Default Reasons I really hate reefing!

So as the title says.... here we go

Reason number one: Every thing I do is wrong (feels like being married... but it cost me more)

Reason number two: All of the right things I manage to do cause more problems. (see number one)

Reason Number Three: Alage... oh algae.

Reason Number Four: Where the hell DID my peppermint shrimp go?

Reason number five: Now my kids won't be able to afford college.

Reason number six: Aiptasia

Reason number Seven: Aiptasia X

Reason number eight: More aiptasia!

Reason number nine: Complete and utter confusion... you know the more I learn the less I know

Reason number ten: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

But then again, someday it will all be worth it

I remember with my first nano getting so excited when I saw my first aiptasia. I thought I hit the jackpot with a free anemone! lol

Mine was the opposite, I almost tear down my tank when I got pineapple sponges outbreak. I thought they were pests.

I did the panic what is this alien worm looking creature in the tank and will it harm anything like most of us have done

Scariest thing I have found as a SW hobbyist is the empty wallet syndrome...
