I don't know man.... I would say that being there to hear the thud was probably the luckiest thing to happen to Lance in a while

Good save mang! Also good to hear he is ok.....albeit a little dusty

At least he gets a chance to revert to Harlequin Tuskfish instead of Harlequin Dustfish.

Good save! My candy hogfish did the same thing the other day. Sadly he wasn't so lucky though

Glad to hear you were there to make the save. I hate it when they suddenly decide to jump!

Hah! He looked like he'd been rolled in flour and was ready for the frying pan.

STUPID GBTA!!!!
It's never moved from it's spot in two years and grown to 15" across; happy as can be. All of a sudden it decides it wants to be somewhere else. And of course that somewhere else is right into the powerhead! Luckily, I came home when I did and turned off the pump before it got really ugly. Quite the mess with pieces of nem floating around the tank. I think it will be ok though, as it has since opened up again although a few tentacles are pretty mangled. The two Fire Clowns are avoiding it; almost like they know it's stressed and are giving it a rest. Wierd!

I await Doug's words of wisdom regarding nems but that really blows man. Hit the carbon heavy and good luck =)

Yeah, Dougie and nems don't see eye-to-eye.
I've done a 20% water change, and changed out the carbon and will keep a close eye on things. Will take a few pics tomorrow if all goes well.
