Finally lowering, dang. Was at .41 at it's highest, held steady for 2 days and now finally seeing a drop.

Been 3 days with seachem phos guard, and 2 phos lowering foam pads (about a 6"x6" piece.)

Finally finished up these paintings. (yes digitally in photoshop, but still.) Going to do a set of towels, and stickers probably 4"x4", for sale at my Etsy shop. I can do shirts and other apparel too, but the cost goes up pretty dramatically, so i usually just do those for myself.

Whhhhaaaaa???!!!

I just did a water change and vac'd a small section of sand. It's been about 20mins and I notice someone struggling and being chased by a few fish, it's the flippin' Melanurus! I haven't seen her in 21 days, literally since the day I added her. Lookin' so rough, OMG, skinny, beat up.
 
So since the back aio sections are so huge and unused I've decided to put the Mel back there. Tons of pods since nothing eats them, I can add sand, started rinsing some now, it's really visible so I can monitor her there. There's already a yellow watchmen goby who got beat up in the display too.

Was it the 6line? I didn't see any aggression when I added the Mel, but I only got to observe her for a few hours and she's been hiding since. And there's the flame hawk who is just a grumpy donkey.

Could be both. And thankfully you found her. Looks like she was struggling hanging on a thread.
Oh she looks bad, belly sunken, fins shredded, no tail left, abrasions on her side.

Not scared of me looking at her though, breathing normal-ish.
 
Ate a few pods and torpedoed into the sand. First time actually seeing that. It was fast!
I love watching my Leuco bury itself (is it an it if it's transitioning? Not a male yet, not a female anymore...)
 
Oh no! Poor mellie vanellie (just thought of that. I think I'll get a pair myself now so I can name them). Hope she pulls through!
I don't want to tell you to stop thinking but.... Please stop thinking.

My dusky creates a crazy sand storm in the tank every time since he's so stinkin big.

Glad you found the Mel!
