Have you ever regretted removing something from your tank?

Maybe it was a piece of equipment or frags you sold, or maybe it was a fish you decided to rehome.

Have you ever regretted removing something from your tank? What was it and why?

I regret selling off a bunch of 10 yr old cycled pukani, looking back I should've kept some bigger chunks of it

Removing all my rocks to clean it. Messed up my aquascape, and it was a hassle trying to get it fixed again

I used to have a solar fairy wrasse in my 75 that I absolutely loved. Unfortunately he started picking at my LPS so I moved him over to a 125 that was mostly SPS and softies and only had a few fish. I had him in a tank with a partial lid for months without issue, but unfortunately he jumped out within a week of being in the new tank.
