Part 2
took the eel out and put it in a 30 on the basement.
got rid of all my FW fish in my 120, and set it up for salt.
Thanx to Dirk, eel may have a new home soon.

Finally, 30Gal water change in the 125, and skimmed 2Gal of OOOHHH for 3 days. Things are looking better.

Big "E" has a new home


Thanks to the great people at the Minnesota ZOO, big "E" the eel has a wonderful home.
It will be in a holding tank for some time, and then its off the the REEF!
