Re: Poll on ocellaris clownfish
I voted yes after seeing healthy clowns in 10gal nano's. However, personally, I'd want at least 20gals for mine, ideally 30gal. I did have to temporarily put one in a 17gal due to aggression issues - she was fine, but much happier back in the 55gal.

Re: A discussion about new fish
She's taking food just fine, I can see her eating. Nice and plump too, and she's already coming up to the glass at feeding time, which is great to see.

Re: Two months and my hammer coral won't inflate
If your salinity is 1.023, I'd be willing to bet that your calc, alk, and mag levels are all low. Most salt mixes are formulated at 35 ppt, so running at 31 ppt is going to result in a 12% drop across the board. This isn't necessarily a coral killer, but it will stunt growth and potentially impact ...

Re: Two months and my hammer coral won't inflate
Thanks for the insight, I had no idea Hammers were more sensitive like that. I'll get to the bottom of it, that piece of coral is definitely one of my favorites.

Re: Two months and my hammer coral won't inflate
A few things to consider:
Is your Hammer coral getting enough light? I've found mine does best in the mid to top section of the tank. What's your ALK level - I'm curious if that might be a factor. And have you changed the flow in that area recently? Too much flow can be a real issue for these ...

Two months and my hammer coral won't inflate
So here's what's been going on with my Hammer coral:
I had to temporarily relocate it to my QT about two months ago, and while it was there, a rock fell on it - no visible damage, but it definitely wasn't happy about it. Since then, it's been semi retracted and refuses to inflate.
The weird thing ...
