Anyone have any thoughts on this article.
It says the lack of polyp extension is ok.
I'm wondering if anyone has left their BF in their tank long enough to see if the SPS will survive.

That's an awesome butterfly. I love my burgess, but I don't quite recognize that one.. what is it?
Has anyone successfully kept ornamental clams with their "reef safe" butterflyfish? I'm hesitant to purchase one with my Muelleri, who I feed littleneck clam to. I don't want this addition to remind me of the time years ago when I put a cleaner shrimp in with my hawkfish.
What happened to your Muelleri?
That is a beautiful Mitratus
I bought some snails from a guy tearing his tank down and two days later my fish were looking bad, I'm not sure if it was velvet or just some nasty ich. Whatever it was copper wouldn't touch it. Finally after almost 3 months I beat it with quinine sulphate. By the end I lost probably 2/3 of my fish including my beloved muelleri. Probably the closest I've come to quitting the hobby in 12 years. Moral of the story, QT inverts too.
