Definitely going to get into the frag game up north. There were 3 vendors. Now what to call myself RBR Reef? Or RB2R?
How about… the white wall corals. Makes me think on rob lanister from game of thrones. Up north. Giant ice wall. That’s if you like game of thrones

There’s 3 left when I got mine

To be honest I’m not sure. I have not seen a variant like this. I know joker corals has true to life photos, this is where my torch of the god came from.

They call this JCC Princess Peach Holy Grail and it was surprisingly only $130
Oh. I need to pay attention to that. I’d be going for that sucker when it’s available

My cbb still chasing his reflection. I put live brine, the stick on the wall stuff... No bueno. He did peck at the rock once but that's about it. Not sure what to do, it's been almost 24hrs.
Live brine is usually a 100% feeding response. I got mine feeding off of little neck freshwater clams from the grocery store.

I’ve killed a few so I’m not Cbb whisperer but I found them on the way out if they paced the glass all day.

Try offering it zoas or acan frags. I’m not sure if it’s a tank with them already, as you’ve mentioned having a larger 450 that you were just now stocking. I believe you said it was larger one so is pretty stuck in its way until it learns. Once it takes try the sticky stinky food on the plug. My Cbb loves that stuff.

Most of my deaths came when I stocked them after other fish. The two I’ve kept were added first with Anthias. The system I have now my cbb was eating mysis by the end of a week. Took the clam minced and mixed with mysis.

The biggest problem I have is that when I try to offer it food the other fish grab it so quick. There have been a few times that I feel like he had a good chance and didn't take it. The sticky stuff wasn't really sticky, came right off. I'm not home tonight but tomorrow I'll try clams again and tie it to a rock. I have a bird wrasse and she's quick. I'll try to keep the others occupied for a few minutes. I just don't know what to do about the pacing, there's not much I can do about that.

To be honest I’ve been bombing my tank the last three days with my cbb over feeding to the point that mysis and whatnot are guarenteed to be available. Deal with the nutrients and consequences later.

I have too. Luckily in 450 gallons I don't really have much to worry about, it takes a lot to move a parameter. I have very little coral in that tank.
My other fish are pretty happy and fat. I put a bubbler in the shrimp to try and keep them alive, added some phyto.

You need light diffuser separate the tank, looks horrible but it’s stressed. A bird wrasse or any wrasse is a fast aggressive eater. It’s a 80-100 dollar fish it’s up to you if it’s worth the time. I do suggest you visit nyaqautic for your next one. Visit on Sunday 12 est during the live sales. They will feed and only send if eating. I got my Achilles from them and a leopard wrasse for my mom. Both of which are alive still.

I would take fine or six whole clams frozen and drop them in the tank. A few around the glass it paces and near the rocks. It was the only fish though I had not eating out water column, literally no competition. Try a zoa or acan, I think you’ll have success with zoas.
