i think i got more lol
i was going to ask you, my aquarium lemon fish is nipping my corals what can i do? i put him in a sump
Gorgous fish try to find a angel mix that has sponges or build a fowlr tank.
Stick to corals they won't nip. They tend to like softies and flowing lps like elegance.
Once they get a taste for corals they will always have it.
I used to sell a lot of Freezdried food at the LFS I worked at. Freezdried gets a bad rap but many of the food manufactures actually insisted that the freeze dried food was better preserved and more nutritious than their own frozen food.
Freeze dried foods are great for autofeeders if you have fish that won't eat pellets. Freezdried is also great if you pre-soak it in vitamins as the food will actually absorb more of the vitamins than frozen food will. You can also use freeze dried to soak up some medications and make sure the medicine gets into the fish's' gut.

My lemon peel ate everything in my tank, snails, anemones, coral. I couldn't have a proper reef tank until he/she passed, which was a long time. I think it lasted 7 years.

no wonder my corals were dying LPSs i thought it was me lol till i sow him eating
Sadly, I also have a lemon-peal.. It has destroyed multiple variaties of SPS, gorgonians and palys. And it only likes expensive SPS and palys.. How does it know? It ignores beautiful less expensive SPS and eats my favorites.. It's like it can read my mind... If I look it in the eyes it charges the glass..yes rehome
I so wish I could catch it. It is too smart and skittish to catch in a trap.. Beautiful but destructive fish.

due to him my tank got rearranged my other tangs where stressing due to his impact, i even spend 50$ on the damm fish trapper doesn't even work.
In my moments of hate I have considered a mini harpoon.. but.. it is not the fish's fault for eating it's normal food.. It's my fault for inviting him into my tank... Sometimes you roll the dice and they come up snake eyes. Sometimes it works out... They are truly beautiful fish. I wanted something yellow that wasn't a yellow tang and have lots of coral. I figured it would browse.. not select specific corals and destoy.
