Smitty's 40 Gallon Breeder - I miss this tank :(

Ya, sorry man. Hows your ammonia? It might have been spiked because of the rock movement. Maybe you mixed up some dead spots a little too much. It's good that everything else is acting okay though.

Give me a second, I will check it. I have noticed my coral banded shrimp is out tonight. Usually he is sleeping right now. I may place the blame on him, he is coming out tonight either way. He will be going to the LFS tomorrow!

 

Well that's good. It's a shame, they are really pretty inverts. I thought it didn't have any marks though?

 

He doesn't have any marks on him. I just needed some reason to justify his death.

 

Must be the tank chemistry then.. If there aren't any marks on him then its one of two things, the coral banded shrimp has the force and mentally strangled your fish to death, or your params are off in something. Did you take the fish out yet?

 

Ammonia is 0, I honestly think I just stressed him out to much moving everything around. I will test for other stuff tonight. I just don't think it has anything to do with my params because everybody else is perfectly happy.

 

Your corals are a major way of telling if something is messed up. if they look healthy, then your probably right.

 

My corals are all starting to open back up, which as you say is another good indicator as well that everything is fine. Thanks

 

Yep, sounds like your on the right track now, good luck catching that shrimp
