Sorry to hear that. Usually we get power outages here in Langley with any storm, but we escaped this time.

Was it the temp drop in your tank that did in your wrasses? How much did it drop in that time period?

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

The MIA wrasses may be hiding in the rocks & the leopard wrasse is probably hidden in the sand. At least I hope so.

Default lost fishes

Anthony could be right, wrasses are know to hide for days
Especially when they're stressed out. Couple weeks back
We had a power outage in out area(57th-marine dr of fraser)
I received a phone call hours later. When I got home I found
Disaster.I lost so much fish that I almost post my set up for sale.
List:
Sohal
Flame angel
Bicolor angel
4 dispar anthias
2 blennies
2 chromis
Ocellaris clown
Banana wrasse
And maybe more to come as my set up still in a bad shapeo.

Sad to hear there were losses yesterday, i wasnt worried about my tank since i have no fish currently, but was hoping i might save somebody else some heartbreak.

I live in Richmond as well, and it looked like a war zone when i got home last night. both my wooden gates had been torn off the hinges and there was debris everywhere.

yes.. the 2 wrasse actually get along okay.. leopard does get pick on from time to time. but, after the initial aggression from the six line in the first week, six line stops picking on leopard. I guess having a leopard that eats prepare food does help.

I am hoping most of fish are just in the hiding. I am going to do a head count when I get home today.

temp drop to 74 or so, pH was probably about 7.5 before I got the vortech and air pump online before the power comes back.

a line from Halo "No Spartan is kill in action, they are just missing in action."

I guess until I see the body they are still alive somewhere.
