I found one of my anthias dead with a claw mark on each side of his body in the exact same place, so I'm thinking mantis right? No one around here has a trap and I dont want to lose my remaining fish and I'm pissed. So what do I do? I take down the whole tank, pull out all the rocks, clean them of sand and debris, check all the holes and then place them in a 55g full of saltwater.
Three hours later, after cleaning all the sand, glass ect and a 80% waterchange. I filled it back up and now I'm waiting for the cloud to clear. Once it does I guess I'm going to fw dip anything with any kind of holes in it and see what I get. Right now I have no idea what to do and I've pretty much put the LFS at a loss as well.
If I come up with nothing even after I dip everything then what? I guess the only thing left would be to make my last fw tank into sw, put my fish inside and wait 3-4 months until the thing dies in there or comes out.
Oh yeah I forgot I shocked the hell out of myself today. I plugged something in with only one prong and when I tried to fix it ZAAAAPPP! Thirteen years in tanks and its the first time I've been shocked! What a rush I'll tell ya, but I couldn't really use my right arm for awhile LOL
