Rosie dying...

[Cookiemunster]

yup..my two mh lights are still waiting in the storeroom for me to release their potential...

yeah I guess I forgot to be specific and tell you that good equipment is important but its also important to remove them from their boxes and set them up too.

[Acanthurus pyroferus]

you gotta get going with the MH girl.... who should I be advising when I'm slow myself....

[chrislwp]

Sorry, is Rosie refering to Rose anemone?

yup... this one...

[chrislwp]

Wah.. so beautiful.. feel sorry for u too.

I bought 1 a mth ago, not very big. And last week it split into 2, now even smaller..

[Acanthurus pyroferus]

thats how anemones produce .... so you have a pair now....

[chrislwp]

If it split again, I can give flubberina one.

[nutx]

Sorry to hear of the rosie sis.

But to add on to what AT said. I already told you that you really needed to upgrade the skimmer. Its the life saver of the tank. And better do it FAST....from what I heard from your 'kind soul' situations not good.

Sad to hear this too!

btw, how to detect 'situations not good'?

I start to worry abt my tank now, as I need to be away for 3-4 days every month .....

[flubberina13]

If it split again, I can give flubberina one.

Wah...so sweet of you...

How about I offer my home-prepared food for your fish in exchange? I paiseh to take things like that...

reduction in size and not feeding well usually.....are some signs. watch your clown's behaviour as well. They can detec when an anemone is not well

[chrislwp]

No need lah.. From you previous post you are also giving your fish to ppl, so one day someone will return you something

BTW Do you know how long it takes to split again?

It's actually about a CD size.. after split becomes the size of a egg tug. Still waiting for it to regain it size again..

[Acanthurus pyroferus]

depending on the cycle , just mark the day it became 2....I don't think it will take long for another to appear.

[chrislwp]

OK. If I am not wrong, it split on the 27Dec.

So flubberina, your baby rose is coming soon. heh

[Acanthurus pyroferus]

Your tank conditions must be good so look out for more replica's....

[flubberina13]

Thanks in advance...

Anyway, it's just that I dun believe in selling things that have lives and circumstances do not permit me to keep them, I rather give them away.

But nowadays, I dare not give in public, scare liao...wait skarly got some irresponsible reefers want...

[Acanthurus pyroferus]

he...he...that is widely known....

[flubberina13]

Eulogy : Rosie...not just a Rose by any name...

When I saw your counterparts, I hunger to possess you...

Waited and waited...you sent angels to me...

Informing me of your whereabouts...

No second thoughts, send angels after you...

With anticipation, I awaited your arrival...

WoW!!! Mouth ajar, eyes sparkle, heart a flutter...

You are so beautiful...

With sweet tears of joy, I lovingly and gently laid you on the sandbed...

People judged me, people laughed...for I fed you not once but twice a day...

Overfed, turning gluttonious? I proved them for you flourished and grew...

Never had you strayed from your spot...

Couple of times, I glared at you for my percula and nemo you devoured...

However, it was never your mastery...Only Tommy to blame for the conspiracy...

Went States with a heavy heart, wonder if you will wither and fade...

came back see you in good stead and worry more for your environment...

And went changing your water beyond resting my jet-lagged soul...

Monday, back from work...saw your glands spilling out to me...

crying and screaming for help through the day but alas...

Was not in sight when you needed me most...

Lived in a state of denial about you, working like zombie to ease the torment...

Today, you left silently with a trail of pristine white layer...

And telling me of the stench of the assault the bacteria did on you...

It was beyond hope I can see...I am sorry that I have failed you...

Pls forgive me for I have sinned...

Rosie...Rosie...pls come back to me...

[Terryz_]

So Touching... Read liao wan to cry...

[flubberina13]

yup...call me silly but that was what happened while I was penning down the words...

Thank God for a reefer's words which cheered me up...

[Terryz_]

I not saying you silly... More of sentimental... hope you get over it soon... So you restarting your tank...
