It is 1 month now since the move and a couple of things had happened. Firstly, I lost a couple of live stock during the immediate days following the move, as well as a couple of weeks later (I doubt it was due to the move).

I lost my Frogfish, my Leaffish and one Chromis. The Leaffish was in bad shape before the move - I think it got some kind of bacterial infection since it looked like it was molting but looking like that for 3 weeks - and refusing to eat the whole time.

The Frogfish - yeah well, I think the stress was maybe a bit too much.

And the Chromis just disappeared without a trace...

A couple of weeks later I had my Ocellaris Clownfish disappear, followed by my Purple Firefish. I think something must have either caught them or scared them to death, since they were in perfect health the day before. I caught my Purple Tang becoming belligerent towards all my other fish, so I decided it was time to move the aggressor to it’s own clan - the Aggressive FOWLR tank.

To help combat the flatworm outbreak I encountered in my FOWLR tank, I added a couple of wrasses - a Yellow Wrasse, a Coris and a Dragon Wrasse. It seems like they are keeping the population down but they do not eat the brown flatworms - only the yellow ones.

I also got a snowflake eel for the aggressive tank. I added lots of macro algae (seaweed) to that tank to make it look more colourful.

I tried my hand at a Pulsing Xenia - it looked fine for two days then melted away overnight. I have no idea why it would have died but I know I will not try another one soon.

Since I am battling high nitrates in the FOWLR tank (probably due to the lack of LR - I only have 15kg in a 400l tank), I took a ball of cheato from my main tank and placed it in the sump of the FOWLR tank, and added 2 x 24W T5 lights. Hopefully this will also help seed the pod population.

The CO2 bottle I used to have got deprecated in favour of a new Tunze CO2 system with solenoid. At least now I am automated again.

I have fixed all the wiring in the fish room so everything is easily accessible. It took some time but it is done. Oh yeah - I also upgraded my lighting in my main tank - I added a 4 x 54W Quad T5 fitting, so I now have 8 x 54W T5 lights in there. This is to help the clams out as well as the Acropora I purchased.
