Don't look at it that way.

Think of it as someone has just taken the trash away for you...and spread it on someones else's doorstep.

you two ever see that movie chuck and larry, this could pay huge dividends in the fishkeeping world. Half price corals, permanent coral back up. TAX SAVINGS.....

Default Stress!

Well it was a scary past couple of days. It looked like the fish were not doing so well on friday night and I went into panic mode getting the tank swapped. At the end of the night I had everything swapped (3:00am) the plumbing was ghetto and still remains the same till this week when I go and pick up the parts.

I lost one leapard wasse it looked like a rock must have fallen on him - i really liked that little guy and will be getting another.

My family went away for the weekend and it was for the better as my main level looked like a battle zone. I have managed to get everything cleaned up but I still have to wash all the cupboards and floor as they all seam to have a skim of saltwater on them


A few pics of the swap.

I used as much of the old water as I could without getting the crap. I had most of the water made up in buckets and needed to make a bunch more as I under estimated the amount I was going to need.

A fancy way of getting the water in the tank:



I wanted to make sure the water has good air content so what a better way than running the skimmer in it



Ahhh - everything swapped and up and running. Aquacaping not complete.



I will have most the aquascaping complete today and will post later.

Chow

Jeff

So sorry about your Leopard wrasse and that it was kinda crazy.

I am planning on doing mine alone as well...just so I can deal with the mess later. I will definetly know to make more water than what I was planning on...thanks for the tip Jeff.

Will look forward to your new pictures once it is all done.
