Oh! Another misstep I made! This was the worst hands down. Starting with a used dried up tank. It sprang a leak 6 months in and forced a complete tank switch up. So bad.

Is that an Adam's apple?

I liked the corals, just not the hitchhikers that came with them.
Well it is a guy so......

Brown palys….Sure they survive pretty much anything, but boy do they take over and no one wants them.

Why can’t my GMK or Stratospheres be like that?
Yeah I dont know either. All I know is that the uglier the thing is, the more my tank loves it and grows those.

I've been thinking about using that lol. Can you tell me why you regret it?
I had a really nice stable reef. Started dosing 5 mls of AB+ a day to help an ailing LPS. Nutrients sky rocketd, coral died, then I got cyano. Waited out the cyano with manual removal and nutrient reduction for 4 months. Finally it is gone.

GSP. BTA.

Tired of moving coral out of the BTA’s path when it decides to move every few months. Paranoid that when go on vacation in a couple of weeks he’ll move again and take out more torches.

Ooh. I trusted a guy with an amazing acro collection and didn't dip. I got aefws and it DECIMATED my acro dominated tank. This was 15 years ago. I'm still SO paranoid about dipping now. I'd sooner throw away a frag that an aefw came off of than try to treat it and put it in my tank. No thank you.

I also regret buying a school of lyretail anthias, that ate so much that they polluted the **** out of my water...and I regret trying to rescue an interruptus angel that was beyond hope.
