Continuing 2 gallon water changes. Finished filling the QT (more like temporary FOWLR holding pen). It is my 30 gallon so it should be good for a tang. Who knows, maybe it will replace the BC14 at my office one day.
Found some pumping Xenia (for “weeds” this stuff is hard to find). Moved live rock from sump to the FOWLR-HP. Acclimated it for 20 minutes for temp. Then took out 3 cups from the bag and replaced with three cups from the tank every 10 minutes 4 times. Then into the BC14 as the “holding pen” to watch for parasites before fragging some for PRP.
In preparation for Anthias as well as to make my wrasse, chromis, firefish and clown happy I got some tigger pods today. Made a breeding ground from a 2 liter bottle with the top cut off and inverted back into the bottle. Inside I put a live rock and a wad of loofa for them to crawl on. Acclimated them for temp. Salinity was a match. Put some in the BC14 and some directly into the sump.
Big day – lots of stuff. Looking good, trying to recover from the inexplicable loss of the Foxface Rabbitfish One Spot.
