Well before september I was all about SPS. Water quality, lighting , flow you name it I wanted it all. Then September 2nd I was out of town for work , came home on the third to find 19/21 fish dead from a marine velvet outbreak. Now dont freak on the fish 10 of them were blennies and gobies so no bioload. So for 7 weeks I sat fishless and it sucked. It was so boring looking at corals and shrimp. So after talking to the wife she said maybe its time to scale back and enjoy a tank for what it is. Lets enjoy our fish and the tank and not worry so much about everything else. Of course we will still do water changes and stuff like that but no more dosing and no more SPS and lets make it budget friendly so that if something breaks we dont have to worry about breaking the bank to replace something. I was impressed and said lets go with it why not.
