Paul, Wondering if some of the quarantine advice from this article has changed in your mind. Comments? https://reefs.com/magazine/local-collecting-in-the-tri-state-area-54/ Tom

For future reference, Take one of those plastic dishes with lids you get from chinese food (or similar tupperware) poke holes in it and you can float the shrimp in the Display for a few days. Saves the animal while protecting your coral. You'll sometimes see it done with pistol shrimp in LFSs.

Anything added from outside the tank in the last month? Wondering about pests or a new addition bothering them

Neither are problems then. I was thinking off spectrum old bulbs or chemical warfare, but sounds like neither is the case.

How old are the bulbs? Anything annoying the softies?

Three thoughts: 1. How are you testing parameters? Can you confirm them with someone else's test? Even a petco test (though i not sure how much faith i put in them) could let you know if what youre reading is accurate. Test kit could be off. 2. Where did the live rock and sand come from? Any chance it was contaminated? Perhaps heavy phosphates? 3. Though it wouldnt solve the firefish, how intense are your lights? Have they gone from an underpowered system at BRK to high intensity with your current? Can you dial back intensity at all?

I've been running an Evo 5 since september, has zoas (low-med price) and lps (war corals, favia, blastos, lepastrea and acans) doing quite well in it. I would not expect it to handle SPS well though.

I will be out of town that weekend. Sorry

Thanks, I'm knee deep in forum posts. Good search term for sure

Any idea of rate both submerged and being splashed? And what the dissolved components do to a reef?

Anyone with any experience? Specifically submerged parts. Toxicity? Part life? Other factors?

Cat wont bother me, provided he's not climbing my leg while im lifting the tank. Let me know if/when you would like help.
