So I've been slowly loosing several corals, mostly acros. It looks like they're being nibbled on until they go all white. I thought it was my emerald crabs so those got moved to my sump. It's still happening. My current lead suspect is my foxface rabbitfish who definitely likes to nibble. I'm very worried about my SBB order arriving tomorrow. Anyone have advice?

Rehoming the fish is not an option. My husband really likes that fish and he does have a nice personality.
Do you have any pics of how they look?

He’s just going to send the Leo gif again


It pretty much works for anything

Mine is about ten gallons a week...but my tank runs topless.

my creature Millie seems to be doing just fine. Orange blast is hanging in there but not looking great. Sailer moon is brown, dragon stone is a goner, went from brown to white sometime yesterday. One of my Green goblins is still hanging in there with good PE but losing color, other is no bueno. Psycho kiwi is on its way out. Hey I’m happy that I’ve got some SPS doing okay but I think I’m going to take a little break from them after I kill the Scooby and Angry Unicorn you guys made me grab :face-with-tears-of-joy:

Aw thanks! Nope I’ve got a tank overflowing with healthy LPS and Softies so I am thrilled! But I’m still figuring out the acros. Increased difficulty level in that I’m a beginner and I have a tiny 6 month old tank.

I’ve got several acros coming next week in my SBB order. Maybe after I see what lives out of those I’ll reach out for some easy corals! Very much appreciated. My birdsnest, Montis, Purple Stylo, creature Millie seem to be doing great so I’m actually really happy!

What lights are you running again? Do you know your par?

OK. Always here if you need it. Just let me know when you're ready. I have softies too I can share

Yup AI Prime 16, 14 gallon tank. I had par up to about 300 on top of rocks but I was bleaching my Zoas and LPS weren’t super happy. I’ve now got the SPS in about 225 par. At this point, my tank is 90% softies and LPS and I’ve finally got my lighting where they are happy so I may be maxed out on par for now. Not ideal, but running a mixed reef in a nano is tough.

Im about maxed out on this tank. Not much useful coral space left. I’m a few months away from it, but upgrading to about a 40g seems like a cheap no brainer at this point. Kind of enjoying the challenge of working in a nano right now though too. It’s been fun for sure and I’m sure I am learning things that will be helpful later on.

Hey, do me a favor and post a full tank shot. Particularly interested in where your return flow and Nero are.

I think you should try one of these https://amzn.to/3q7LnjR and put it high on your tank wall and basically in front of your flow. I can guarantee the acros will love it. It would be worth trying with one of the new ones you get in, do you have pics of the acros you are getting in from this order.
