Sadly, I am fairly certain my exquisite firefish Fuego has passed. He hasn't been leaving his cave for months. At first, he would stick his head out to gobble food floating by. Then he wouldn't come out at all and I'd have to turn off all the pumps and target feed him directly in his cave. He was getting thinner. He also became inefficient at eating. If I didn't get a pellet right into his mouth, he'd miss it completely. Last Thurs, I fed him and he decided to come out of his cave and swim around the perimeter of the tank. Unfortunately, he seemed to be swimming rather aimlessly. I got the impression he wasn't going to be around much longer and took a few last photos. Haven't seen him since. I take it he might have been having an age-related decline. Beautiful fish and my first office fish. Ciao Fuego

Made 10 more gal of saltwater today, so up to 40 now. Should be halfway to 100 tomorrow!

I also managed to make more AFR and clean the glass!

Sadly, no progress today. Flat tire and ended up not going into the office. Will try to get in over the weekend for some maintenance!
Wish that's all I had. After about 4 to 5 inches of rain yesterday, My ford expedition decided to start its self, turn off, run the a/c fan and keep the accessory power on with dash light blinking. I pulled the battery which was as dead as you can get and had it replaced free of charge due to warranty. The fun starts there, turns out my windshield was leaking and the water ran into my interior fuse block via interior trim , Still working on getting the electrical component's dried out

Post that to do list on any non-reefing related forum and you are getting institutionalized.

I ordered a laser to cook aiptasia. No idea if it will actually help control the outbreak. Should be fun, though!
Fun will be all its worth... Really, if one cell exist, it can grow a new one... I am thinking if my Maroon can protect my LTA, I might get a raccoon butterfly...
