Thanks Mike but had big problems. No answers or ideas. Never before such problems. Lost corals, and fishes. My clowns are sick but in quarantine being treated.

I have a 35g RSM with my stuff moved in. Pretty nice tank as you know. Not the large one but thats fine.

Tanks DONE. Wrapped up waiting for sale. Can only take so much. Lost several hundred $$$$$$ in frags. Scoops gets ick out of the blue?????? Lost several fish. Never in all my years have I had problems like that.
Now I have my prized pair of percs in quarantine trying to save their life, with momma looking out of the glass at me for help. SAD.
I have moved my remaining corals and frags plus the surviving fish to my 35g RSM I got from a good friend. Will start a thread on it at a later date after this passes.
Anywho its the end of this one. Shows you should be happy with what you have. My 50g Fluvial was doing great, fish happy and great coral growth & colour. But oh no, have to upgrade. BLAH !!!!!!

Sorry to hear about the bumpy road this build took. Forgive me if I am misunderstanding, but your scopas got ick (and died?) and you have the clowns in QT, but you moved other fish and coral to the 35g RSM? Wouldn't that guarantee the the RSM has ick now? It's also very late, so I may be missing something obvious.

In any event, you must have the patience of Job to continue after this roller coaster of a tank build. I'd feel like throwing in the towel if I had to go through this! I hope things settle down with your next one.
