Hey my kid put like capfull or less of milk in my reef tank it has leathers zoas mushrooms clownfish 2 its a 29 gal tank there is no were local for me to buy reef salt i have to order online and have it shipped here some is supposed to arrive this week but i dont know when should i be worried right now i can not do a water change at all will my livestock be okay its regular milk like from a grocery store red top.... i mean its just vitamins and calcium...... see if he gets grill chease and milk for lunch again..... lol well let me know if i am doomed or ok.... thanks this is my first post here :) made the account to ask this :)
 
just found out why he did it!!! he was there yesterday while i was checking my levels and i said calcium is low lol well if everything dies at least he knows milk has calcium lol oh god help me lol
 
*lol* that is why some species eat their young :p... sorry could not pass that up.

At least you kid has a brain in his/her head :). Also, in a kid way, shows that s/he is taking at least a passing interest in the hobby :).
 
well i can just hope i mean compared to water volume the amount he put should not hurt i hope....
 
That's awesome.. As a parent of 3 little kiddies (oldest is 4) I can understand where your coming from.

My son loves when the clownfish attacks me whenever I have my hands in the tank. The other day , he made a nice little ladder and was trying to get the clown to attack him.

I also love all the little handprints on the glass. Of course when you ask them if they were touching the glass you get a sincere "NO!"

I'm sure your tank will be fine.. I'm sure your LPS will enjoy the "added" calcium for their stalks.

WELCOME TO AA!
 
i sure hope your right goisles :) the leather has looked a little down for a while before this maybe it will bring him back to his formal self lol :) if it does the kid gets a hug instead of being grounded lol :)
 
Ran into one of the engineers at work who used to have a huge salt water set up before his kids came along. The amount shouldn't be a problem with water changes, hopefully. He got a chuckle out of the story too.
