I have a pair of bangii cardnials a F.Perc, a trio of chromis, 9 Bartlett Anthias a mystery wrasse, and a long fin goby shrimp pair. I cant seem to get my camera to work, i'm hoping that it is just the batteries so I ordered new rechargable monster ones. Once I get them and if they work ill have new pics. As of now my KZ is pulling out BLACK tar. And the ATB is producing no skimate in the cup. All else is well
