Long boring update
Not sure how much longer the Red Sea tank will be as it’s time to walk away. I loved it and enjoyed while it lasted. December 24th at 1800 it will be 2 years then I will have a better time frame when I take it apart.
Made many great friends and learned so much.

Out of 2,362 post I will never forget and is the reason I have some dream fish I thought I could ever keep. Thank You @GoVols TSM learned real fast what I like.
Thanks, Fadi

I want to call @justingraham in here too.

He lives close to Crabby and knows all about TSM Corals for live stock.

I may retire this thread sooner then the tank. We will see and take it one day at a time.

My question is will you all follow me on a New Journey CRABBY’S FIN-TAZ-TIK reef if I start a new build thread for a planet aquarium 215 gallon tank?

Crabby,
You're a good friend to all of us. Went back a few pages, your reef looks great!!

Did your CBB come from TSM?
I've seen that Ray sells corals as well, do you feel like his corals live up to the quality of his fish?

I'll try to follow, one of the owners of PA, used to be an owner of Oceanic Systems.

Seen a couple of custom PA's tanks at the Aquatic Critter, they sure look to be well built.

@GoVols the CBB didn’t come from TSM. TSM gets fish to eat so well I figured it wouldn’t eat Aiptasia. TSM has some nice coral to pic through but not as rare as fish. Don’t have to worry about parasites on coral as with fish.
Nothing is displayed great as it’s mostly online.
The love and care is unbelievable

Happy to see your tank coming back around.

That does make sense, good thinking on your end.

Think my hardships are in the rearview mirror, but holding off until after the new year to add the new corals (sticks) that I would like to bring in.

It backfired and CBB doesn’t touch aiptasia anyway lol.

Hard to old off what we want vs what the tank wants at a giving time. We want to rush and get back to what it was to fast. Love seeing your experience and self control and waiting.

Took a rock full of Aiptasia to lfs. He is breeding Nudis and needs them for food. As he was breaking the rock he found my missing Fathead Dendro’s that been missing for a few months. They fell of the ledge and ended up in a hole in the rock.
