HEY DSK

Mate, has it shown up yet? whats the Go! verdict?

 

[S.Reef]

Get a sweet moray. They really dont need a big tank as long as you have the proper filtration. I have a 26inch Yellowheaded Fibrated Moray in my 20 gallon. Scott Micheal recommends 30-70gallon for some of the larger species.

NO, I still havent seen it....

Im not sure what i am going to get next i have to wait for bill's to be paid. to see what i have left to spend but i will let everyone know when i get it.

 

[DSK]

OK....... I STILL CANT FIND IT.....

This is one of the wierdest things ever. has this ever happend to anyone other then me , or am i the only unlucky one on here.

Any other suggestions????????

 

[S.Reef]

Its is probably safe to say its dead. When a saltwaterfish dies it decomposes in a matter of days...so you probably wont find a carcass.

unfortunately I am going to agree with Sam here...it probably died in the rockwork somewhere never to be seen again

 

[aresgod]

did you see an ammonia spike?

 

[1979camaro]

with a small fish in a large tank you might not even notice an ammonia spike (if you happened to test for it)

 

[aresgod]

would just be the first thing i would do if i thought something had gone the wayside...how big a tank is this anyways?

 

[aresgod]

i dunno i have a 40 gallon long with 75 lbs of LR, and I have a lawnmower blenny that has been in there for a while that i only see every couple days, i did manage to find its hide out, pretty amazing the spaces they can fit in and occupy,

DSK
i wouldnt class it MIA or KIA just yet.

A mate didnt see his for weeks, he hid in the sand and then one day there he was.

 

[S.Reef]

I believe it is a 40 gallon tank. Even if its not dead, which I'm now sure it is after a week or two it will die of starvation anyways.

 

[DSK]

NO, i didnt check for an ammonia spike. I guess i can write that one off. but i did get some new stuff this weekend a lot of new stuff actually.

I just got done saying that i dont know anything about coral's or annemonie's bla.. bla.. bla.. but....

2:00 am on friday morning we had a huge structure fire, i had to cut a hole in roof of the house while it was still blazing but , I got back home around 9:00am and i was really tired and while i was laying down i decided to try corals. Because my luck has not been good in the one tank i figured ill try something diff.

So i got the following : Power Compact, galaxia, a Leather, Star palaps, 2 open brains, Calcium addative, Flash light fish (Kryptophanaron alfredi), mated pair of pecula's, flame angel, Actinic bulb for old balast, and some more live rock. <---- I'll be skinny for the next 2 weeks but it well worth it. And yes i did research befor getting it.

 

[1979camaro]

cool deal...good luck to ya!

 

[DSK]

yea well i may need advice more then any other time befor so be ready to help me. I'm sure i will do alright i got all soft corals so we will see.

 

[S.Reef]

Cool your a fire fighter. Good luck with the fish and corals.

 

[DSK]

IT BEATS DELIVERING PIZZA'S --- Thanks.

I am pretty excited about it. plus --- if the clowns breed without an anemonie ( not likely ) then I'll be really excited.

 

[S.Reef]

You know, clowns really dont breed with an anemone. I know a guy who breeds clowns. All he has in the tank is some live rock and clay flowerpots.

 

[S.Reef]

There is a link somewhere that I replied too about breeding clowns. It gives a pretty specific explaination on how to breed them...somewhere.

 

[DSK]

Yea i remember reading it. I started the post -- It was very good!!!

But i also have the flashlight fish in the tank so there are a lot of factors preventing breeding from happing. if there are sign's there are going to breed ill move the fish out and set up another tank for the fry --- I really want it to happen but its not like a main priority right now so ...
