Really nice healthy looking tank.

I'm off to Maui for surf but I may dive; I leave at 7am totally stoked. I'll post some pics when I get back. Talk to you soon. BTW tank is good to go... No worries what could possible go wrong while spending two weeks in Maui? Just playing my system is mostly automated and I ave a house sitter...

I use Salifert and I like them. Which test kit are you using?

Its really hard to say what the problem is without a full description of your system and photos. It could be a number of things like pests or disease. However after reading the thread I am led to believe you weren't dosing or testing your water. If you have an SPS tank like I do and many other...

I live down the street from Jenks Aquarium and I never stepped foot in the place. I remember a few years ago they tried to get a liquor license but the town declined the request. Thank god that didn't happen. I guess the staff is drinking

Look into the Reefkeeper 2

Its really hard to say what causes HLLE it could be poor water, stray voltage or poor diet. My thoughts on reading this thread is the fish has been in medicated water for a long time. Whats type of filtration is on the DT? If the water is fine and you have no stray voltage then start feeding...

Sounds like your fish is stressed. Keep an eye on the fish it could ich from the stress. I'm no expert on CBS but are they cleaners? If so this could be the reason for its behavior.

Blue ring octopus are very short lived and carry a venom that is crazy strong. I agree... Stupid Irresponsible

Sounds like a solid plan to me. If you need some help let me know. BTW I still have that frag for you. I'll hold onto it just let me know when you get settled.

I suggest water changes and use RODI water. Is this a fish only rank?

Sorry to hear that. Mandarin can be difficult to acclimate and typically eat pods. If you try another I would suggest buying some pods since it sounds like there weren't enough to sustain its life.

This is what you want for your mandarin http://www.oceanproaquatics.com/shop/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=copepods

I agree easy answer here.

Sweet, nice pic

I printed a picture of a clownfish hosting an anemone and taped it to my tank. My maroon clownfish got a little spooked at first but after about a week she figured it out and is happily hosting my RBTA.

Congratulations, really nice caps and great shots!

Its really trial and error until you dial it in. Here is a good link on water chemistry. http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2007-04/rhf/index.php
