had a bit of a scare tonight.
Up to now i've been changing water for the baby bangaii's with water from my reeftank, but now i want to just use new water. Anyway, with my reeftank I usually dont bother matching the temperature because its a mid size tank (72 gallon) and adding 10 gallons of colder water doesnt really change the temp that much and doesnt seem to cause problems. So anyway, i mindlessly dumped about 3 gallons of water into the bangaii tank at about 10 degrees lower than the tank and BANG all the bangaii's were on there sides gasping!!! It was a panicky 10 minutes before they started to recover. Thankfully they all seem to be ok and didnt die from shock! I wont do that one again!
PS my male is pregnant again
...so soon i'll have somewhere around 90 bangaii cardinals!!!! ahhhh!
