    Funny Tenuis have always been the hardiest easy to please acro for me. I don’t do anything expect 2 part with part C and water changes and grew a 12” Orange passion just fine. Different strokes. Great advice about white bugs though! Many chop shops out their naming fancy Tenuis they cooked for a few months. Strangely they never touched Tenuis for me, only smoothies and Tyree ultimate stag.

    The stuff you have look great. Moonshine is the way to go

    Just a heads up, when you dose interceptor you can get a dino’s outbreak due to all the pods dying. Have that UV ready

      100% usually you’ll have small amount of dino pop up and some algae start to come up due to the loss of pods

    How do you know if you have em? Lack of color and extension can be a million different things.

    Why don’t you use captiv8 line? You can mix everything together and use 1 dosing pump. I only use the MT and colors are crazy.

      that’s why it’s important to not buy from untrusted vendors. or if you do to have a very intense QT process, even lps and soft corals have pests that can survive initial dips.
