    Glad to hear you got her out, but that sucks you had to take out all of your rock.

    well at least you got the fish out. only time I can do that is when they think Im about to feed them. they all come to the surface.. but after a few attempts with a net, the fishes know Im trying to caught one of them.. and bolt into their holes..

    thanks i really wish i was able to catch the chromis to, he's being an ass to everyone, and yea its a complete MESS ive got stressed out fish and pissed off corals, hopefully everyone recovers, ive only got a small filter for carbon, im going to get a larger filter since im sure the corals are going to be releasing some nasty stuff as well
    yea ive tried that a few times with the chromis doesnt work very well lol

    Sorry you have to take the wrasse back, but you are doing the right thing. I just wish the fish were easier to catch.

    What's the prob with the chromis? I've been thinking of adding a blue/green chromis. I had one years ago and had no probs with him at all? was I just lucky?

    he is the most aggressive fish. He has killed 5 chromis, terrorized and killed a McCoskers Flasher Wrasse. And terrorizes any other fish, big or small just for the heck of it, and is impossible to catch.

    With my experience i highly reccomend to NOT get chromis, but most have better experiences with them
