Ya, post some pics to relieve the pain! :(

In the future you can easily euthanize fish by putting them in a bag with just enough tank water to cover them, and put them in the freezer. One of the most humane ways.

Thats basically what my brother did, i just couldnt bear to do it myself. The two fish that were euthanized last night were my two favorite fish and the fish ive had the longest, going on 3 years!

Oi, that sucks!! :(

Here are some pics of the tank i took today. Ive been bummed out about loosing all my fish so i havent done too much to the tank, today i gave it a good thourogh cleaning so i figured id take some pic for you all. I re-aquascaped about 3 weeks ago so here are the new pics!

Wow, looking GREAT!!

Sorry to hear about the trouble:neutral:

Thanks Myka, been a long time comming!

You win some you loose some, this is the nature of this hobby, but i do get to restock now with some of the fish ive always wanted!

Thats a great attitude to have. What are some of the fish you would like to have?

I'm not entirely sure yet, i was thinking perhaps a different type of blenny, maybe a midas blenny. Different goby type. And id like to get a really nice tang maybe a Sohal. We will see what peeks my interest when the time comes!

well i haven't updated in a LONG time because i haven't been feeling like the tank has been worth an update. Between becoming a daddy, and a ongoing and non stop battle with bryopsis and some type of caulerpa ive had my hands full. Finally ive decided the tank is becoming update worthy so here are a few pictures! Don't worry the unicorn tang will get a new home when he grows a little bit, i just got him today to eat some of the algae i have growing, he is doing a fantastic job!

Hey there ryan, the tanks looking great, like the new tang, as well as the fox face........lol. Keep up the good work with the tanks aswell as being a great new dad.
Niall

I just got a Midas blenny very neat fish. He is one of my favorite fishes very funny to watch.

I still haven't picked out my blenny yet, im torn between going for looks or efficiency at cleaning the tank!!!

Tank looks good!

Hey everyone. My wife and i just bought an hd camcorder so i thought i would try it out on the tank. Here is a video i put together using adobe premiere! Enjoy!!

Nice! God job.

Er...........That should be: Good Job. :biggrin:

Fish look great and Great polyp extension on the SPS.

Are you using a wavebox?

Thanks, and yep i am using a nano wavebox, but i think its a little too small for the tank, there isnt enough displacment by the box. The wave is very easily eaten up by all the other flow in the tank. The biggest culprit is the overflow, with it off the wave looks really nice!

Loved the video and the music is perfect. How is mommy and the little one by the way?

I love your theme song!!! Tank is looking really good now. You have some great corals.

Hehe! Momma and Baby are doing great thanks for asking! Here is a recent picture of her! Man do they grow fast!!

Its taken a long time to get there and there is still a long way to go with the bryopsis! That stuff is the bane of my excistense!

Great Photo! I think you may have a future actress/model on your hands dad. Thanks for
sharing.

Is the Unicorn helping with the bryopsis at all?

Been a while since ive updated the thread with some pictures! I changed my bulbs out last week from my 1 year old xm 20k bulbs to some el cheap plus rite 14k's. Took some getting used to but i think they are really growing on me! I've undergone a slight algae bloom from the new lights, but its starting to come back under control! Enjoy!

Here are some new pics, i haven't updated for a while! I am FINALLY over my bout with Bryopsis its been a long battle! I think the clincher was me finally getting a lettuce nudibrach, and completely vaccuming the sand bed regularly with my water changes! I treated myself to a strawberry patch monti cap frag for finally winning!

Wow the tank is looking great, looks like the green slimer is taking off like a weed aswell as the blue acro behind the birds nest. Keep up the great work, tanks is looking great. The rescapeing looks nice.


Niall

The tank looks great! :mrgreen:
We need a baby update as well there, Dad! :wink:

Oh she is too cute! Yum peas!
Those eyes just made my day!!! :biggrin::biggrin:

Thanks for the great pics!

Leah

What a cutie! Those big eyes of hers are gonna break some hearts one day. :biggrin:

Wow great looking tank!

Are you finding that your Hydnophora is a problem with your other SPS? I love the look of them but have been hesitant to get one due to the fact that most people regret getting them due to there aggressiveness?

No i haven't found it to be too much of a problem. Actually it was sitting probably within 1/4 inch from the red monti cap for the longest time and neither seemed to be bothered with eachother!

Hehe Thanks Lance, those eyes already break hearts. Namely her parents.
