Its a sad day in my reef.....

If you have seen my thread when I started it, you would definitely remember my Klausewitz's Blenny. I was looking at my tank last night and noticed a strange congregation of my CUC. Even the porcelain crab was in on the action, I looked closer, it was my blenny. I immediately tested everything, i got norms across the board. ph was 8.3, sg 1.025(normal never changes) temp was a little high for my liking but it was a warm day (tank temp 81.5 at time of death) I bought him after my tank cycled on July 8th '07(a month after exactly) He did get ich 2 weeks later, and developed a open sore on his side. He fought through it and lived and was healthy ever since, very fat, loved his greens. I dont know what happened. Let us all take a minute, and please could we have a moment of silence.......and remember: The Klausewitz!

I just have one question......WHY? What else could it have been? The only thing that i thought is i hope my Pistol Shrimp didnt get him, but where he was dead was opposite the pistols daytime cave.

He going to a new home to the reef in the sky, sorry for your loss.

Sorry for your loss, it does seem strange though.

Hang in there bro! It's one of those things where all we can say is "It just happens." We're all just a small part of the circle of life.

Best wishes

ya'll think it "just happened"? i was hoping so, I know that if something was really wrong, my corals would be the first to tell me
