Things just seem to be going from bad to worse.
I am on holiday now in Bali and Komodo and my wife's niece is watching the house. I don't know how she did it but she managed to break my beautiful new Montipora into pieces. To make matters worse she threw the pieces in the trash. After finding out about this I told her to but them back in the tank. Hopefully an hour out of water wasn't too long but it probably was. I am so upset about all this cant begin to tell you.
Also my Powder Brown got sick and spread it to my other fish. A dozen have already died (many Anthias, Harlequin Tusk, Powder Brown Tang, etc) .
I really feel like breaking down the tank and giving up at this point. I'm so discouraged right now.
On a more positive note, I went snorkeling in Komodo yesterday and it was mind blowing. The coral was outstanding. I saw enormous patches of Xenia and Leathers, 2 foot clams, Acropora everywhere, Acans, Blastos, Sunflower coral, Montipora, Plates, huge red and yellow Anemones, sea fans, and a huge variety of fish. I still can't believe how good it was.
