So last night at 7pm my hubby, a bunch of friends and I moved our 120 to our new address. While taking out the rock I knew my flasher wrasse was going to be in it and when I heard him flopping in the container I looked for him and couldn't find him. I checked one more time and found him after 10 minutes. After I put him in the tank his poor eyes are all popped out from lack of oxygen and he looks so bad. I don't think he will be alive when I get to the new place today. Also, one of my Hawaiian flames went carpet surfing but we got him before he was out for more than 20 sec. He was still soooo stressed. We didn't get done setting up the tank until 5:30 am. Today we get to move everything else. o_O

Moving tanks is a HUGE DEAL.... I usually take a whole day to move them when I have too. :( Sorry to hear about your troubles.

We lost him. :( the cuc is eating him. I think I will take him out so the water doesn't fowl. I don't see my Hawaiian flame male either. Everyone else is accounted for.
