Hoonie778 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Touchy subject ... just realized i didn't post up my experience. sorry. The next day after adding Pearl (my chromis) she did a death fall. I saw her on her side breathing heavily, at which time i turned the flow in the tank way down. I left her there for a few minutes to find out what to do, when i came back she was gone. So yea.. i killed my first fish and am not happy about it. Not sure why she died, mabey thats why i got her for $1.75. Not sure when im going to have the confidence to add another fish to my tank. That sucks If the water parameters were all good, then I bet it was just a sickly little chromis. Poo. Link to comment
NanoReefNovice Posted April 28, 2009 Author Share Posted April 28, 2009 That sucks If the water parameters were all good, then I bet it was just a sickly little chromis. Poo. Water perams were all good and stable, now i feel like a jackass for buying my departed sickly friend. Link to comment

NanoReefNovice Posted April 28, 2009 Author Share Posted April 28, 2009 Looks like a small brittle star hitched in on my zoa rock. Ill try and get a good photo... Link to comment
Paleoreef103 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Add a fish. It'll be fine. If your zoas are opening up and your parameters are fine a fish will do fine as well. NC24 pride. Link to comment

NanoReefNovice Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 Caught a pic of a bristle star hitcher. There are a least two more ive seen, thinking they all hitched in on the zoa rock. That rock also has a few other hitchers including couple feather dusters in a horrible spot to take a photo of. Link to comment
