Sorry to hear

Thanks.
I'm suffering too. Not as much as he is, but I keep going every hour to check on him.

Last time I thought the end was coming.

Upside down isn't good. BUT I noticed his mouth is FIRST TIME (completely closed)

But I just checked now, and Saw him swimming to get into a better spot. (SHOCKED ME)
They he lay down.

Hoping for a MIRACLE with MEDS. but hopes are Low. VERY LOW.

 

[WallyB]

IT's OVER.

CLOWN DIED.

 

[Fudsey]

Sorry

 

[WallyB]

Sorry

Yup. Just part of the Hobby downs.

Time to Move on.....And back to the SPS TANK.

FTS ( Photo Update) with "Little Red Ferrari" Frag

I also Pruned the "Blue Tipped STAG" TIPS
......It Lost it BLUE Tips from VCA Nozzle Laminr Flow. *
......It wasn't getting enough light at the Far Right (under EuroTrim)

** MOVED It Away and into Center of Tank" **. Doesn't fit in there but it should heal and look better.

A little CLOSER on the New FRAG

And a Growth Shot of Orange Sentosa

That is beat Wally, sorry to hear.

 

[Rakie]

The good news is your SPS tank is doing well.

I THINK I DISCOVERED A (PEST) Explains why my Red Dragon was getting Irritated.

I forget what these are Called. Think a VERMTID WORM.

They shoot a SPIDER WEB thing. I see cobweb around the area constantly.

HARD TO REACH THIS AREA!!

Can I just make up some PUTTY, with some CRYANO GLUE and cover it?

 

[WallyB]

Here is a CLOSER PHOTO.

That is on a piece of ROCK that I got the RED DRAGON on. From Sellers Mature Tank.

Should I yank the ROCK. And Cut off whatever is on it.

Or to be safe Kill the ROCK.

 

[WallyB]

I yanked the ROCK and carved COMPLETELY out whatever it was.

Not taking any chance with Risky Pests.

I hated seeing that WEB constantly showing up.
Thought is was lack of circulation.

Now I put rock back (after Freshwater Rinse).

Should I remove it? Dip It? to be extra safe.

I would not dip a whole rock. Too many pourous spots. I think you did the right thing to pull and remove a chunk. I would just continue to monitor.

 

[Fudsey]

You took care of it, no need to dip the rock as @NY_Caveman stated, too porous and it will retain the dip.

OK.
For now no dip. GOOD POINT. DIP would soak in. Thanks.

It's not a big rock. Just a small piece. Size of Golf Ball.
I could trash it, but it fits in perfectly and Coraline Matches bigger rocks.

The more I zoom into-PHOTO on various parts of that rock the more I see IT's REALLY ALIVE.

What the heck is that? Sponge? Baby microscopic. This is really zoomed in.

Probably all good stuff, except for that worm.

MAGMA WRASSE ( Getting Comfortable in DT) Eating Very Well *ALL FOODS *

I may have lost the Clown....but the MAGMA is way more important.

I can tell ever so slightly he is growing.

What’s the new frag ? Another red dragon ?

 

[Rakie]

If you end up with vermatid snails I can tell you how to kill them easily. Just let me know if they grow

 

[WallyB]

Photo I posted is bad, and I think it need to color up.

The new (super little) Frag is a (Little Red Ferrari) similar to Red Dragon, but Skin Color side by side it's not a red dragon for sure.
Tips/Polyps are Yellow. Glow under actinic Green.

How do you kill them easy?

 

[WallyB]

How do you kill them easy?

Yeah how? Just in case any more show up. But I look really good all over. NO MORE of that Cobweb thing anywhere in Tank.
The WEB actually destroyed a good chunk of my Red Dragon. I had to Frag it up and moved to back (looks awful chopped up).

 

[WallyB]

Some Minor Adjustments:

after Pruning (Blue Tipped Stag, Red Dragon) and placement Changes (Burnin Banana). I also Tossed the Bisquet Tubinaria, it just faded out.

Put in some replacements on the EMPTY SPOTS (with a Frogspawn TRADE from Kitchen Tank...Broken to Catch Clowns).

Got a Bonape, The Green ____, and one Encrusting Orange _____ frag.
Nice not to have to SPEND any $'s

I really like the Plug Feet...Raised Tonga Rock on Left. Might Raise the Right one too.
