Where's The Reef?
"Your Best Days Come From Your Worst Days."
-Some Wise Man.
Well.Its sure been a day.I got up this morning and did my monthly magnifying glass go through inspection on my reef today.It became apparent I was a month to late, I noticed a tiny red bubble algae, if you don't know what that is, read up on it.I took that rock out, and it was just covered on the back, so rather than trying to get it off there, I threw it out, and inspected other pieces, one other rock beside it had been hit and was spreading.I threw it out too.All in all I lost about 75 doll hairs of live rock...Now I only have about 25lbs left, my coral population looks like it has doubled in size.Tank was cloudy from stirred up detritus, so I did a 5g(15% water change and siphoned the sandbed heavily.Tank looks so empty now.They were beautiful pieces of Fiji that had so much purple I could have gave some away and still had more than most rock do.Talk about a bummer of a day, I am trying to keep happy.Its tough though, but nothing is so bad that it can't get worse.
Well that was my day, how did yours turn out?
