I had a left handed hermit that I hadn't seen in a month or two and he came out about a week ago sporting a MUCH LARGER shell and has clearly grown:

Well, a lot has happened since my last post.  My Yellow Tang turned into a monumental butthead towards my Coral Beauty and actually took a chunk out of the tip of it's lower fin and was starting to hit it with it's scalpel.  I gave it the boot.  I tried sourcing a Pyramid Butterflyfish and found one, but it died within 24 hours of reaching the LFS (suppliers fault as they delayed shipping).  After not being able to source another Pyramid, I pulled the trigger on a One Spot Foxface.  I also added a juvie Blue Star Leopard Wrasse:

Recently tried Flucanozole.  Take a look at the Coral Growth video above and then compare it below to see the effects.  The video below was after a single dose and letting it sit for a month with no water changes, then followed by a 20 gallon water change and waiting for a week.

Love the Melanurus and  the Lubbock's shouldn't be too hard to find. I love the fairy wrasses, just added a pintail and already had an orange back, both have lots of color and character.

The Lubbock's isn't hard to find.  My LFS seems to get them in every few weeks.  I am just hesitant to have one as my well established Melanurus already gives my Blue Star Leopard Wrasse a hard time. 

Anyways here is an overview and an update of my 90 gallon tank:
