2 years ago I left my tank in the hands of a friend to watch while I was out of town for 2 weeks. When I returned, I came home to a disaster. All my fish were dead and my coral was shriveled up. (a case of EXTREME overfeeding!) I immediately did a total water change when I got home, but the damage had already been done. I lost everything. I lost hundreds of dollars in softies and fish. On top of that I had suffered an outbreak of aptaisia that was like none other I had seen. I spent the last 2 years ridding my tank of the aptaisia. I am extremely happy to be at a point that I can start rebuilding my tank. I have had 2 clowns now for 1 year and they are doing great. They need some company! If anyone in the Rockford area has any softies, zoa's, shrooms that they are looking to thin out, I would greatly appreciate anything.
