Long time never update, busy with exam and after exam when to perth for my grad trip. 2 weeks after i return the tank is in a mess, zoa not open and the tank is full of algae. Changed 10% of the water and start to do some cleaning up. So far no fish or coral were killed during my trip. These are the update. :yahoo:

Prob nudis eggs hatched. Either remove them and redip or just get a yellow or six line wrasse.

But try not to feed the yellow wrasse so much.

They may get lazy and wait for your food instead of clearing the nudis.

I suspect my splendid clear nudis too... but cannot be sure....

Leopard will eat flatworm, maybe nudi too...
