(haven't even smoked yet..) I have wondered if sps know they have a neighbor that wants to kill them before coming up with a plan of attack which could include encrust first build a large army then attack upward vs race to the sun to shade out nearby enemies? Could that also be a factor in...

spitballing (I have never used an auger but hear about moisture)- under the auger cover make a chamber to safely hold a rechargeable desiccant packet. Time to re-up and add food, microwave the moisture back out of the desiccant packet and place back in the chamber with the new food...

I was thinking same as @iani start with all fresh. Otherwise you may learn after burning quickly through the DI resins that new carbon blocks and membranes were needed further up stream from the DI.

Looks like the membranes may be hiding in the back:

Very cool wrasse!

What are the numbers?

Lack of food or something else taking up the same space would be my guesses. My astrina wax and wane in numbers and I wonder if my brittle stars are better at occupying the same space causing astrina numbers to decline. There must be pounds of brittles in my tank.

I am interested in hearing about the research as well!

Such a beautiful fish in whiter lighting.

I will need to check it out. Have not been since new ownership and over a year ish. Dublin is very close to me in Livermore.

Looking really good!

Haha yeah I don’t know if they clean the shells either. Include me in the @PjFish group buy!

Inverted Reef sells quarantined clean up crew. Keep in mind that the prices reflect their time and effort.

Man if fresh water sourced foods are undesirable that mean most mysis brands. I believe Hikari sources theirs from salty water.

Is there a way to determine which frozen foods are considered "lower quality"?

No sand. only kidding. I miss the sand animals but not the sand itself. Glad to hear you are ready to start up again!

Agree on the color but do really like the cord itself. A lot less rigid than others.

I don't see the tunze powerhead wire. I thought that was what @Kensington Reefer was looking at. Everything looks buttoned up so nice!

Frozen Hikari: spirunlina brine, mysis and jumbo mysis. Refrigerated Reef Nutrition: Real Ocean Eggs. Lots of various dry foods also. All these daily except ROE.
