Well the little lined blenny is history. I should have just left him be in the sump. The hawkfish is gonna history too, as soon as I can get him out of the tank. Stupid fish.
The gramma is all healed up and ready to go. I still can't figure out what he had. It was like a non-fungusy looking fungus. Not cottony. Oh well, eventually I'll find a pic of it and figure it all out. Just as long as it doesn't come back or attack all the other fish.
So, well into my third hour of picking caulerpa off the rock in my tank (oh whee.), once again my mind was drawn to my reasoning for sticking with a hobby that was driving me insane. Every 2-3 weeks I see my corals floundering in a sea of caulerpa (seriously, tonight I found two buried frags) and then I have to pull half the damned rock out and scrub it because it drives me nuts. And I don't even make a dent with the pile I pull out, it still looks like crap. Then, invariably, there is the big algae bloom that follows it about a week later. Oh whee. The fun never stops.
Well its gonna stop soon. I'm seriously thinking about powerwashing the whole bloody works (a suggestion from a fellow reefer who figured 'what the heck?'). I mean I can't keep doing this over and over again. Its wearing me down, times like tonight I just want to sell the whole bloody system. But how could I do that when I just bought a Tunze 6060 (I couldn't help it, it was such a great deal :P). Just you wait till I get that thing in there, maybe it will blow the caulerpa off the rocks ;)

What happened to with the hawkfish?
The hawkfish is still in there. Unfortunately I think he will still be taking a trip back to the LFS as my love of little fish is greater than my love for the hawkfish.
