Wooster 200 Gallon Progress

Rougiem · 09-20-2005, 11:48 PM

I am starting a new thread in which I will post pictures and information about our tank.

Starting to move the students back to see the tank!

I had one student that wants to do her senior project on it (I would be happy to share what that is with anyone)! Perfect!

We lost the tang over the weekend and I believe the blue green chromis has suffered the same fate. You can see one of the pajama cardinals on the right side picture.

I need to do some reaquascaping since I just needed to get Craig's LR in our tank. All the corals he gave us are doing well!

Left side and right side pictures!

Cheers!

Looking great Rougie,,,glad to hear your student are into it. Too bad about the YT...have you checked into why it died?

I love the aqua scaping on the left side Rodge. Sorry to hear about the Tang and Chromis

... Ich?

It will all settle in due time...looking forward to the updates

There was a temp spike over the weekend that probably exacerbated the stress of moving. The Kole tang and the chromis were the last fish caught and were floated to temp and released within 45 minutes. All other livestock, fish, soft corals and inverts are doing well. There was no ich in my tank Kim, and these were the first fish added to the 200 gallon, so not ich related.

I see that the Red Skunk Cleaner Shrimp is doing fine, a good indicator of water quality!

Sorry to hear of your losses though!

Hey!! I'm one of the Wooster Students and I think that this is going to be alot of fun! I'm actually more interested in the microlife, sure the fish are cool looking, but I think there's more to learn about the little things that infect the fish and thrive in the enviroment. I can't forget that playing with microscopes is way fun! CYA!!!!

Come on over to my house (bring a scope) and I'll give you a gill scraping to look at!!
