I'm gonna check out of the thread now. It's bizarre that people would take any pleasure from removing a wild animal from its habitat, shipping it halfway round the world, and trapping it in a box so they can watch it helplessly starve to death. Losing that $ is a fair consequence for the mistake of buying the fish, I don't see why you would be entitled to any store credit at all. The scam with the skimmer is shady but it's only money, killing the fish for no reason is cruel. I mean, you still won't have your cash back, but the fish will be dead. It doesn't make any sense and I don't understand why that would be a fun thing to do.
I'm really glad I had the good kind of parents that taught me a little bit about stewardship.
Calm down a little bit man. Everyone here made mistakes before. I highly doubt you never had a fish die on you. Overall he is doing pretty well to take advice and make the needed changes. Better than many. Being this aggressive towards him doesn't help much. I've seen comments on other boards about the poor attitude of reef central members, and while I don't agree with that, comments like yours only add to that narrative.
Chanceafrance pull the gravel and add the sand, that should be job one. Then set up that fuge. If you really want the dragonnets then I'd put algae in right away, some small rubble rock mounds and probably seed with some more pods. Also look up PaulBs tank. He built a feeder for his dragonnets to get them eating frozen food.
