    I do have increased flow
    And they were fine befor that..??
    Put the flow back like it was..

    Your Cal needs to be around 440..

    You can have one fire fish.. I also belive they are jumpers..


    Good Luck, Larry

    how long have you had the epithyllia? is it in direct flow? if so how much they are not too fond of this, is there any brown jelly present? are there any polyps present?

    as for the firefish as menttioned they are jumpers and i personally like to keep a pair.. :)
