I am sorry for your back woes. That sucks. But alive and kicking is good. And a slightly smaller tank with smaller hardy peaceful critters with smaller water changes is also more manageable, in many ways. No shame in trying something new. Either way we are here for the journey friend.

Sry u had to see all that coraline on the glass i can feel your OCD tremors all the way cross town ;Hilarious

That was an earthquake in rhode island. I get the shakes in the basement mostly. Reef is maturing. Those colonies are getting big!

Hey saltaholics! My medical stuff goes on getting some injections upper and lower spine so feeling good there is a plan.
Tank has been untouched tested 6 months...... I've added some stuff all ca mg etc based on coral clues past demand then cut it by .5
Most I've done is pull gha 3 times from display.
After 2 plus years going nuts worrying fighting gha just walking away not doing a thing killed it in about 5 months and rocks are barren and turning purple nicely. Have 3 patches of red slime but they are fading as well.
Got a few pics thru the coraline covered glass @RichtheReefer21 came close on the filter coral beauty picture. Smart mean little bugger I swear I heard laughter
