Seems like my poor tank goes through this every year; WRN: Work Related Neglect syndrom.

Interestingly enough, mine isn't even usually job related. I always go into summer planning several aquarium projects, then summer and summer time projects hit, and my tank ends up being on the bottom of my list. Don't think I've had a chance to do much more than glance in it, throw a little food in now and again, and add water. Poor thing has lots of algae issues, needs the front glass cleaned and empty frag plugs and rocks removed big time.

Was going to redo the sump system this summer, and then my wife aquired a new hobby, a friend gave her a horse. As a result my summer turned into having a barn built, fence building, finishing a tack room, putting up a corral, purchasing a horse trailer, and buying hay rather then getting anything done on my aquarium. At least she finally caught up to me on the $$$, so she can't say too much about what I spend on corals LOL!
 
No comment haha....:sad: most of my sps have suffered bad but every thing else is doing great.. I just might give up sticks all together I'm getting lazier by the minute any more lol...
 
HAHA oh yes mine does! LOL! I even set up a new tank to get that fun going again and it doesn't last long. :D
 
Mine does. I have algae right now because I havent done a water change in a month. or more...........:sad:
 
I haven't done a water change in longer than I can even remember at this point. All I do is top off, add my zeovit drops, and feed my fish. My corals are growing like nuts and hi algae problems since I bumped my mag up to 1500. I'm actually about to do a water change today tho.

I feel your pain! Sometimes between work and the wifes work schedule and having two kids, there just isn't enough time in a day to get it all done!:(
 
Man, I'm sure glad to know I'm not the only one (misery loves company ya know). I always have good intentions, but something else always seems to be more important.
