A Fishkeeper's Worst Nightmare
Үй жануарлары мен аңдар
When disaster strikes... 😥
The bottom tank of our double reef system leaked last month. We were fortunately able to save the fish and the corals, but the reef - which had grown in over the past 10 years - is destroyed.
Losing this reef felt like losing a pet. While the animals are all safe and that's what really matters, being forced to tear apart an ecosystem you've spent years carefully and meticulously maintaining is definitely a tough pill to swallow. It hurts for now, but it's also an opportunity to create something bigger and better than before - so stay tuned!

Glad you were able to save all the inhabitants!
Thank you!
You’re breaking my heart. It would be very wonderful to see your journey through the years with this reef. I understand your pain and I am so very sorry for you to be experiencing this. I had a nano reef set up for a little over five years and it had hairy mushrooms, Kenyan tree coral and a rescued yellow goby. I came home one day to the tank completely empty. The bottom seam gave out. I couldn’t say anything and the pain is still pretty fresh to my memory. Just know that there are always more opportunities in the future to heal that pain and to pour your heart into a new reef. Thank you for sharing this sad time and I look forward to seeing your past experiences with this reef. I also look forward to your future experiences in creating a new reef. Thank you, -Amber

Sorry for your loss.
It looked phenomenal, 10 years of dedication down the drain is nothing to sneeze at. I can only hope you find consolence in building a new.
