my new baby... AKA The Café

[F i s h y]

What would be possible suggestions then for angels from the cafe that could help dont wanna mess up and grab a coral demon....i might try the peroxide dip @F i s h y stated tonight....but a dwarf or flame angel might work i havr an abundance of sponge in the sump to i could let him get after.....idk just trying to see options and what might be available near me...

small angels are hit or miss when it comes to fleshy LPS and things like acan, favia, etc. some people have lots of luck others not so much. I have seen many posts about captive bred dwarf angels not eating coral due to it not being in its diet from day 1. but i wonder if that also means it wouldnt eat sponges. also, if they get a taste for them, im assuming thats game over and they wont stop

I got a Japanese swallowtail. That's supposed to be safe. Unk on the sponge factor.

They are not supposed to graze on live rock, but water column feeders. That's why they are considered reef safe.
If that makes sense.

Tell @Nate Chalk to give you his flame angel, or else many many... things might happen....

I just don't know what kind of things. He's got the only true reef safe angel I have ever seen.

Got him super tiny. He may be the one nipping at the zoas. but honestly there's so much there its not a huge deal.

I havent set up a camera. No pic no proof

But everything else is bright and happy.

Not much going on here...Just did a small water change, fed fish.

Added an additional hour to my peak light last week. Seeing how that goes.

Ordered 2 pieces of glass to try drilling again. (anxious)

Never heard back from ocean devotion on fish... will try again.

Whats everyone else up to?

I forgot to unplug my hole and the nitrates hit zero. Couple sticks looked a little stressed. Found out why

unplugged the hole and dropped in some skimmer sludge and dosed a little extra
