SRC Member framerunner Posted August 31, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted August 31, 2005 Shall not say the name but i think it is the same shop we are refering to. My experience is that i bought 2 clowns from them before and when i reach home 15 min later, they already RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member tayhonglee Posted August 31, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted August 31, 2005 15mins?? wow, thats fast. maybe its the heat in your car or something, plus maybe the fishes are already weak. i really don't know what happened to mine. kinda sad actually. after i acclimate them, they dive straight into the rocks for cover. only realise they died after my ozone kept pumping to maintain redox. theres only one fish left. it looks pretty happy and feeding quite well. no predators or bullies in my tank. maybe its due to arsenic or something.

SRC Member Dazza Posted August 31, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted August 31, 2005 wah piang 15 mins ....... anything maybe the source is not a reputable one lah... may be due to method of collection at the source, ie, cynide poisoning...

SRC Member tayhonglee Posted August 31, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted August 31, 2005 haha, you really got big ones framerunner. i wouldn't dare to taste water from tank, much less water from LFS. hey del, the blue tang still doing great. swimming and eating everything except seaweed. dunno why also. it eats the prawn and squid and clam and oyster meat in my homemade food, but refuses to entertain the seaweed i mixed in. beats me. its getting a little too big for my nano though. almost 1.5 inches now. all thats left from 3 days ago is the hi fin red band goby.

Common fishes, fishes bought can die within' a day! 3. Fishes are mixed together. 4. No hermits and some other inverts which are common in other LFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
