    It's been a year since I had bought a new fish and I really had my heart on getting a hippo tang but none of the stores around here could get me one big enough. Had to get one close to the size of my yellow tang. Then I came across this guy. So I guess you can say I settled. Will have to wait till we upgrade again to get a hippo:)

    Here is a question I hope someone can answer, my chili leather has not opened up for the last week and as looked at it a little closer it is starting to become caked or encrusted with coraline. How would I go about getting it off of the leather?

    can you get a picture up Ishy

    it may not be coraline, but many leather corals get what looks to be a hard coating over them just before they shed skin
    also cyno may appear around the stalk at this time which being a red colour on a dark background could also look like coralline

    Here are a couple of pics. It's pretty purple, its not just on the base but actually covering it. If you need a closer pic let me know.

    Today Rob decided to get a little adventurous and fragged off both the baby toadstools we had that were attached to "mamma".
