Catastrophe in Moving

[builderguy]

Well I moved my 120 over the weekend. Careful to put everything in a large 100g tub over the weekend...something went horribly wrong and almost everything died...ALL of my SPS, my LPS don't look like they will pull through, shrimp---gone, and half my fish are gone.

My only guess is either the first night they were just on airpumps for circulation...but everything still looked great on Saturday when I moved...even gave Justin a frag that apparrently is doing well. Other than that it could have been that there was some die off as a result of the move and the water quality rapidly went downhill over the weekend. By Monday night when I was putting my tank back together after moving all weekend it was too late...and by Tuesday morning...total wipeout.

I still have my clam, my quadricolor bubble tip anenomes (5), two skunk clowns, a coral goby, an emerald crab...even the xenia died!

On the bright side, I can rearrange my rock now....

So sorry to hear. Glad to see you are trying to find the bright side. I would like to offer you a few frags to get you back in the game. I have some small Digis if you want some.

A wipe out that fast also makes me assume the die off traveled up the ladder taking everything with it. I can only imagine your frustration Tom, and I am trully sorry for your loss I already promised you a tort but now I'd like to give you all that I can when your tank stabilizes.Plz let me know!

That's very generous guys...I appreciate it. I think it will take a few weeks to stabalize again. I'm doing another 20g waterchange tonight.

It's very confusing since I moved the same way last year without any problems.

sorry to hear! I always have frags for the needy Reefer

 

[builderguy]

I think it will be stable enough for frags again by the meeting...if any generous fellow reefers want to hook me up there.

I really appreciate it guys, and I would definitely return the favor in the future to any of you in need.

 

[matt aqua life]

let me know what you need always willing to help no money needed best of luck in the future us reefers will help you restock

 

[builderguy]

Well the tank is still not fully cycled so I'm going to have to wait to take you guys up on the offers until the October meeting...thanks again.

 

[builderguy]

Tank is stable...just need to reseed the worms and bugs and get my janitors!!

I hope you guys are still open to giving me a few "starter frags" on the 20th.
