Zotalpha Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 So long story short I was on day 2 of a 2 week trip to Florida when I found out that the silicon on my tank had sprung a leak and drained 30 or 40 gallons into my living room. I walked my brother through setting up a old 55 I had in the garage but its not pretty, a lot of white skeletons... That being said probably 40% of the coral is still at least somewhat alive. its not pretty ugly and has some algae but if you can come get it its all yours. fish (that are left) yellow tang 2 clowns coral not sure whats alive and whats not tons of zoas torch frogspawn green slimer purple monti green monti red planet acans plate my nem split so now there is two a ton of other stuff, its not pretty but free is a good price. I would definitely not take it straight to your display so if you have room in a QT tank come and get it. i would prefer to give it all to one person and then drain it. im keeping all the equipment and rock. some pic of what it looked like before i left as you can see i was fighting an algae outbreak which was intensified after the transplant.

Taylorhardy1 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I've got a qt that would house all of this nicely! I could come by in a few hours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald525 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Wow sorry to hear this ! That’s my worse fear with a glass tank. Why does this happen when you’re out of town ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Very sorry to hear. That is a major bummer - not only do you have the water damage but lose livestock as well. Hopefully Taylor is able to rescue what is left. Good luck with the cleanup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotalpha Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Thanks, I have a feeling that somebody got a little aggressive with my magnet cleaner... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylorhardy1 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 No thank you! Everything is already opening up in the qt. Like I said, definitely let me know when you get the new tank up and going and I'll send a bunch of corals your way! Should have great luck keeping most of this alive! I will be posting whatever I decide not to keep on here for free again. Keep your eyes peeled everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
