So I thought I got super lucky and found a free coral encrusting on my turbo snail. It is very beautiful and blue. My wife and I were very excited.

Turns out its blue cloves or blue symposium. (L2spell)

Wife, "There are no good freebies in this hobby."

Oh no!!!! I almost did that to my royal gramma once. :(

I thought about posting a warning sign in the tank about rotating machinery, but my fish don't follow directions well as it is. They would just ignore it.

Just get a steel beam or 2 to add some support. I think this guy was going to reinforce his Ikea so it could hold a 40B

You might want to get a truck instead of using a car to transport it though.
