Well my poor little girl died this AM, it really hurts my heart, she wasn't that little but you know what I mean.:rolleyes::( Will wait till I get the new tank before I get anymore, have to force myself to stay away from the lfs and Internet , lol. I kind of think my emerald crab got ahold of her face, think I might take him back.
Sorry for your loss!

Oh nooooo, I'm sorry :( I'm hugging you over the Internet, I know how bad it sucks to lose a fishy baby. I would be devastated :( I recently had to remove an emerald crab as well because I saw it eating my sps polyps. I think if they're not feeding CONSTANTLY they'll eat what they can get their hands on.

You know that can be a total different game plan ;) playing with the KH, GH, AA, No3, K and Po4 :eek:
Will be looking forwards to your Pics.
Sorry about your Sexy shrimp but all she was doing maybe was eating the slime coat that SPS develop when the get handled of it.

Yeah that's what I was thinking too so I just kept an eye on her but she was ALWAYS amongst the acros and then I noticed little spots of skin missing in random spots (not aefw bites either). I like her a lot but I like my sps a lot better LOL.

I've been keeping my parameters stable at...

Cal: 420 ppm
Alk: 8.1 to 8.3 dKh
Mag: 1325 ppm
Temp: 79
Salinity: 1.026
Nitrate: 2.5 ppm
Phos: hate Phos tests and don't trust them at all, but I am saving up for a hanna
