Default Ugh, do things ever go good?

Do things ever go well for any length of time when it come to reefing? This past year and a half has been battle after constant battle. Quite frankly i'm starting to get into quite a downer with the hobby. After the broken sagging 90g, i lost most of my fish after the move. Then i was greeted by a bryopsis outbreak that lasted about a year, got that all cleared up, just to set up for the next challenge; Dinoflaggelates. Do things ever just get better and go well? My experience has been seting up for disaster after disaster. And im running out of ideas. Ive been super dilligent with water changes and chemistry. I use premium salt. RO. I'm now trying to stop waterchanges to let nitrates build up. That doesnt seem to be working. And now its at the point where i am going to start loosing my corals and anemones. Its even bad enough that its choking out the indestructible star polyps. I guess i am just looking for a place to vent and maybe find some suggestions or positive encouragment, i am almost ready to throw in the towel...
