      Late night lessons...

      So when in a rush trying to do a water change, clean frags off, reposition pieces you can make mistakes. Stop and take the time to consider the critters you have in the tank that may be hard to see. Especially at 12am-1am

      So after i finished dumping out my second 5g bucket I then realize....oh sh%#...I have (or had) a bunch of berghia in there.
      So on the 3rd bucket I slowly dump out the water getting down to the residual and bust out the uv flashlight..BAM 3 berghia walking around

      Not sure if I even dumped any or dumped them all.
      So 20+ berghia either gone or still tucked in the 4 porous rocks in the tank, I shall see. Well for now there's 3 and 1 or 2 eggcoils in a 1g with a aiptasia rock and airstone. They will be kept in there for growout/breeding for the time being .

      Sucks to screw up like that and be unsure. Who knows maybe the serpent stars and hermits ate some some.

      Bummer.
      There will not be much variety of menu where you sent them Burgia, which is a damn shame.
      Glad you still have broodstock.

      I'm thinking. It's possible I dumped some. For at contained was mainly water and scrapings of any coraline and stuff so minimal chance, but second bucket possibility some went into the ice plants.
      I'll be gradually removing rocks into the 1g. And hope many are tucked away let them.reproduce get some.egg coils hatched and grow out and sell them little by little to.keep.them alive and in the sd area.

      Well so far it's getting better I grabbed 1 of the rocks I spotted 3 or 4 more on it. Then 1 more about to munch down a baby aiptasia but I rudely interrupted him to put.him in the 1g with the food and friends
      I think I'm up to about 8 or 9 nudis and growing.
