what is the YT eating in the LFS? maybe you can feed the same stuffs... i think is just a little stress, nothing to worry too much.

No bad remarks, it's nicer and cleaner than my tank lo!!

You jux need to add a few more cheap and hardy soft corals like finger leathers. U need some red also, some colourful fishes, like flame angel.

Take out your bio balls lah.

i can't believe you're even asking this question. your fish is trapped and going to die and you can still ask if you should rescue it? GO RESCUE IT.

how could you bear to watch a trapped fish suffer while you sit and think if you should do anything? its quite obvious don't you think?

at the same time, get rid of the bioballs, find a way to prevent fishes from getting trapped, and always rescue them!

you're really heartless. the poor fish trap there for 2 weeks and only now then you decide to do something about it. and your definition of do something is ask if you should rescue it? because of some bioballs in your way.

i'm sorry if i sound harsh but this is the epitome of bad reefing. i hope you don't keep this up. even if you dont like the fish, at least have the decency to save it first then decide on the course of action. and i don't mean ending its life.

please. i hope you understand that i'm not picking on you. but you should never do this again. and i hope you develop some common sense and compassion, otherwise, this hobby isnt for you. okay bro?

Totally agree with lemon, Go rescue it now.

[jackywongto]

just spend some time and remove the bioballs. get the fish out then put it back.

Should not really take that long anyway.
