Bad day........do you ever feel like when it rains...it pours?!....like you would have been better off...just hiding all day........ (if only I could!) Day starts out crappy with some personal stuff getting me down...then I come down to the tank to find a crispy fish on the floor, , see a couple fallen corals and go to pick them up knocking down two more in the process, fill the top up tank...and miss all over the floor, watch my Flame Angel "pick" at my brain coral which is already dieing...and now I spill skimmer crap on the carpet...ugh...think I will not look at the tank anymore today for fear something else might happen....

My luck with the Skunk Tilefish is 0 for 2! I won't try another one. Even with the cover the little bugger found a way out. Hope that the other two new tilefish stay put...they don't seem as jumpy but that could be wishful thinking on my part.

Sorry to hear about the rotten news Carmen...

I've worried a few times with a FULL skimmer cup about spilling on the carpet.. Typically wrap it in a "skimmer only" towel but even then worry about watching my step.. lol

I installed a valve in the skimmer cup, then drain it into a bucket before removel and cleaning.
