jbj 28hqi build.... sorta.

[coffeetwitch]

that is a great looking beauty. really nice purple on him.

 

[kurtyboh]

thanks! that is def what i love about him, a lot of purple- he's found my ph and has been riding the current for about an hr now

 

[kurtyboh]

oh and how long should i wait before i get worried about this new one not eating? i dropped in an algae sheet and one of the rocks i put in had quite a bit on it as well... haven't seen a nip yet. my clown went for food instantly, but this one doesnt seem interested. I understand there will be a time for him to adjust but realistically how long is too long?

 

[coffeetwitch]

the 3 angels ive had experience with love mysis shrimp. if you have some of that i would try it. they all seemed to only graze on the algae.

 

[kurtyboh]

will do thanks Jesse!

 

[coffeetwitch]

yes sir, hope it helps.

 

[kurtyboh]

oh and a word to the wise... If your 2yr old helps you feed and you use tetramin sw granules; they will stick to microsuede and apparently well enough so that a vacuum cannot pick them up... and it doesnt help that i have like 1 lb jars either....

 

[kurtyboh]

i woke up to find the beauty stuck to the power head, still alive so that was a good thing. One fin looks a little beat up but not torn and is certainly coddling that side... i am headin back to the hosp (for the 12th day in a row) for my son Ellias-just cant kick the jaundice thing. so i turned off the ph and hope everything will be alright; at least i think thats how the song goes.

 

[coffeetwitch]

hope your baby kicks this jaundice thing soon and your coral beauty pulls through too.

 

[carey]

Good luck with everything Kurty!

 

[SwimsWithFish]

Hope it goes ok!!!

 

[kurtyboh]

Yeah, im kinda upset with myself for buying from the store... Like i said earlier they had a bunch of death in their tank. The inverts i got from them last time had such bad water ittook well over 12hrs to acclimate.

I feel horrible even though i know its survival would have been limited in the store

 

[Adio800]

Hope all turns out well!

 

[kurtyboh]

Well... Back from the hospital and beauty died. Back to the store i go

 

[SwimsWithFish]

I'm sorry man

 

[Jlsardina]

That really sucks. Sorry to hear that. And hope the jaundice clears up. My daughter had it after she was born. Sunlight really helped a lot

 

[kurtyboh]

I told my wife to keep the sunglasses we can put him under my qt t5's. She was not a fan of the idea

Lol. Well best of luck

 

[kurtyboh]

Well its replacement only for the fish, hopefully this one does better

 

[kurtyboh]

The new beauty is eating and doing quite well. Will get a pic as soon as I get him in.

Also someone has a mandarin goby for sale, along with the rest of his tank stuff... Bunch of corals and such.
