The weekend of fail has begun.....

Are most of these sudden deaths happening in overstocked tanks?

Lol, the guitar is fine and the stand had internal structure but the skeleton was just anchored to the outside paneling instead of having cross braces. It was store bought

Hmmm...the EBJD that passed had been moved out of the tank and into a 20L solo for a week or so. I had a hunch that the larger EBJD had bullied him to the point that even with meds he couldn't fight off whatever got him (parasite or pH). He/she was the same size as when I got it 4 months ago where as the bigger one is closing on 3 inches very quickly.

How long did you have the 125 on the stand? How old was it?

 

[Cecropia]

It was on the stand less than a month. Stand was purchased from a local lfs.

Purchased USED btw. I actually like the cinder block stand better for some odd reason lol

Looks nice draped with a fine curtain. Just upgraded my sump from 29 gallons to 50 due to the height limit being removed (sump is now next to the stand instead of under it).

Old stand and new one. Tank is still a work in progress. trying to figure out how to add some color without adding more fish or plants (jag will dig them up)
