Good save! Glad you got him in time. I've had a few triggers jump out on me before, unfortunately I didn't find them in time.

Stupid ass! When I fed the fish this morning he damn near did it again! His gluttony will do him in yet: So eager for the food he jumped out of the water, bounced off the euro-bracing and fell back into the water. Soaked me and scared the $hit out of his tankmates.

Damn! He got lucky last time you were there to save his piggy azz::mrgreen:

Mine wasn't so lucky.. He died overnight in the rocks and I had to tear the rock work apart to get him out.. Damn fish!

:cry: Sorry to hear this Shelley.

PICKLED BRITTLE STARS

Cleaned a couple of powerheads this morning in a vinegar bath. I'm used to seeing a few mini-brittle stars in there but 32 of them! WTF do they do in there anyway? :noidea:

Wow
I guess they get an easy meal in there

Hey! It's been a while since I posted anything on the tank. (have been very busy with this & that)
Not much has changed, except for the fact that I had to treat a red flatworm infestation yesterday. I siphoned out as many as I could and then used a half dose of Salifert Flatworm Exit. Suckers were dying within 15 minutes. There was easily 5x more of them than I thought. I scooped out literally thousands of dead ones that were swirling around in the water column. Via a Fluval 405, and 2x TLF reactors and 1x BRS reactor I ran about 5 lbs. of carbon. Even with this much carbon the corals and Nem showed distress almost immediately. Pretty scary there for awhile! It wasn't until early evening that some of them started to open up again. Everything looks ok this morning. I've never had to treat for flatworms before, should I leave the carbon running for a bit longer?

I would change some of the carbon and let it run for longer.

Ha! I just changed half of it 10 mins ago.

Atta boy!
