I have faith in you ill read your thread and see if I can give you some help that's what we are here for . And as far as contest shmontest you can take your pace there may be a winner but never a loser with a cool tank in the end. And once you have the success you will feel so awesome you'll want to dance Nellie in the streets. Just be careful the tang police may arrest you

Pretty good advise. It takes a while to realize that this is true. Something happens we throw everything at it that we have read. Take it slow and be consistent with good maintenance practices. Unfortunately nanos are less forgiving to mistakes.

I'm learning that the hard way my mistakes add up and consequences are massive.....

not massive at all, if anything learn from this and its not a loss but something gained:)

if you were to set your tank up now , provide the right temp and flow and walk away for 6mths , you would come back to an ecosystem , it would need some cleaning and tlc but none the less provided it had the basics of what it needs it would grow....it doesnt need us to do that it needs us to provide the things it needs when it needs them....try saying that all ten times fast lol

reefkeeping is like gardening in the fact that if you dont allow time for things to grow or adjust , things go backwards instead:)

I might just empty invertebrates and leave tank for a month no water changes...

Leave the inverts for now and go to weekly or bi weekly changes. A month may be too long.
