I’m currently cycling my IM Nuvo 25 Lagoon. Taking it nice and slow after crashing a Nuvo 10. I’m also into HAM radio, but since we moved last summer I don’t have any antennas up to operate. So it got me thinking, what sorts of things do you do during a cycle to pass the time? Watch reef videos? Have other hobbies? Honey do lists?
 
I love videos on reef chemistry, so I watch all anything I can find. Loved some of those Macna presentations.

On the tank side, I make a fish list that will be compatible. Also research the growth patterns of the corals I'll be getting to plan coral placement, imagining where the future shadow areas will be and water flow.

And play golf!
