    The blue chromis is gone.......

    I bought 5 to jump start a tank cycle and all but this one died. I hated him, and tried catching him but always ruined by corals, or rockwork.....

    The water was cloudy after a water change and he swam right into my hand. I put him in a little bowl. I think he was tired of running like felon he was....

    Hes going back to the lfs tomorrow...if im nice.....

    If i had a worse day today, i would have thrown a live extension chord in the little tank hes in now....
    I hated him. He tried to kill everyone. He nipped at hermits, snails, the clown that died, my gramma, my coral beauty, and my polyps. He like a swimming anenome.

    lol, i had the same issue. Two damsels to start my tank, added fish later on they were great but one was very aggressive. took me 2 long hours to catch him, im pretty sure i killed tons of corals, and my rock work lol. I was so mad i threw him in my fresh water tank and he lived for 6 months.

    Well, you see, my dog was begging me for some of the pizza i was eating....Im actually going to hold onto him and use him for the 10 gal im starting up in a few days. I placed him in a clear plastic cup with a lid and hole. Hes floating in the original tank. He can stay in that lil cup as torture until i decide to buy sand and water for the new tank. Who knows, i might leave him in there for a month or so.....
