No slime. Just closed up.

I seems to start opening near the end of the day.

I did a freshwater dip, can't really tell if it helped.

My orange tipped elegance on the other side of the tank is doing amazing

keep an eye for any white slime thats the big thing with elegance , if you do see some slime dont let it stay on the elegance.

unless its cut or damaged i think youll be fine.



heres 2 excellent links on my favorite beautiful coral

You're just a shill for Big Salt! Ron Paul, Illuminati, Ayn Rand, etc. etc.

I almost never do water changes, I am the 1%.

The cleaner wrasse is gone. I will never buy another one since I cannot consider them reef safe any longer.

My poor clam is coming back, but it will take some time to heal all the bite marks. Today it was fully open and seamed happy despite the wounds.

Too bad about your wrasse daniella3d , does that mean it's for sale?
