January 2019 work tempo really picked up and I made a decision to start selling my corals and go fish only so it could be easier for the family to take care of the tank while I’m gone during field training events. After selling off a couple prized possessions I realized I couldn’t do it. I equally love the fish and coral part of the hobby and will just need to mentor the wife and oldest son on reef husbandry in my absences.
