OK I'm actually getting mad ...
I was sitting around last night looking at my tanks and in my Nanocube I had a Strawberry Psuedo and a Perc. I noticed that my Perc was out and about enjoying the current and what looked to be nestling with my gsp!!! WooHooo on that part! ANYWAY ... I didn't see my Strawberry so I figured he was probably in his little cave he found and is chillin. So I grabbed my flashlight and looked around the back of the tank and HE IS NOWHERE? I looked all over for him, I even looked in the back chambers because I've read a few stories of fish getting in there and not being able to get back out AND NOPE HE'S NOT THERE! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
So I grabbed my test kits and start testing the water! All my readings came back spectacular .. Ph 8.2, SG 1.024, Temp 79.8, Ammo 0, Trites 0, Trates <5. Even better than what I had prior when the trates were up around 15????
I am clueless as to why it is only my Perc's that are soldiers! They seem to be the only fish I can keep? In the last month I have now lost a CB Angel, Yellow Clown Goby, and a Strawberry Psuedo??? I also find it odd that there is no visual signs of the Strawberry left over. I only have 3 Scarlets in there and I don't think they could have devoured him that fast as he was in there the night before (or maybe they could have)???
BUT what I did notice is that I have a unidentified crab lurking in the darkness of the back of the tank ... brown in color, looks like hairy legs, and black claws! I saw him while looking for the Strawberry and he quickly ducked out of site into the rock!!!!?
Sorry for the long post, but I'm going crazy here!! Maybe I should just stick to clowns huh?
