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!

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!
