Looking good! The biggest thing I see (and hear) with people is that they start slacking with their regiment, ie: testing, water changes, etc. They also have a tendency to not spend as much time researching the addition of new fish, corals and inverts for compatibility, etc.

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 7 14.3%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 11 22.4%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 18.4%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 8 16.3%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.1%
  • I haven’t really considered this before
