these last few days i have the fun pleasure of breaking down 2 tanks and setting up a new tank. it would have been nice if everything had gone as planned, but nothing ever does.
i ended up losing my both fishes, a flame anglefish and blood red hawkfish, most of my sps corals, and a clam. but fortunately all my shrooms, zoanthids, frogspawns, 2 clams and a peppermint shrimp made it without issue.
i was able to reuse about 80 gallons of tank water and most of the live sand, and added 50 gallons of new saltwater. i didn't realize how much rock and corals i had until i had everything loaded up!
so today, i added another tunze powerhead, and gave a purple tang a new home.... my 125gl reeftank:)
i have plans to add a small fiji foxface, then another bloodred hawkfish next month!
