Thanks!
I was considering getting a few females to go with him. I have room in my tank for more stock and can't decide what I want.

I finally got my parameters under control. It takes 300ml of two part dosing weekly to keep it at appropriate levels.

The caulerpa prolifera is filling in nicely. It did take root in some rocks that I pulled out so I'm waiting to see if it grows from the roots. If it does then I'll remove it, however having it in there is keeping my tang happy because he grazes from it regularly. So I guess we will see how it does.
There's some aiptasia that I'm going in to take care of today, the last time I hit it with vinegar, it just seemed to grow a whole bunch more around where I treated even though the main piece died.

Very nice! I used to have one. Very colorful when they get to flashing. Hold a mirror up to the tank and see what he does!

It looks like the lack of nitrate in my tank is definitely the cause of my birdsnest browning out.
3 different times I waited 5 or 6 days between dosing my potassium nitrate in my tank. Each time my birdsnest lost all the green coloration and within 2 days of dosing it again it regained some of the color back.
I'm gonna have to give that a shot! Thanks for the tip

Ugh, my blue throat trigger snapped and started tearing up my clowns and wrasse. It looks like I am going to have to trade him in

Sorry to hear that. Hope the others are ok.

The other fish are okay, my clowns have taken the brunt of the punishment.
They seem okay, but are a little worse for wear.

I started changing how I manage things to see if it works to manage the aggression in my trigger. I switched to pellets as my primary food source and have been feeding heavily twice a day. It seems to have curbed the trigger's aggression.
That's good. Just keep an eye on those phosphates.

Did some tank maintenance yesterday which included pulling out all the caulerpa I had in there since I got sick of looking at it. I think my tang might be a little sad because he doesn't have it in there to graze on all day.
I also took a couple pictures of the acropora frags I got. 2 of the 3 are doing great, while the blue cali tort didn't make it sadly. Both of these were fresh frags when I got them so it's nice to see them encrusting their plugs nicely.

Thanks! I was really wishy washy about getting the Garf purple bonsai.. but it's grown on me and I am really liking it. The green slimer has been on my most wanted list of corals since I started doing salt water.

How were you wishy washy over that bonsai? I'd kill for one.
