    are to not. As long as you don't do anything stupid. Which would include, but not be limited to:


    • Copper, even in any trace amount at all
    • Not-tightly-fitting lid
    • No protein skimmer
    • Not having enough hiding places
    • Improper diet
    • Putting anything else in the the tank besides food
    • The yuje: adding livestock to early ect.
    • Not doing enough research/buying on impulse

    Do you have any LR or place to hide? If I was to do it again I think I would put some PVC tunnels in the sand.

    Go for it.

    I would have just bought the one that he held for you. You got there first, and actually were there to pick it up first as well.

    Maybe this is a blessing in disguise?
