Suffered first loss

[redstang]

Pretty sure anyways. When we got back from vacation the tail spot blenny was looking thin to me. I fed heavily for a few days and it was eating. Even yesterday morning I watched it eat but not as much or as enthusiastically as normal. Since then there's been no sign of it :boo:. Bound to happen I know but I was hoping all of them would last at least years not months. Tank is just over a year old and bought the blenny last August.

So, trying to decide if I should replace it with another or try something different. Fish all got along great, even the 6-line. The 6-line makes me think that another tail spot might be the best bet though as it's already used to one. Does that logic work or am I way off?

This sucks though. Loved that fish. Always out and about perching and people watching.

Hate to hear that bud. Give it a few days at least. He may turn up. The Solarinsis Wrasse I had went into hiding and it was a good week and a half before he started coming out. Sometimes you just got to give them some time I think. Hoping for the best.

Yeah, it's never been the hiding sort though. Never know though!

Well, the tail spot didn't show back up so I made a run up to Pure Reef and picked up a bicolor blenny. He/she/it has already found the same bolt hole home that the tail spot loved so much and ate immediately.

The dreaded 6-line has completely ignored it. Beautiful fish that my daughter immediately asked if we could get once she saw it. On an even brighter note it was the cheapest of the fish we were looking at. Hopefully this one likes to people watch as much as the tail spot.

Nice pick up. Hope it thrives for you bud.
