The case of the disappering fish....

[new2u]

shrimp will do that, do your sharks even fit in the 2.5 gallon? I would just trade them in to your lfs if i was you

 

[danj]

1 I would hate to give them up.... I've had them for 3 years now, & they have been trough all the changes in the tank.
2 Nobody really wants them.... Saltwater, Columbian Sharks ...its unheard of... anyway I'm making space for the new tank to be able to keep th sharks in this 29..... but seems like a lot of work for what 90+ gals for 9 fish? overkill?

 

[new2u]

i'd get a 120 use your damsels to cycle it (most ppl would say not to but i say hey why not) then trade the damsels in keep your clowns and start a crazily awesome FOWLR. You could keep some of the larger angels and tangs as well as other puffers and such. Just my dream tank lol

Well it's a choice that you're going to have to make. Eventually that 29 is going to be too small for the sharks. So what are you going to do with them then? So any other missing fish since the Isolation of the sharks?
Mine params are off... not like normal... Just did an exam. Nitrate = 5 , Nitrite = .1 , ammonia = .1 , Calcium = 500, akalinity = 140, phosphate = 0 , ph = 7.7 , Salinity = 1.024
Maybe it's the 3 fish in 3 days I added.

well 2 months ago i like threw my tank into recycle so yeah i know where your coming from

OOPs .... Well the sharks only grow to 10" if at 6 already ... I've got a couple of years ..... haven't lost anything since the Royal Gramma & the orange Percula went missing around Christmas.

[new2u]

:scared: :scared: :scared:
:nervous: :nervous: hmmm ummm ummm.... Speechless.
Let me think.

 

[new2u]

wait wait wait could it be the anenome? that would make since the clown tried to host and it ate him. I could decinatly see the anenome being the culprit

 

[d12monkey]

Danj: You have an Anemone???
If you do I still see it kinda difficult, because you say it was the percula that disappeared. They usually know better. But it is possible. Again if you have one... I don't remeber you posting anything about having one.

Also have a Hatian aneome, 3 or 4 snails 2 pepermint shrimp & maybe 4 or 5 hermit crabs. Now I know there is supposed to be 1 orange percula & 1 royal gramma but neither have been seen in a day or so.
Magoo.... I'm a diehard Earnhart fan ... but also a Tony Stewart fan ... I used to follow hin in the IRL.....
