Hey, is that your old house where you used to live in Saskatchewan?

That's too bad about the butterflies. I've heard more failures with that species than success. My one attempt also was a quick fail, he didn't survive the hazing from the established butterfly (in all fairness, it was less vicious hazing than what tangs do to each other or even fairy wrasses. They must stress out VERY easy. )

Too bad, if you were closer to Saskatoon you could totally capitalize on this sweet gem of a deal:

As for the butterflies, they didn't make it through QT. Had them in the previous 100gal and they were doing really well besides eating every type of coral or anemone that is. I decided I wanted to quarantine all new and existing livestock for 6 weeks prior to placing them in the new tank as I had seen occasional signs of ich and suspected the butterflies might even have gill flukes. Regardless the goal was to start fresh without any disease, unfortunately the butterflies didn't do well in quarantine while all other previously established fish seemed to do just fine and pulled through the process without issue. A couple new fish also didn't fair well so my new QT experience has not been great. As a result taking a break from fish for a while, going to stock up on coral in meantime and work on improving the quarantine tanks.
