DD labels the (Latin) species under the generic description however. If you have the original link to the page you purchased it from you can still...
It's a sponge. Peel it off if it's agitating them, otherwise leave it be. :)
I've seen a pair last a long time in a 265 before. Vortechs and all.
Doesn't look half bad. Nice work. :)
From what I can see, appears to be a bubble coral (euphyllia). You'll probably want to move it to the sand bed, or very low in the tank.
Probably not. But then I question; why buy XMLs?
Yes; this one: Mean Well HLG-185-42B dimmable Driver - Rapid LED And that's something I'd recommend for you, or the ELN-60-27(X) which can do 2.4A....
Wrasse guide! Fine, I'll quote myself! ;)
They won't kill each other. I would have liked to have seen you use an acclimation box for a few days however. ;) SnooknRedz, see the link in my...
Alk 9-12 concerns me a bit. Are you varying it that much in the span of a few days, or do you just try to maintain it somewhere in that range? Alk...

Neither of those are really big enough, unless you're planning for an extremely light bio-load. You really want to look for something rated for...
Indeed.
Yeah, that and the pattern of the stripes on the body makes me lean towards McCoskers as well. Was just trying to make the point it's not a...
Yes x4 They're the same Chinese light which is rebranded and sold by so many. They'll work fine on a softy tank. May support some LPS. Won't work...
Not necessarily. Here's how close they can look: Paracheilinus McCoskeri [IMG] Paracheilinus Carpenteri [IMG]
Try an acclimation box for 2-3 days. There's a link in my wrasse guide (see signature) just before the species list.
Correct, the favia will have some good sweepers on it; the lobo will have much shorter ones. It'll work if the favia is downstream :) Otherwise......
First, all of the advice given in this thread is valid for the OP; I don't want to take away from that. However, for future readers, there is one...
Separate names with a comma.
