I have never seen my Sps do that... I can actually see new growth every day lol... Guess I should have hooked my doser up long ago...:(

Don't stress man you seem like you are very good at what you do, I am sure you will be fine. Who knows this might just open the door for you to start something of your own. GOOD LUCK!

 

[ronnie]

That sucks man.

Maybe it is time to go solo and start the TL Bullit Built Tank series :D

You're amazing at building tanks - I'm betting you could do well at it for a business. Or does LV not have a huge aquatic presence?

 

[shred5]

That stinks dude and sorry..
Yea I know how it feels... My job has been on the rocks for over two years now. We took pay cuts, then 6 months later got cut to 4 days a week, then 6 months later we got cut to two weeks on and two weeks off.
One of the guys quit so now I am back to full time with pay cut but things still don’t look good, I am still waiting for the day they just say screw it. I work for a company that mainly is a family business so I am low very low on the totem pole.

I ended up taking down allot of my tanks, my prop tanks, breeding tanks, and going with a 40 gallon all in one for now to save cost. Amazing the amount of electricity a tank uses. I am dieing right now to set up a breeder’s tank again and I really want to set up a azoox tank and a larger reef.
Down sizing aint so bad, at least it keeps you in the hobby and not out all together which I did not want to happen.

Sorry to hear about your job. I was in the same boat as you Troy. Just hang in there bro, something will come up. With me I am lucky my family owns a restaurant wich is bad shape right now with this economy. But its paying the bills. If it wasn't for me loosing my job and my family I wouldn't be able to get back and focus on what I love (music). Just hang in there. You have a good head on your shoulders. You know that saying when one door closes, another one opens . And even better then the last. :)


By the way, Love your new tank.
You can always sale your stick to someone that will give it back to you when things get better.

Troy,

so sorry to hear the news. I think its time for you to go pro. I have watched a bunch of your builds and with the right funding you could give atm a run for their money

good luck

Bob
