yeah i got bad news...

my nox angel has left us. last night one of my anemones decided to take ride through one of my koralias and apparently didn't like it. i got up to use the bathroom and saw my tank. it looked like someone had poured milk into it. seriously i could not see anything. so i turned off the powerheads and began siphoning out water. i did about a 50% water change and now my salinity is at 1.022 from the usual 1.026. i didn't have enough sw so i had to mix in rodi, and well i did what i had to. anyway the casualties include my nox, 2 crabs, and the setosa. luckily the wc cleared up the water along with a big bag of carbon. so the rest of my corals look fine as does my harlequin shrimp. i got the anemone out of the powerhead but he lost about half his body. now it is just a blob with about 10 tentacles left. hopefully he makes it. i will post a pick to show what he looks like.

ok for a pic reference. here is the anemone last week in the center of the pic. fully extended it was about 8" across. the second pic shows what is left after the swirly.



it is the one up on the side pane on the box. the one on the bottom is the anemone that is on the bottom right of the first pic.

ok big update time...

i am breaking down this tank. ...yeah, i know.

i have decided that i need a larger tank. i will be acquiring some new corals and colonies from different people so i need more room to house them. i have already transferred everything out of this tank into a temp. tank, and will begin cleaning later today. if you are interested in purchasing this tank and stand combo there will be a for sale thread posted up shortly.

i am sad to let this one go because it is the perfect cube, but it is time to say sayonara....

so far this is just and idea. still need to hash out the details.

can you guess where i got the idea for design from?

~alex

[aggman]

the wood is wrong, it will look more like this one...



but you get the idea.
