thats a great looking wee tank!......no coral goes into my tank without being dipped first.....while dipping may not get everything every time, its cheap insurance that definitely helps lessen the chance of introducing something nasty like nudis....

I'm a big dipper. I don't usually acclimate my corals. Everything gets a fresh water/iodine wash before it goes into the display. Everything jumps off but i guess some eggs sneaked through.

So it has been almost a week since I picked off the last visible nudibranch and I have not seen any eggs so I am hoping this problem is behind me.

I am having issues with my dKH falling to 5.7 from 6.7 within 24 hours. I did a water change today which brought it up to 6.9 but it is dropping again. I can bring it up with some Arm&Hammer but I guess I need to sort out a dosing routine. Time to buy a calcium test kit. Can I cheap out with Ca test kit or buy Salifert?

My large orange/green Echino is getting too big for this little tank, time to list it for sale I think.

Thank you. The last shot is essentially a FTS.
