I found out what is going after my acros.

Dusky Damsel!!!!! Now to try and catch it without ripping the tank apart.

Thinking straw with a needle to blow dart the terd. He has killed over 2k in colonies just this week.

So I found out what’s wrong with my back yall. I have a bulging disk and the mri shows a lot of soft tissue so muscle damage due to my back being perfectly straight. I start psychical therapy next Tuesday and will have it 3-4 times a week for a few months they are thinking. If we don’t see progress we will look into other fixes such as surgery.

In 2 hours I watched it do this. Was leading a C level call and could not intervene.

Moved the coral to the sand and tried to lure him into a trap. That was a no go lol.

There is a very large zip lock in the tank now, that coral in it, and some fishing line tied to it. I am about 4 feet away with line in my hand. We will see what happens.

Sad thing is, I like that fish. Very active and has been well behaved for over a year. Just the past 2 weeks acros have been stripped clean. He isn’t starving for food. The tank is fed every 3-4 hours with as much as the fish will eat in 5 minutes.

If he isn’t caught by Thursday.....

Game over. He will be thrown in a pan with lemon pepper and butter. Damsel tastes like bluegill. At 6” he is good eating size.

I think you need a bang stick for a damsel ;)
Might not have a function tank after but it will be ok!

Recipe of the day...Sprite, cran-grape juice, dehydrated cranberries. Make ice cubes from the juice and berries, add to Sprite. You can also add Moonshine or Vodka. The drink is called a Turkey Tickler.

 

[Katrina71]

Btw, dried cranberries in Sprite will dance around in the glass of you don't have time to make ice cubes.

Please understand my absence from here. I have had a very difficult time focusing while reading. The meds are helping, so I should be back to "normal" soon. I miss y'all.

I noticed yesterday the baby nem has gotten huge. I'm sure she'll appreciate room to stretch out in the Miracle.
