    just caught up on this thread.

    scary rock slide! I've had that happen too... nothing like tie straps to give peace of mind ;)

    I like your fish selection, I'd be too nervous for high dollar fish (all my fish have been <$20

    Nice looking stuff.

    It was worse when I heard it from my bedroom. I never did the tie straps thing. I am not patient enough. It is my dream selection of fish. The black tang wasn't in my inhabitants but the price was to good to pass up. Thanks for the compliment.

    How much have your utilities(water, power, etc.) risen due to the larger volume? I've read once you go over 180 gallons, you can pretty much double your bills.

    Sounds good. I would like to see yours as well. I am free most Sunday afternoons(at least after the playoffs) PM me and we can try to set something up.

    All parameters are good. I found my cleaner wrasse dead, my sohal won't come out and eat(last time that happened ended up being a crab feast, and the black tang is in a cave and barely eating and he never turns down food.

    Sohal

    Caught the Sohal and put him in my QT. I don't think he will make it through the night unless a miracle happens. The black tank is almost back to normal. I guess its going to to be garlic and selcon twice a day until i feel he is up to par. All the other fish are doing fine.

    He was fine and eating good yesterday. I just don't know how he just bit it in under 24 hours.
