It's a 1am TANK THREAD! :D

[Ketchup]

60 rics = 1500 - 2000 bucks down the drain... must have been quite traumatic.

Not so expensive but still painful

[straydum]

how do rics melt away? like literally? so far a i've kept only ONE ric and its still there

ketchup did you find out the cause eventually?

[TayHongSiang]

any pictures of your new sump?

[MarcoVan]

I am so FUCKINGFUCKINGFUCKING tired now.

Bloody office power tripped. Almost all SPS gone. WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF! now when I look at my SPS, I realised I had grown most of them from 2 inch frags to a palm size! now all down the *expletive* drain drain drain drain!!!!

the only consolation is nothing has come to my zoas yet though they are still closed. but rics some of them starting to melt. DUMPED CARBON in already. changed 8 times water. tank water still milky !!!

[MarcoVan]

First time in this hobby I feel like giving up. Dont want to care about it anymore.

Oh yah, all my fishes died too. SCREW THE PUB!

[dnsfpl]

may you come back stronger

thanks bro.

I hope nobody has to face the same fate as I do. Just finished clearing the mess and water.

Alot of frags and casualties. mostly all sps except my blue ceph and my fiji pulsing xenia. Imagine all growing very big and healthy and one Murphy comes; I have to start from zero again ><

[TayHongSiang]

i think u need some beer....

[Harlequinmania]

Murphy law does come knocking on our door at time, and i remember the time when we are almost done setting up the competition tank and about to leave, the "One day old" skimmer suddenly stop running Next thing we know when we try to rectify the problem, the pipe give way and the water came rushing out and trip all the other tank there

Think of it as an opportunity to get ride of what you doesn't want and to re-plan what you always wanted to try / keep this time. Some time restart is not a bad thing after all keke,,

[desideria]

aiyo marcovan, i'm so sad to hear of your loss.. you had a beautiful tank..

I just hope that your zoos survive as you have a beautiful collection.

Hugs...

V sad to hear that, all of your collection lost overnight.

It's time u consider moving the tank back home so that it can receive 24-7 care?

[MarcoVan]

haha. thanks bro for the offer but I think I am okay already. Moved out of the emo side (:

Yeah Larry, I agree. I did looked at this side of a broken down tank and thought that it's not such a bad deal afterall.

Nonetheless, the hurt of seeing something grown from rock bottom to a certain glory does hurt. I don't know how bad is the damage because from the state I left my tank just now before leaving office, I still see a lot of rtning. Just pray that my precious zoas dont get affected ><

Thanks desi. Anyway I have replied you in PM (:

haha, I think it will still be a NO from my mum.

She's adamant that my fish tank in the house brings more bad feng shui and misfortunates than good luck ><

Anyway thanks digiman for your advice (: Seriously and trust me, that thought has always been on my mind

[klyve]

bro sad to heard about your loss.

It also happen to me before when my chiller went down and klii all my corals collection overnight so i can felt your pain.

Dont worry i believe that u will come back even stronger!!!

[Ketchup]

yeah spirits is up. just that it's still kinda heartbreaking to see some of the corals shrinking, or dying/ Especially when some of them are already growing at quite a fast rate ><

Anyway I have cleared all my sps except the monti and digis. Milles, acros, birdnests and poccis are all down the drain. All died. Think about ponapes, bird of paradise, red planet, true fibre optic pocci, and other interesting colors acros all gone in one shot. Seriously, quite a disaster ><

[TayHongSiang]
