Have you tested your WC water for Nitrates BEFORE doing a waterchange? Might want to try that... Lance had a similar Nitrate issue and it was because his WC water already have a 20ppm Nitrate count

Thanks Josh I will have to check the W/C water.

No, I don't even think it's worth trying the babysitting route...too far gone.

Caught my beloved Flame Angel and have decided to rehome her. Seeing her eat my brain bit by bit everyday is painful...especially if she decides to move onto some healthy LPS...

Made a Bottle Trap and put the brain in it...10 minutes later CAUGHT!!!
Thought I'd post some pics incase anyone wants to know how to make the bottle trap...super cheap, easy, and effective! (Didn't even have to use food with her...)

You guys should trade. OH wait, Josh wants a potters, nevermind. You know, I have learned over the past few days that my potters is the most laid back angel I've never had. But please don't hold me to that in case you get a potters that eats the rest of your LPS

Man, my 150g was too small for two pygmies. Tried the potters in there with the flame.. ya, that wasn't pretty! Good thing the potters practically jumped into the net to get out of that tank
