Me it was a 5" crazy red and bright green tip forest fire red digi colony. I didn't test a batch of new water I made (from the tap), needless to say it sent my tank into a crash. Never used tap water since for anything that has to do with my reef.

Moved my 75 into a 150. Lost most of it. I can't even remember all the one-off losses of nice pieces, there's been so many over the years.

My list starts here.



This was my first heart breaking loss. Got it as a two polyp frag from he-who-likes-to-frag-a-lot. Grew it out to a nice massive colony. Quite a conversion piece. Then it slowly melted away

Not even going to bother to list all the other because I eventually got numb to all the losses after this first one.

One of my favorite pieces in my tank

I lost the tequila sunrise blastos I got from Denny. It was growing great lots of new babies. I decided to frag it cut a couple heads off and within a week it was gone

When I changed from my 180 to my 26 cube I lost all my deep water acros.
I was most upset over this one

This is the other meaning of lost ...

I picked a very small frag of Setosa from Rich and had it for less than a week
It was glued to the LR and twice I found it laying on the sand
The third time it was knocked off I looked for it for over an hour. It simply vanished
