Default Never bring your wife fish shopping unless she is like mine

So I made the suggestion to my wife who is completely in love with our
new 210 gallon reef tank that we go to J&L and pick up some fish for the new tank that has been running for a week. Now this could have been a good thing. Pick up a couple fish maybe one or two corals for the tank. Instead it was very, very bad. And below is a list of the end result.

20 green chromis
1 flame angel
3 lyretail anthias
4 banggai cardinals
1 mandarin goby
2 purple firefish
3 yellow tangs
1 six line wrasse
2 sexy shrimp
2 cleaner shrimp
1 maxima clam
1 orange monti digitata
1 green monti digitata
1 green star polyps
1 yellow leather


Total damage after 30% off

482.79$

I should point out at this point that the tank was seeded with arag alive from carib sea, already matured media in my FB 900 fluidized bed filter and I am using a large canister filter from another tank I am renovating that has been running for god knows how long. So hopefully bio shock will be low.

Lesson learned : Next year think twice befor bringing my wife shopping with me for fish. As she tends to want to go overboard just a little or maybe alot, you be the judge.

My tank is listed in the tank journal if any one wants to look.

Thanx

Sean
