I feel for you, we went through the same issue with our filefish but at least he was easy to catch.

Wow that sounds like it was a PITA to try to catch him. I got lucky with my filefish and was able to catch him fairly easily in my 230g

I'm happy for you two lol. That ordeal shaved years off my life! So Wes, yours was trying to eat the clam and the clam caught it? Gentler passing than mine experienced...

What a pain, Brett. I don't know if my neck could handle what you went through, unless you went swimming

Guess I've been letting the thread slide huh? I was busy letting the tank slide too lol. I just cracked open the last bucket of salt of the original 10 I bought. I've been doing 50g water changes every 2 weeks instead of weekly for about 2 months now to keep costs down some. I haven't tested my levels in over a month but plan to tomorrow My TDS has been 1 from the DI for a while now and I'm even cool with that. I'm letting'er coast =)

I did however beat my hair algae problem. The valonia has taken off since and even though I'm slowly making process on the anularis algae it's still rampant (and sucking my calcium to boot ).

You'll notice I'm rockin the black background again... lovin' it too I might add. The blue looked more natural and endless and the black did make the tank look 3 feet deep (like it is I guess) but that was the best $20 I ever spent on bedding. I hung 2 king-sized black sheets on the fishroom wall. Very low VOCs =)







































And one portrait shot from inside the fishroom (my favorite view).
