Even if they are not the acro eating specific ones they will establish a large population and thats when trouble starts. They are ugly to see around, they release strong toxic chemicals when they die and they can keep your corals from photosynthesis.
I havent had good result with salifert worm exit and I have numerous cases around me where it was the same.
Sadly the best pest control would be to have a predator that eats them.
Good luck

I will give the quick fix a try first, and then a predator second
Cool article discussing using phytoplankton as a sort of refugium.

Using Phytoplankton to Control Bad Algae
Despite their lush appearance, natural coral reefs are extremely nutrient-poor environments. Not likely to be able to grow too much bad algae. Corals

I dose a small amount of phyto feast every day. I wonder how much of an effect that’s having on my nutrient levels...and now that the bottle is older, I’m seeing more algae now than I have in a while. I’ll get a fresh bottle, if my algae goes away I’ll know. Great article!!Cool article discussing using phytoplankton as a sort of refugium.

Rainbow bottom anemones. Local LFS has 3. I already have one, back side of the rock work with my prettiest rock flowers, but I can see it if I look at the right angle lol.
I am debating on buying all 3. That way I can say I have more than 1 of all types of available anemones lol.

My grandmother gives me a US Mint proof set every year. She has for the last 20 years when I expressed an interest in odd coins as a boy.
