I ended up with a melanurus wrasse.. hoping he will eat any pests that might make it into my tank...🤞 That thing should pick at anything........ whenever I put anything new into the tank mine circles it like a hawk.... 1 Quote Link to comment

Hes all cozy in the qt now.. one more fish and I can take down my old cube I've been using as a qt.. 3 Quote Link to comment
FISHnChix Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Well #### me... bought another kole tang and this son of a bitch died too after about a month ... I dunno if it’s something I’m doing or that my tank is to young but I think these fish are off my list seeing as I can’t keep them alive😢 besides that not to much to update tank is just cruising for now. Waiting for the weather to warm up so I can by some more corals... 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I hate losing fish,especially when it's one I really wanted. 2 Quote Link to comment

Ha yea it’s annoying when you do all the research and put in tons of effort (and cash!!) and you lose a fish or coral.. makes me want to take out a shotgun and blast the damn tank lol... oh well going to let the tank mature for a minute and maybe add some super hardy fish... 1 Quote Link to comment

Its more satisfying 3 Quote Link to comment

FISHnChix Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Well just realized the new tank is 6 months old now😎.. not much to update but I did get a new hammer coral and a blasto frag. One good thing is the coraline alagae is filling in nicely on the dry rock that I started with, and I have been able to keep it off the back glass! Any who figured I would do the "big" 5 month update lmao corals are a little pissed from the wc in the pics 👨🔧 2 Quote Link to comment

I got the doser dialed in better now , and went back to weekly wc. In my cube I could go months without a wc since I was dosing but I had the tank for a year and used live rock. At this point with using dry rock I think my tank needs the weekly wc🤷♂️...also I think my skimmer is running much better now too😊.. got to figure out the sweet spot for these kessils though.. weird bc I run the narrow version on the left side where I see better growth and the right side is a wide version but when I put coral on that side up higher things bleach even though they are set to the same levels.. 2 Quote Link to comment
