Ok so there is a main thread like this in the Lounge that covers all things random, but I thought it would be fun to have one specifically for our Marine & Brackish area. Basically works like this;
Each poster will answer a previous "Have you ever", and in the same post, ask another "Have you ever". If you choose to answer one from a few posts back, make sure to quote it so we can all keep up. It can get pretty funny when people start admitting to certain things... Just remember this is all for fun, so if someone admits to something you don't agree with, don't start a lecture, leave it be, we all make mistakes, have stupidity leaks, and bloopers. And for most of them, we learned our lesson and can laugh about it now. I will start.

Have you ever accidentally siphoned one of your fish?

Yes one of my clowns jumped out last week and I didn't realize it until it was to late.

Have you ever been moving live rock and dropped a piece and cracked the glass?

Yes and my waters went from temperate to "Hot Springs". was with a digital guage I was testing. Luckily when I was feeding the fish, I had my hand in the waters and knew immediately that the temp was wayy too high, so Ice packs were tossed in. All inhabitants survived, were just a little sluggish and breathing heavy for the first day. I learned to test things like that in empty tanks from then on.

Have you ever gotten a free fish that you were intending to purchase because you decided to put the employees in their place when it came to proper husbandry?
