Scurvy’s Mad Wrasse 110

[Fudsey]

Oh yeah, Forgot to update that didn’t I? He died more or less the moment I dipped it. Was really already gone but the remaining tissue dumped at that point

Bummer, I'm sorry to hear

Bummer, I'm sorry to hear

Will try again down the road... I found my salinity was way out of line at 1.020 and suspect this was my issue. Changed salt brands from Red Sea Blue to Tropic Marin Pro but never checked my fresh mix. Simply continued my RedSea measurements. I should know better!!

Sorry to hear about the trachy.

@Fudsey I may have bought something requiring an Anemone.... Thinking one of yours might be just what the Dr ordered How they doing? Are you around at all this weekend?

 

[Fudsey]

They still are closed up. Dinos are doing a number on them. I try and feed them a mysis every couple days but I don't know... I am around this weekend but not sure how it would go.

I have to say, after going through 6 pages to catch up I everything seems to be going well! I've turned notifications on and off on this thread a million times and still don't get the alerts. Oh well, keep the updates coming! I'll be back!

Not sure on how they’d fare or how to remove one? Ive got some experience as a contortionist Nem getter if thats the worry, LoL. In all seriousness though It can wait. I have something for them in the short term but Im not sure I want it in the 110 long term. Its green. Theres no avoiding green but im trying to limit it.

Will try to remember to tag you if anything exciting happens Like New England weather just wait 30 minutes and it can all go to hell!!

Just dropped the two Saphire Damsels in and re-introduced the KwaZulu Fairy that was getting abused by the Blue Throat. The Blue Damsels are a nice contrast and break up the orange and red in a lot of the wrasse.

That gets us to 10 on the fish count and free’s up the 40 to take in tomorrows guests plus the last 2 fish in a holding tub. The Yellow Tang and Red Mandarin. The Blue Throats going to the LFS tomorrow or Friday. @Fudsey I’m not sure I’d feel good about handing him off to anyone I know or I would have offered. He’s a terror... A Beautiful, Flashing Terror

 

[Fudsey]

I'll send you a pic of them, they don't look good at all....

 

[Fudsey]

I take that back, 2 look ok 2 don't The one my crab is in and another look ok just really closed up the other 2 I doubt will make it.

@Scurvy nice choice on the sapphire damsel. My local LFS over the summer turned me on to them. I would like to do 3 or maybe 2

Also why no melanurus wrasse

 

[Fudsey]

He's in my tank

I wasn't sure how he'd fare without the sand bed and was debating bringing him into the LFS when Fudsey found a bristleworm population he wanted to thin out in his tank so he went to live in the country

 

[Fudsey]

He's doing great too. Can't say he put much of a dent in the bristle worms, but he's fat and happy. He gets along with everyone and there really is no aggression in my tank. The 2 Spot and the Foxface will flash at each other on occasion but no contact and usually they are in close proximity to each other. The male frostbite and the Melanurus chum around with them as well.... Kinda funny watching them all in one corner sometimes.

Funny how they gather...I think everyones fish do that. Mine at a certain time each evening seem to all wind up in one corner having a little party. @NY_Caveman This must be when they meet and discuss the days Human2Human threads.

Your telling me! That was two x-mass giftcards that went up in smoke

That put a knot in my stomach. I actually gasped out loud. I'm so sorry!
