Aquarium Advice Regular
I added my hippo tang 3 days ago and he was doing well.
This morning, the blue neon lights stopped working that left the tank pitch black sometime that night.
I couldn't find my hippo tang. Hippo tangs usually hides alot so my first thought was that he was just sleeping somewhere and should come out soon.
Then I thought for the worst and start looking for its body but I could not find him. So I moved all my rocks( what a mess) and still couldnt find him.
Then I moved the sand alittle bit cause maybe he got coated by sand but i still couldnt find him.
About an hour ago, i tried again and there he was, in the middle of my live rock stuck and could not get out. Tried the powerhead but he's in there pretty tight.
So i had to take the rock out and move it to a bucket with water of course and start chipping the rock slowly.
It didnt take long until i split the rock and he got out free.
Right now, he is very scared and is very still right next to a live rock.
Hopefully he'll make a full recovery. I love my hippo tang.
