    I'm sorry Gambit. It's always a bummer to lose a fish so fast.

    Dude, that sucks! Glad you were able to get credit atleast.
    This is what I was worried about with my canary blenny that has adopted the magnetic base as it's safe haven at night.
    I had a spare k2 in the tank originally as I was adjusting the flow in the tank and I caught him hiding inside it one day. took it out of the tank 10 minutes later and made sure all the snailgards where on all the rest!

    Yeah, only fish that are pretty much doomed get stuck to a powerhead.


    Sorry for the loss. I am still on attempt 1, and maybe I will try attempt 2 with the CBB soon.

    Mine ate in the store too, but in my DT it didn't want to eat.

    Well! On the bright side, I still have two healthy wrasses and 2 healthy and piggy Banngai Cardinals! :D. Still pretty bummed about the butterfly, will see how this next one pans out.
