Following my interaction with a couple people in others posts, I was wondering what peoples whoops moments were. What is everyones biggest tank disaster? Whether it was a nuisance fish, poor research, impulse buy, or equipment? I believe in knowledge, so no disaster is to big or to small. It will teach someone else and provide a little fish humor at the same time.
I will start it off, I decided to get blue damsels. I had to remove all my rock to catch them and put them in my wife 14 gallon. They ticked off the clowns in there. Their was four, but the clownfish killed and ate two of them. If that was not bad enough, I saw a great deal on a few wrasse i had been eyeballing at my LFS. I brought them home and they all hid from the blue sided fairy wrasse. Had to tear my tank apart to catch him and take him back to the LFS when he ate $60 in shrimp.
