shaywood Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Nothing like throwing money away I bought a new cleaner shrimp today. Within 10 minutes I walked by my tank to see him hanging out of the mouth of a pajama cardinalfish. What a hobby. Guess I could have spent the money gambling.

At least you know your cardinalfish is healthy and no longer hungry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2R2 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Unless the shrimp was a carrier of a disease that shrimp are immune to, then the PJ will die with a full belly!!! R2R2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I finally got 3 fish to live in my tank for more than a few days! My solution - cover the tank! Nothing like having 3 fish jump out the first day they are in the tank! That smarts to the tune of about $100 Oh yah, then there was that time i changed lights and tanks and lost ALL my SPS and my most prized LPS corals.

Nyles Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 LOL money.... if you lack it, don't get involved with this hobby. I consider this hobby a true test of my patience, it will get the best of ANY reefer sooner or later, I just consider it a challenge and keep pushing, oh and don't believe everything you read on the forums... LOL... that could cost you money to, sometime just taking a step back and rethinking helps alot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
