I’ve managed to not buy anything for my tanks since Black Friday

yeah; I could hold off on spending with a potential 6 foot upgrade in the pipe too!

Teach me your ways, oh great master (or do you prefer mistress?).

Hahaha I happily answer to either! We had a lot of parties in the fall then Christmas hit. I didn’t like having to pull money out of savings to keep up. I’m itching to do get something new though. . I’m currently trying to get someone to watch my kids so I can head down to the reefing USA event in Louisville this weekend. There probably zero chance my spending freeze makes it through that.

Pulling money out of savings? I want to party with you and your hubs!

A week ago I said no more reef spending for a while.

I somehow made it through a frag swap without spending. dude had a bounce, monti cap, something else, and two green slimers, he said $100 so he didn't have to take water home. That was a hard one to pass on. not to mention the pectinia, lobos, acans, torches...

I was actually having anxiety when I was spending money. much better saying no now, even on purple tangs. there will be more later.

Uglies are starting...

I was going to say "Me too!" but that's only true for corals... I have purchased test kits, additives, food, a couple of fish (4 or 5), and some CUC... No equipment or corals though! (except for the Hanna tester)

Why you calling your father duster ugly?

Why you calling your father duster ugly?

na, but the brown dusty business... I saw it on one coral yesterday, I'll take care of that soon enough.

Wouldn’t this be his mother?

I missed that! Good catch.

I don't know, my kids walk by and crop dust all the time. So do the dogs...

Sounds like a gastrointestinal or dietary issue.

I prefer the hot box.

I think that’s what my husband calls it… same thing. That fart was implied
