tiger-tail cuc MIA???

[AWD]

I bought a tiger-tail cuc two-weeks ago and I haven't seen of him/her since. It was at night when I put him in. The parameters are all very good. Salinity-1.021, Ph-8.15, alk 2.5 meq/l.

Any ideas?

You'd be surprised.... I've gone more than 2 weeks at a time w/o seeing mine either, and then find it smack in the middle of the sandbed again.

Unless you see threads of his tissues floating by, don't assume he is dead.

I have had 2 tigers. The first one I had was maybe 2-3". I thought he died and so I bought a new one. I found him a few weeks later hiding in the LR crevices. I traded him in after that.

I also have a 10" cuke and after going on vacation then moving my tank, I never saw him again. I'm thinking that one is for sure dead. My water was looking really funky after I came back. Nothing died though.

Goodluck with your cuke

I thought my impatiens was dead. Then I moved the tank to florida, and spotted it a month after that. I know I didn't see him when breaking down the tank either.

Thanks for the comforting comments. I paid $30 for it. In opinion that is alot of money.

Out of curiocity where are you from Benmatson? I'll believe you.

Right now I'm in Pensacola, Florida at the Naval Air Station. I'm in week 22 of a 13 week training program with atleast 12 more weeks to go. (Let me know when you stop buying it.) Really. So, do you do water changes from the Great Salt Lake?
