    I still haven't changed the title of the thread. She doesn't comprehend that the build is never done. She's pretty much over the hobby already. At least we don't fight like we used to.
    The only hope I have at justification is taking the orange Oc pair out and putting them in the 90 down at the shop.

    Thanks Cheryl. My RP frags are going vertical and building mass at the base. I have a huge LED build to get done but honestly am a little scared of changing what is working now. LOL

    Whoa. It's been nearly a year since I posted anything to this thread.

    The tank is still running, though some times I don't know how or why. There was a time in my life when my mind went on temporary leave and I didn't care about anything at all. 5, maybe 6 months of 0 maintenance on the system. No water changes, 2 part sporadically refilled, etc. etc. The only thing I did do was feed the fish at least once a day.

    I've been working hard the last couple months to bring it back around. I'm going to show you a pic that was taken with my phone about a week ago.

    Yes that is two yellow tangs in the tank. The small one was in the 90 gallon at my store. It is my wifes favorite fish so it came home. Soon there will be a tank big enough for one or the other but in the meantime I keep a lot of New Era marine grazers on hand.
