Picked up a baby clown that a LFS is breeding, sooooo tiny.
(Next to the asterina on the glass in 1st pic).
Had him for about 3 weeks.

Can't get a good pic of the little guy yet.

6 weeks away from home. I guess this is what ULM means.

We had some very personal issues come up and haven't been home since we got back from vacation, the tank and corals are trashed. Nothing I cant get back under control, but just breaks my heart.

I have some algaes I've never encountered before, so at least It'll be a good experience. Swapped out rodi filters and going to do a minor reboot.

Tank is coming down.

A union blew, don't know how. Unfortunately my return pump was on a battery back up a nd kept pumping water. Ato kept filling it. Approximately 40 gallons went to my neighbor ceiling that I just replaced. Wife said no more, but I can keep my AIO nanos.

This really sucks.

Wow! Sorry about your loss JPaul.

I've never seen a union do that before.

I'm so sorry. I also live in an upper floor NYC apartment and that is my nightmare.

Again, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Oh, wow! I was just re-reading this whole thread and this was not the ending I was expecting. So sorry that happened. The aquascape and quality of this build was really first rate. I have never seen a union do that either. Just rotten luck.
