Thanks, Kristy and Erik. I never played around with topdown shots before. I might have to take some time to try and get some cool shots.
I don't know how to explain my tang being fine during the afternoon and then several hours later he's dead. Seriously. I stare at my fish and coral all the time...when something goes wrong I'm on top of it and know about it pretty quickly. Now if it was a couple of days or something and I found him then I might think the tang's health could have declined....but how do you explain a healthy fish two hours before this?
Oh...let's not forget that I have all the "NO WAY" incidents....
-Purple Tang eating acans (I saw him...several times, I had to tear the entire tank down to get him because he hid in my tunnels....I actually had to put a K4 in the tunnel and a net on the other end....and believe it or not it took almost an hour for him to grow tired of swimming against the current)
-Cleaner Wrasse eating clams!!!! (Yep, also witnessed it, go ahead say; "No Way" again....I say it all the time with my tank)
shelter for the clams from the lame cleaner wrasse:
-Carpet Anemone ate my scopas tang (came home and my large HEALTHY scopas was bottum up in the anemone's mouth, it took over three hours to get the anemone out! His base was under 4" of sand and about 3 or 4 inches under my rock work! I had 4 or more missing fish in the few months that carpet was in my care)
-Coral Beauty eating clams (ok...little more common here...I should have known better)
-Quad of Square Anthias fighting until they were all dead (craaaazy)
-Hydroids of some sort eating my GBTA clone...(yep...I posted pics back in the day too, I still have them and occasionally they catch small frogspawn tents or polyps)
here...
See....get's crazy in my tank!
Anyways.....just another $60 and a day of reefkeeping. lol
And...in memory of my little budyy:
