Blue hippo tang

[zimonie]

i just moved my rock around, i took out the rock and checked it to make sure no fish where in it. And i got it all set up. I waited and waited so i could make sure i had all my fish. After waiting like an hour i could't see my blue hippo tank, so i started to take all the rock back out. Now i have no rock in the tank and still no Tang?? Once agian i checked all the crevises of the rock to make sure it not in there. I also checked the overflows just to ease my mind, i have no clue where it went. Anytihng like this happen u yous, or do u have any advise??

They like to lie down on thier sides AND wedge themselves between the smallest crack in your live rock.

Generaly 1 1/2 to 2lbs a gallon is good. You can mix that with base though.
