HELP!!!!!!!!

[Gilbert]

Okay so my star polyps have been sitting in my tank for a little over a week, and I have yet to see it come out of its purple bulbs. Should I be worried? How much longer will it take for it to show?

Can you post some pictures so we can see the placement of the corals?

 

 

[Gilbert]

So just checked my star polyps and some of them started to poke out a little bit, so I'm pretty happy!

[Coral Hind]

That is a good sign.

What fish do you have in the tank?

[Gilbert]

diamond goby

yellow tail damsel

2 blue damsels

clarkii clownfish

foxface fish

You should add a tang to help eat some of the algae in the tank.

The foxface eats a good bit of that algae, but I think I might save up my money for a purple tang/any suggestions? I also just added a pair of True perculas in the tank an hour ago, they're both about one inch, I decided to just go my LFS and just picked up 2 out of the 5 true percs in the tank. So far my clarkii is not happy and chasing them around everywhere. I've tried for the past 45mins now to try and get my clarkii out, and put her in my sump possible sell her. Any suggestions on what is the easiest way to get a fish out of my tank?

[Coral Hind]

I have good luck catching fish when the lights are out and their vision isn't as good.

[Gilbert]

That sounds like a great idea, lets see if I can get that sucker tonight.

You could also try a trap if trying with the lights out doesnt work. They are expensive, so you may want to try and borrow one.
