So. Other than the bigger peppermint shrimp everything went in alive. As I was betting the peppermint the big guy did a flip and either stunned himself or died. He did move a leg afterwards but I added him to the tank (dead or stunned didn’t bother the puffer) and as soon as Puffy saw him he went right up to him and ate him. So he got a 3 dollar shrimp for dinner. My boyfriend thinks I’m evil adding live food but the Puffer is happy! I even think the Flamming Moe was trying to catch himself a live shrimp! If the wrasse wanted to eat shrimp he will have to go after the mysid shrimp which I’m sure he will. My mandarin may be even able to eat some if she catches one! I dumped probably half of the shrimp in my sump so not all of them can be eaten right away

So as I said I scratched my acrylic hex tank :’( but I picked up a glass one on Sunday. This Friday I will be cleaning it up! And then Saturday the fun begins! I will be disassembling my tank and getting the glass one up and running! I’m giving myself all day to do it. I need to make a little extra salt water this week and transfer it back into 5 gal jugs. Cuz you know I will probably need extra!

Ok. So new tank won’t go up for a few more weeks ;Drowning I got it all cleaned up and realized the seals don’t look so good (waaaAaaaaaaaaa) but with the peeling and the chunks missing it’s better safe than sorry right! Ok so the plan is to drop it off on Sunday. Guy said it take a day to prep. A day to reseal. Then total of three days drying. And then he water tests it for 3 days. So should get it back next Sunday.
which means it will be another week before after that before I set it up. At least that means I won’t have to worry about the seals bust and dumping all that water on the floor.

I lost the yellow octospawn. I’m guessing a bacterial thing. Made me so sad! But that other one is doing great! Too bad it’s not mine, it belongs to @footgal or does it lol
