welll i went to lfs gotr them to test my water 2, theres a little ammonia which i think i found the cause of a dead snail it absoloutly reeeked!

i saw the coral beauty flipping into it today which i thought was odd, and the snail hadnt moved in a few days, today i found out why...

im gonna do a water change, rearrange rock for new look, and contemplate wether to get another fish anytime sooon.

on a lighter note my interview went well got asked back for a second intervieew so 20% all fish, live rock, water everything in marine and the whole gardebn centre infact if i get the job which i hope i do!!

after theyve acclimitised il get some pictures my free trigger they couldnt catch so il be getting it next week or in a few weeks!

Shibby, I think you got your coral beauty way too soon. They require very good quality water, and stable conditions and are NOT recommended for new tanks. Oh, if you're after a needle, you could use one of those needles from those injet refill kits; you can easily sharpen it if you want using a dremel

 

[shibby]

ermm cheers for that ... bit long ago now, been through the learning curb and everything, and no longer need a needle.

u live n u learn.

Yeah, dead snails STINK. One of my old turbos died a while back and man the smell was atrocious
