Just start calling your parents "roommates" .... It makes you feel better and people around you think that you live in your own house!

Lol it's not a matter of what anyone thinks. It's that they drive me nuts

Teach your fish some tricks

Jump Willy Jump!

Hahahaha, oh man. Well, could try replacing all your livestock with ultra and rare pieces. That's always fun and wallet draining. Or if you've just need to part with money to make you feel better, I do take donations in the form of money transfer (email preferred).

Whenever I feel like this I have to stop myself and get my head back into the minutiae of reefing which, seemingly counter productive, means going hands off for a while. Start letting those newly acquired corals fill in and mature. Focus on pimping out the water quality, lighting and flow to tweak growth rates and colour. You've got all the bits needs to turn your reef into a work of art (from the sounds of it), so use those to paint an epic picture.

Here's a challenge for ya... Let's see your tank at TOTM-ready quality by the end of the summer?

Lol there's no way my corals could fill in my tank by the end of summer

Then you obviously still have room to buy more coral... :razz:

But that's only fun for one day. Then I just lose interest in that coral cuz it grows so slooooooow

Hahahaha, buy some xenia. Grows fast and aftermath will keep you occupied.:razz:

You'll be surprised. Give your corals some hands off time and it'll start to grow faster. I have a blue/purple tabling-branching colony that, once I started to leave it alone, just took off in terms of growth. It grows about 1+" per branch every month and makes about 3+ new branches per branch per month. It's freaking nuts. You could probably sit there and watch it grow.

Tweak your growth and get it to fill in!

Lol is this what your doing? :mrgreen:
