Oh, that would be a great idea, then we can bask in the glow of your tank

I've got my head around adding a webcam...but it would be only visible to me. Right now, making the camera visible to everyone is beyond my understanding. I'll try.

Haven't seen much on the new tank lately. How are things progressing?

Woke up this morning to find the Leopard wrasse in serious trouble. On his side, breathing heavily. He only lasted about 2 hours before he died.

One of those things, I suppose. All the other fish seem quite healthy and happy. He was completely fine when the lights went off the night before.

He is the first fish to die in the new tank...and it wasn't the one that I expected. I have a Pacific Blue Tang that came in a couple of days ago as a gift. He looks terrible and hasn't eaten since his arrival. I've done everything I can, but I'm positive that he isn't going to make it.

The Pacific Blue is the 2nd fish to arrive in the tank looking like skin covering bones. Both came from the best shop in town, but there really should be a "If you think you can save it...discount". The other skinny fish is going to survive and once she fills out a bit, I'll announce her on this site with her own photo.

Hi Brad

It is amazing just how fragile the life forms from the worlds oceans are. They do not give you much of a chance to save their lives. They are here today gone tomorrow. A coral can RTN from top to bottom in 12 hours while the coral next to it is as happy as the days it stood in waters of Fiji.

Today, I lost my 2nd fish. It was the small goby that hitchiked in with the live rock. He was always an extremely fat, healthy fish. Today, he just didn't report for dinner.

No body has been found yet, and likely never will.

I never did get a good picture of him. It seemed like there was always tomorrow...sigh.

Same thing with my fire goby(except he wasn't a hitchhiker) no body, didn't come to eat, not out side the tank nor in the sump. Mind you gobies can go missing for months on end and then eventually come out.
