I had the same issue with a standard naso. I just bought a blonde version who is a bit bigger so hopefully he is a bit harder.

Thank you!

Aww your welcome anytime my friend

@@BlueCarbonReefing your welcome anytime

I believe the one you are referring to is the yellow eye kole tang

Thank you so much! Follow me on IG as well. That is where I post most of my content right now.

@@BlueCarbonReefing You should do an update video for the KZfaq channel. Last one looks like 2020?

@TheirWorldAquatics I am going to actually.. a lot has changed.. more tanks, it's actually a farm now and I'm selling coral online for the last 3 years..

@@BlueCarbonReefing WOW! Outstanding.

You have great taste!

Thanks!

Nitrates are great. I couldn't get the sulfur reactor to go through enough flow to reduce them. I now actually dose nitrates to my system to keep them where I want then. Ultimately I grew a ton of chaeto and it knocked down the nitrates over the course of a few months

🙋‍♂️

Thanks. I'd be happy with his subscriber count.. lol

I would assume most accidents will happen when they are scared. I doubt that they will come after you with thier spines on purpose. They are used in defensive situations not offensive. Hand feed at your own risk.

Thank you!

It did not work great for me but that may have been my system or something it lacked. I could never turn up the flow high enough to make a dent into the nitrates at the time. It did Ultimately work but was not turning over enough water to bring the overall numbers down. My final solution was growing chaeto..

The Indian Ocean a d the red sea is mainly where they are found so I would say the Maldives is definitely part of that.

Good luck

It's a 400 gallon tank

Thanks!

The main return pump being used is a reeflo hammerhead gold hybrid.. I'm estimating the head height at about 16 feet before any turns or 90s affect it more

What part?

Thank you!

I've never kept one before unfortunately. They are not reef safe

We are about 90% dino free.. really only the sand bed in the display. Going to throw out the sand at this point

@@BlueCarbonReefing just out of curiosity what are your silicate numbers? Many people have said to adding silicates to your reef tank to encourage diatom growth to outcompete the Dinos. Well I did and my dinos went nuts. So I tried just the opposite to remove them. My TDS test say that I have high silicates in my tank. Even before I dosed. I have the worst city water of 540 TDS. So I tested after the rodi and I was getting a .25 of silicates after my ro. So I have added phosguard and gfo inline of all my other filters. So now I have zero phosphates coming out of my Ro. Dinos seem to be less then before. Just something to check. I've done two complete teardowns with all new rock and all new sand and all new water. Now it's almost been 3 years and they're still with me. I am not giving up.

Different strands of dinos will react differently. Do you know what strand you have?

@@BlueCarbonReefing Ostreopsis and uv does nothing. There in the walls,sand and the rock

I see more and more people in different posts having the same issues. I tried all the regiments I could read. I also tried all the bacterias, UV sterilizer, hydrogen peroxide, bubble scrubbing, Dino X, phytoplankton, increase temperature to 83°F, Vibrant, ICP test, adding silicates, don't do it they increased like wildfire. Dr Tim's regiment, 4 month black outs. And of course raise nitrates 10ppm and phosphates .9 What are they thriving off of?

Everyone is getting along just fine. The sailfin hasn't grown much over the last couple of years but still doing fine.

@@BlueCarbonReefing thats great to hear. Hope it stays that way look forward to your next video

Thank you

thank you!

If the 425xl is 88 gallons. Maybe temporarily. Probably not long term once it gets bigger.

You're very welcome

I am still here. I am on Instagram posting pictures and videos and I now sell coral online at bluecarbonreefing.com. I haven't made any KZfaq Content in a while but I need to start making some videos again.

I am very happy to hear that! You're welcome.

Try switching the food up. How big of a tank is it in? What other fish are in there?

@@BlueCarbonReefing Yaa tried ocean nutrition bhrine shrimp flakes...for the first time ever I saw him taking good in his mouth but ultimately spitting it out...The tank size is 18 inch L x 24 high x 12 depth like a column FOWLR tank

Other fishes include a juvenile maroon clown and am azure damsel

@@RahulRoy-bq2vs try some kind of frozen food, blood worms, mysis, some small with protein. Not every fish will take flakes or pellets right away. definitely need to train some fish. Good luck!!

Not in my opinion. As long as they have rockwork or some kind of structure to hide in for protection they will do just fine.

You're welcome. Thanks for watching 👀

Thank you!

One day it might be possible..

I know right

@@BlueCarbonReefing Sarcasm, what a wonderful reaction from a content creator

@@RaptureSniping I am assuming you are talking about the delivery person putting the box on its side.
