Nuvo 15 Fusion -First Reef Tank

Seems the amiphods in my tank are finding their home on the heads of one my zoas. I gave the infested zoa a hydrogen peroxide dip and a ton of these guys came out. Going to look into a fish to handle these guys....with my tank size would a 4 or 6 line or possum wrasse work?

Four and Six Line Wrasses are generally recommended for tanks 30 gallons and larger. If you have that many pods, have you thought about a Scooter Blenny or Mandarin? As long as you can maintain/replenish the pod population, you should be good with either of those.

Darn on the wrasses ....another exucse for upgrade lol?Id love a scooter or mandarin but will their small mouths be able to eat the larger amphipods ? I have a ton of smaller copepods in the system so not worried about them eating but do wonder if they will be able to help with the bigger guys .

@Paul B Has Mandarins and he harvests amphipods from the ocean to feed his fish. I assume his Mandarins eat the amphipods.

I'll give a Ruby Dragonet a shot ! Always wanted one anyways haha .

Off-topic: I made a thicker than usual Benereef slurry and the acans / button scoly had a crazy response

We were sold this coral as a "Hammer" but the more im looking at this thing the more im wondering if it was misidentified ? What's throwing me off is the branching of some polyps and the not overly hammer shape of the polyps .....frammer maybe?
