gahhhhhhh

So, I swear, my tank is cursed (the 75g one). A few months back, I lost all my fish except 1 to Brook. The tank was fallow for around 10 weeks. That should have been plenty of time for that to take its course, which it did. I learned my no QT lesson. I restocked, with QT of all inhabitants for 4 weeks to make sure there weren't signs of ich or anything else. Well, I just put in my flame angel which had been in QT for 4 weeks and just about an hour ago noticed he had ich. I just tore all the rock out (90-100 pounds) to catch the freaking thing as well as a tiny chalk bass and bangaii cardinal to put in a 10g QT that I've had up that I dropped to hyposalinity.

Now, how the heck does that happen? Obviously there was ich in the tank somewhere, it got there somehow. Apparently I'm going to be going more than 4 weeks. So, because I'm a big baby I am not venturing into drugland to go to Walmart to get a bigger tub for my magnificent foxface and lunare wrasse. That has to wait until tomorrow as well as trying to catch my yellow headed sleeper goby. :devil:

Oh and the lunare wrasse decided he was none too happy with my hand in the tank so he decided to bite me, so I screamed like a little girl and went runnning like it could chase me. Frustrating, but I guess the good thing that comes out of it is I can rearrange my rock when the goby out not worrying I'm going to smash him or mess up his tunnels. That and I do believe I caught it early so now it'll almost be like I have 6 tanks, maybe more depending on any aggression issues with the Lunare in a smaller tank without his sand bed.

Thanks, he was in QT for 4 weeks, I'd just added him to my DT from QT. I didn't FW dip since I freak out about stressing them out.

Thank you, yes it is one of those days. All I know is I am so glad that I had the sense to buy completely new stuff to be used for the Potter's Angel I just got. Who is in his own QT and will remain that way. He's also not going in that tank either. I seriously think it's cursed.

yes, dang thing. If I didn't like him so much I might have to poke him or something lol (I'm kidding for those that don't know).
