That's me
I just keep hangin' on, stupidly attached to my regimen of maintenance and battling the baddies, hoping that one day it will again look nice and my corals will thrive once more

Isn't it a fun hobby ?
Kinda reminds me of the Tom Hanks movie The Money Pit

I just don't think of what it costs to feed the horse and I am ok

So what you guys are saying is this new build is not going to be my horse that I ride into the sunset with . . .

This is my take on these horses.
Been riding mine for over 20 years


Very wild horse , very easy, but still very hard to tame the horse.
Gets worse the more you try new innovative things even though the horse is getting easier to ride.
Like any other wild and unpredictable animal.
Keep it simple and you will gain a friend for life riding together.

Well, I think of it as a rodeo. He who stays in the saddle the longest wins....

Well - as the mother of 2 daughters that show-jump their horses competitively, I say bring on the coral because no amount of money I spend on my tank could even come close to the cash we throw into the horses!! I used to think there was no better way to relax than by brushing horse and feeding it some treats - but now I find it just as relaxing to stare at my tank and over feed my sun corals!
