Eddie's Aquariums

[DEL]

My Blotched Borbonius Anthias has finally started showing himself after about 6 months in my LPS dominant Waterbox.

He didn’t come out until I added the three yellow tangs that are destined for my grow out tub. Who knew tangs could be great dither fish??? I guess I’ll have to leave one or two in there once that system is running.

Yes there use to be a ton of bubble algae in this system up until a couple of weeks ago. I didn’t do any maintenance on the physical display that required my hands in the tank for months because I was so paranoid about scaring the most expensive fish I’ve ever bought to death.

I was so happy to see him out after I had to take this video!

What did you do for the bubble algae ?

What did you do for the bubble algae ?

Scrubbed it with a tooth brush and added an emerald crab. I still see it every so often but it’s under control. I’m contemplating getting a little fox face to help get rid of it once and for all. I think I have it in my SPS system too but it only pops up in my refugium, the fox face there loves it.
