Well for thanksgiving break I went home for a week and left the tank under the care of my aunt to feed the fish, I was worried sick the whole time but thankfully I only lost both my colonies of Pink Birdsnest could have been worse though! But on the bright side being home I was able to pick up some sick frags for a good price!

Picked up
5p Electric Oompa Loompas (previous colony melted during move to Tallahassee)
3p Utter Chaos (previous frag never opened and melted soon after the move)

So I successfully restocked everything that I lost during the move, except copious amounts of coralline algae, but I'l be patient with that! And Boy these utter chaos's are freaking bright!!!!!

 

[PaulKreider]

Cutting some frags today! Let me know if interested in anything!

 

[PaulKreider]

My cleaner wrasse decided to go carpet surfing, RIP, no more Wrasses for a while!

 

[revhtree]

Sorry!

Finally made up my mind, I will be leaving the hobby for a while. Its too much work for a college student to keep up and being able to not travel home and such is a big factor. I may set up a small tank when I move into my new house over summer but that's up in the air. Over the next couple months I will begin selling off all the livestock and eventually most equipment.

Let me know if you're interested in any of my livestock. It will all be for sale eventually.

It's a hard decision but I need to get everything else in my life straightened out fist.

Awe hate to hear this.
