Ugh unfortunately non of the stars except the blue linkia made it. Even the fate is grim for the blue. He hasn't moved from the same rock he's been on for the past day

Your new aquascape looks great Mike! I am sorry about the starfish, I've only had luck with the sand sifting stars or the brittle stars. How is the purple tang getting along with your more established tangs?

Thank you. Means a lot. I hated the original layout. But I think I am finally content. Lots of room for sticks. :) the purple tang is doing fine and very brave. There was only a couple of days of aggression. The mama goldflake was the main aggressor. The purple tang found out quickly that she could easily avoid her by swimming through small crevices to escape. They are all best friends now.

I think I need to make a trip to the office and do some trading soon. Those look nice.

Thanks guys! Pretty excited! Some good news is that the blue linkia has finally moved from its resting spot after 2 weeks. Keeping my fingers crossed on this guy. All fish are doing well even though I have ich in the system. Only the blue tang will show signs.

Oh man ick is a never ending story lol. Have you tried focus, metro, and some vitamins? That combo has always done wonders for me.

Overdue update. The blue linkia is still alive and well! The ich is under control and so it looks like I will be living with it. :/ only the blue tang will show signs once in a while. I do have a few fish in qt. It's been about a week in and they are doing well. Keeping my fingers crossed.
