Preuss has a nice new 12 gallon edge on display with a really nice jawfish in it. I think it looks cool in a tank with tall dimensions.

Bahahaha! I had a aiptisia killing frenzy a few days ago. I killed 5 in that little tank, one was even growing on the cheato! Even though I have a melter I used good ol' Kalk. (it was the water change day so I wouldn't raise the ph too much. ). Here's a fun fact for you all, I do a 2 gallon water change every week. Oh and an update: the second jawfish that was in QT ended up dying :( so I am on the look out for another jawfish. This weekend.

Your water change is the same amount as my whole tank! :silly:

Well good luck to everyone. I am out. It's a long story but to make it shorter my second jawfish died for no reason... He just stopped eating one day and died 4 days later... I really made me sad and stressed me out. I forgot how much you have to keep up with a new tank, and my husband is on 3rd shift right now for the next month and a half so it makes it impossible to get in there in the day time. Just too much right now. Maybe next year.
Best of luck to all I you in it.

:tear: I'm so sorry, I was really enjoying your build and you've got a sweet little tank there. Sorry about the jawfish, sometimes that happens and we'll never know why.......Good luck with the tank Heidi.

That's so sad Heidi. Sorry for your losses :(

Thanks guys. Yeah maybe next year since my husband will be doing normal hours etc. I am keeping all the stuff so for sure I will set this up again some time. "Outage" time for me is like being a single mom of 4 kids. I am having a hard enough time keeping up with the big tank but have been buying stuff to automate it little by little. Best of luck for all those still in it, and thanks for the kind words guys!

Very sorry to hear about the fish.
Don't give up hope! You could still add a sump. It might make things more manageable.
Did you check with the place you got the fish from? Maybe they will stand behind their fish?
You still have a cool *** tank, that you built no matter what!

Awww... http://www.gifmix.net/smileys/sad-smilies/23.gif I was really getting into this build. Do you plan on leaving the tank up, or are you taking it down completely Heidi?
