    Thanks, I really lucked out, I have only seen four Lineatus in stores, and one was a nfs display tank fish. It's set on nutrient export mode, I like it because it seems to go through all the different modes, it has the random quick changing effects of reef crest, slows way down just like the lagoon mode, and then it will have a standing wave. It is great for getting detruis suspended in the water column.

    I might have to get rid of my smaller morphing male flame wrasse, tonight I had some real aggressive behavior. It's the smaller male that picks fights, and he is losing. I saw scales come off as the larger male would retaliate and charge the other.

    And the Linneatus is a little freaked by the flame's aggressiveness, although he isn't being attacked.

    And I noticed after two months, the wild enchinata is finally showing PE during the day

    Thanks Corailline,

    Yeah the enchinatas are definitely picky about alk swings, they burn easy. I'm trying a True Ice Fire Enchinata, and am happy it's keeping it's color

    BTowned, I simply love your tank. One of the simplest, yet most beautiful tanks I've seen. Plus, you take wonderful pictures. Inspiration for me someday...

    Quick Q, you mention dipping for 5 hours? With what? I use a reef dip for 10-12 minutes. Advantages to your method?

    Thanks Sacul, When I dip for 5+ hours its only for Acroporas. First I dip with Tropic Marin Pro Coral Cure, its for flatworms, and I dip for 10+ minutes and shake, then blow off the coral with a turkey baster. I then take the coral, and dip it for 5-7 hours in interceptor, for the red bugs.
