I'm happy now. After turn around from 6 months ago. Lesson learned don't feed lots if the tank can't naturally support the nutrient input. Since cutting back everything has rebounded.

And happy happy happy. (Duck dynasty)

Happy enough to gather more gear for the upgrade. Can someone say bubble king.

I am happy enough. I do have to deal with the occasional zoa eating nudi or aiptasia, but overall I am happy to be back in the hobby and most corals are growing. Now if I can only figure out why my Alk is always so low and how much I actually have to dose to get it back up.

Sadly, if I add new fish they die a few days after. Yet all my current livestock live n swim just fine..... Corals great, WC every second week, levels bang on....

Sadly confused and not happy

Sad because my tank looks like arse and my colonies are dying one by one. Meh because I have no time to deal with it and frankly I don't know what I could do even if I knew what was going on. I often feel like I've hit a wall with this hobby. I was hoping a bit of a hiatus might help but so far its just showing me that I am going to have less and less time for this hobby as time goes by.

Some days I'm happy & some days I'm sad.
Because sps takes months to color up but can brown out almost overnight it's always a roller coasters of emotions. In all my years of keeping sps I have yet to have a time when everything in the tank is all happy at the same time since the corals come from different regions of the globe and different ocean depths. That said there are still enough "happy" pieces to give me a small grin most days but not today.
