Pink Hawaiian cucumber warning

[EmilyB]

The effects of the blendering of a pink hawaiian cucumber on a 230g tank -

I knew I should have taken it back when it climbed the glass. However, I had a very fine (maxijet screen) on the powerhead, and the cucumber was about 8" long, supposedly a lot like the black turd cuke.

There were two things that caught my eye when I first went to look at the tank today. A spot of pink on the powerhead intake and three missing anthias.

The first waterchange is done, and fresh carbon added. The Euro-reef is chugging.

All three bartletts anthias are dead and their bodies recovered. Obviously the most sensitive fish in the tank.

I'll be doing another large water change as soon as I can get enough water. Some things are sliming up and the anemone looks like hell.

All the rest of the fish appear fine. Thank God it wasn't a smaller tank.
