Alright so long long long over due update.
Long story short there was a 3 day power outage back in mid December anyways our generator was broken and unfortunately lost most of my coral and lost the yasha to the outage. I was absolutely devastated as I worked really hard on this tank and seeing it crash and burn broke my heart. I floated hot water bottles and had an aerator going so I did manage to save more than I thought.
This was the aftermath after the power came back on. I lost all the sps my fat sticks the one I was the most upset about. I lost my gonis I did save one alveolar and most of the lps made it. I did loose a couple favias and I had an amazing recovery of the war coral and the dragons soul favia. My first acans looked like crap. Well my husband and I were already setting up the 75 gallon and decided to move everyone into the 75 so it would be more stable and would help with recovery. Every looks absolutely stunning again and have made a full recovery my gramma is enjoying the new caves and still swims all around the whole tank like he did in the evo.
Here are some of the survivors as you can see everyone has grown quite a bit my original acans went from 4 polyps to that giant ball in the center! My blasto has gain some heads and my candy cane has exploded with growth! I couldn't be happier! Well now I had an empty evo. Well it happens I went to the fish store for my husband to get him these red cardinals (which I never see them in the 75 and there are 4!) When I stumbled upon a pair of clowns I had to have. Now the 75 already had a pair of clarki clowns. That is how the evo got revived!
Now I moved the location of my evo to my bedroom and I was so excited to add my beautiful clowns! I got everything set tank looks great! I got a pair of firefish and everything was going well and then I notice my prized clowns had brook . That was all my fault I should have quarantined the firefish. Well the clowns and firefish got treated and tank left fallow. I finally just moved the fish back in after a nice long fallow period and let me tell you I totally slacked while the fish were out. So the tank doesn't look the best but here is the current tank we are working with.
I am going to do one more good water change and we should be back on track. It is going through the ugly stage right now but I am super excited for this tank. I have decided to stick with lps and softies for this tank I want to do a beautiful acan garden and zoa rock. I think it would look nice.
I know it was a big update and I felt like I wrote a book lol!
