Live Aquaria order arrives, I go to float the bags in my QT and see the temperature is at 93°! Heater failure... glad that happened before today. Fish will float in my frag tank for now...

Ugh... how does everything look?

Float some milks containers that have been cleaned with cold water and they should act like coolers?

Thankfully it was just an empty QT tank. Being only 10g I drained half and refilled with cool water to get the temp right.

Most fish look good except one cardinal will die. It was almost floating in the bag already...

Not too shabby, always sucks to lose any fish though. Get the camera out.

Two weeks of observation and treat for what I see/feel they need.

Another Live Aquaria order placed.

They better be ready to work too!

14 Ceriths
5 Mexican Turbos
6 Dwarf Blue Leg Hermits
4 Dwarf Red Leg Hermits
1 Emerald Crab
1/2 lb Red Gracilaria
1 Red Tuxedo Urchin
1 Blue Tuxedo Urchin

Yes...giving another shot with urchins... hopefully last more than 24hrs.

So LA wasn’t able to fill this order last week for whatever reason. I just reordered most of it.

I’ve also went a bit crazy and ordered some more fish

That’ll teach em. ;Hilarious

 

[Dsnakes]

Fish on the way...

2 more Royal Grammas. Going to try a trio, I think my tank is big enough if they end up not together they can claim their own territories

Trio of Pajama Cardinals
Pair of Bangaii Cardinals
3 more Stoplight Cardinals-will make 7 total

 

[Dsnakes]

Ugh Live Aquaria has the Sebae anemone I want in stock finally... but I refuse to pay for shipping. Do I start yet another QT tank and get a few more fish I want....

This order, if placed, would include-

Yellow Coris Wrasse
Starry Blenny
Firefish
Sebae Anemone (H. Malu)

 

[Dsnakes]

I ordered them

I’ve got a lot of fish to QT now. Hopefully the ones I have keep doing well and these new ones are healthy.

I’m currently moving a few sporadic Acans from low rocks so I can place my anemone when it arrives

 

[Dsnakes]

This will be my current stocking once I get the remaining fish through QT. I’m excited to finally have some life in the tank

Sailfin Tang
Hippo Tang
Dwarf Golden Moray Eel
Rainford Goby
Firefish
Lawnmower Blenny
Starry Blenny
Yellow Coris Wrasse
3 x Royal Gramma
2 x Black Photon Clownfish
7 x Red Stoplight Cardinalfish
2 x Bangaii Cardinalfish
3 x Pajama Cardinalfish

I would like to end up adding a Yellow Tang, Kole Tang, and pair of Red Mandarins as final additions.

 

[Dsnakes]

Refugium is getting started. I need to order an inexpensive light for it. The LED I have now is not sufficient.

Dragon’s Breath (the right clump arrived dead ;Dead) and Chaeto added. I picked most of the worms from the Chaeto. Looks so red, maybe fire and not regular bristle? @KJ

 

[KJ]

Regular bristleworm

 

[Dsnakes]

Whew. Thank you!

 

[KJ]

Whew. Thank you!

YW

Ordered one small emerald crab and received two.

Fish in QT.

Anemone - I took a few pictures of its foot before placing. It took hold of the glass bottom pretty quick where I placed it. I wore gloves because I’ve never handled any others than Rock Flowers.
