Sorry to hear about the bugs John hope you have gotten rid of them. As for colors I believe you are right besides steady alk and cal numbers I believe lighting and higher nutrient levels are key and what better way to bring up the nutrients then with beautifully colored fish
I used to feel that keeping low numbers meant healthy coral and I was dead wrong. Feeding your tank and Nutrient export I believe Are what to strive for. Corals gotta eat!
As for the ridiculous mark up on fish, I don't see any way around this I guess there is a crazy markup set to cover loses I would hate to see how many fish die from collection, storage and transport before they reach our tanks
Bugs are gone. They are an easy one to get rid of so worries there.
Yeah I'm going to have to bit the bullet and pic up a few fish. Luckily I'm not the kind that has to have expensive fish. I do want a Regal though so I guess he can finish off the zoas that haven't shrunk down to nothing yet
