And so it begins again

you have a raja rampage frag??? sweet. Tried to get that from WWC this past weekend and they have none at the moment

Stopped in at WWC on July 2nd and haven't been the same since. Gonna get me a piece of that raja one way or another.

Looking good! The space invader pectina (sp?) they have in Caspers tank at WWC is mind blowing as well!

Would it be possible to drop by and check out your tank sometime?

Yes I have one. I'm afraid the tank isn't much to look at at the moment. Unfortunately I have had several fish die in the last few days and several others are affected as well. I just noticed a couple of my SPS are receding a bit. Going to do a large water change tomorrow and hope that stabilizes things.

Sorry to hear that. What happened to the fish?

ich/fungus

Lost kole tang, flame angel, carpenter's wrasse, mandarin and orchid dotty back so far. Only a few left and I hope they make it but not too confident at this point.

Thanks Brandon, just gotta ride it out at this point. Did a large water change yesterday and that seems to have helped. Will do another large one on Wednesday.

Hope you can get it going right again.

Well I got the tank on the up and up again with a series of water changes. Seriously thinking I am going to take it down though. Seemed like a good idea a year ago but I just don't have the time to keep it like it should be kept.

bknapp · Oct 31, 2016

Sorry to hear that, hope all is well

fishdoc11 · Oct 31, 2016

All is really good. Just lots of other things going on taking my time.

bknapp · Oct 31, 2016

Completely understandable

Not a bad thing, just very busy with lots of other good things in life right now. Need to not have a reef tank to worry about for a while.

Just keep it running and do the bare minimum until you have time for it again.

I have to do it right or not do it. No in between. Part of the reason the tank was suffering a few weeks ago was that I had been neglecting water changes etc... I am taking it down because we are going to remodel the house so I would have to move it twice and I'm not doing that

I've already been looking at planted tanks for after I'm done

So what's the verdict Chris? Did you break it down or keep it up?

I'm going to start posting things for sale soon and try to start getting rid of stuff after the first of the year. Gonna try and get some good pics up sooner than later.

Doing a remodel upstairs and will need to have it down by the time they redo the floors where it is downstairs a couple of months later.

Keep everything you can store. You know you will be back!!
