The week in review

A lot has happened this week, to sum it up the Tomato clown Confit came down with ich and was unable to be saved. I think Ich was also the cause of the Royal Grammas demise. I tested water and it looked great Salinity 1.026, kH 12-13, Calcium 450. I did not test for Nitrates, as the tank looked great and probably had 0. The Sun Coral and Anemone have both been doing awesome, and the Anemone has completely recovered from its fall. I also found the reason why my BTA deflates and looks like it is going to die for about 30 minutes each day. The reason is it is pooping, and getting new water for its tentacles. I watched it carefully today when it did that, and it released a bunch of nasty brown stuff, which I identified as poop. I QT the Tomato before it died, and non of my other fish are showing signs of ICH, so I think we are in the cure. I made a quick list of fish I am thinking of adding to replace the 2 that I lost:

--- Mandarin ( I have LOTS of Pods)
--- Flame Angel
---Coral Beauty
--- Foxface
----Firefish
