Been tough on the Cline Reef lately. Starry eyed blenny took up residence in one of our overflows(which tragically also harbors the outlet from the kalk reactor) despite the efforts I made to keep livestock out. It is probably about 10-13 gallons in volume and is always moving quite nice, not sure what happened. Our Atlantic Blue Tang (Juv) has been very agressive towards the Hippo we got from Dennis for about a month. Sure nuff, white spots showed up on the Chevron, Hippo, and Atlantic Blue. Fortunately, the Naso and the Yellow seem unaffected. The spots have subsided on all but the At Blue(ironic huh) WC's, UV, Kent garlic soak, and lots of food must help. Atlantic Blue scheduled for removal and isolated in his own little tank for now.It has been weird lately. Light ballast problems(double 250 watt, Hqi issues), Ich, Blenny suicide, what's next? Anyway, BRING IT on. This aint our first reefventure!

RIP Atl Blue, didnt make the treatment.I used a formalin/ malachite green product. (1/2 to 3/4 dose to be cautious, didn't matter) Everyone else is doing fine. Had him for 3 years.

Damnit Mike, that sucks man... I just got over treating my Hippo and I can safely attest that Hypo Treatment works, I kept that sucker in a QT at 1.009 and after a couple of months he is now back in the DT. Sorry for your loss, buddy.
