Thanks I really appreciate the offer but I think I’m good. I had prepared 20 gallons of RO/DI water just a few days prior, which is an unusually large amount for me to prepare at once, but I guess timing for something like this to happen was right… So, after six hours of manual removal of...

I’m really only limiting things to manually picking out millions of dead brittle start fish and water changing. All I really can do at the moment with what I have. I had no idea this flat worm exit killed these guys so quickly. I dosed exactly as instructed and within 5 minutes, literally every...

Thanks, water changes right now are intended primarily to get as much of the flat work exit out. I have enough water to do another 100% tomorrow

Don’t have a spare tank, unfortunately. Or the apparatus to set up a night long auto water change. Have added prime, and will continue to add some through the night.

I see more starfish than sand tbh. I’ve done a 50% water change, and am going to do 50% more. I’ve siphoned out half the sand at this point. Mannnn I’m an idiot. Had no idea the brittle stars would be impacted like this.

That’s what I’m about to do. Likely will still miss half. This is the 5th cup I just pulled out. Can see thousand more in the tank… I might have just royally f’d up

10 gallon tank. Hit it with flat worm exit. I did not know this stuff killed micro brittle stars. I have millions. They are ALL dead. The rock is covered. The sand and corals are covered with dead brittle stars. Millions. I am picking out what I can… any advice?

So, all my bryopsis is gone. Week 1 I did a big water change and added 1 pill to my 10 gallon tank. Took about a week for me to start seeing it begin to die off. 2 weeks in, a good amount (let’s say 50%) had melted but I wanted to make sure it all was dealt with so I did a 25% water change at...

@Invictus, here are a few I think make sense to consider dropping into the list Acid Trips CB Bowser Bella Donna Butt Kissers Miami Vice Mind tricks Wolverines Yodas Pickachu BigBird and Kermit Oscar the Grouch Exosphere

Fair enough on AOIs. Of that list, I don’t think I’ve seen any of those at any recent swap, and don’t think we will. I’d love to see the rainbow rhinos or the WWC Illuminati pop up but don’t know if anyone in the club has them? Maybe? I think all those can be replaced with a better selection

I brought a pikichu frag a couple years ago to a swap and may have seen one other around that time. I don’t believe I’ve seen any since. Nice zoa for sure! AOIs are hit or miss. They either don’t grow or spread like weeds. They were super desirable a few years ago but have fallen off more...

I think AOIs should come off as well. There has been a few of these consistently at the past 3 swaps. There are others currently on the list that I don’t think I’ve ever seen at a swap (or frankly for sale locally recently), eg KH Sunbursts, White Velvets, etc. that could probably be replaced...

IMO having helped with check-in at the last 3 swaps and seeing what people have been bringing in, I think the zoa list could use some work. I think there are probably some Zoas on that list that very few (if any people) in the club have (or that I’ve ever seen at a swap), so they’re taking up...

There were a couple white zombie frags out there

Agree w/ @derek_SR and @MichaelB I think in terms of zoas we should take off Bozo’s Birthday, CoralExotic Bounce Zoa, Everlasting Gobstopper and magicians. I think we should add LSOH to ultra. And add Jedi mind tricks to bonus (I’ve seen these in some tank journals of members, but I don’t...

I have fairy fart zoas that also have oddly thicker and rounder lashes, so I think some Zoas just carry this trait I don’t think these bounce Zoas were anything more than a gimmick. These have always been standard people eaters to me personally. Seller probably had a few polyps show some...

None of the polyps appear to be bouncing from what I can tell from this pic, so I’d probably lean towards regular but happy for others to disagree

There was a G2 failure posted on one of the FB groups that I am in just yesterday. the G2 that failed was a replacement for the G1 that had failed prior.

@MichaelB was on my way today, but turned out I was headed about 15 miles the wrong way lol there’s two identical street addresses and didn’t realize this was out by Santa Cruz… I’ll see if I can make it out tomorrow, or this week but if anyone is definitely heading out; please do let me know

Anyone heading out to grab their nem, and also coming to the swap mind grabbing mine for handoff at the swap? Trying to get out there this week, but might be tough with my work schedule
