Chin up ... now you can buy new ones

Oh, I'll be OK... But thanks for your thoughts. I just get frustrated and impatient with not being able to do stuff as before (and not just talking about my reef tanks). Haven't flown for over a month now either, which I also really miss. And not sure when I will be able to get back to that, hopefully in a month or two. Am driving now though, (not a standard), so at least I am mobile.

As for my tanks, did some major pruning just before the surgery, so it is still OK (except for the coralline build-up). Water changes are easy enough. But will wait another couple months before I buy any more fish. At least my current inhabitants are all happy for now. And if we do have another wind storm, am prepared now. Brought back a power pack and a generator from the cabin, so all ready if another power outage does happen.

I still want to do a major reset of my upstairs tank, and get rid of all those pesky mushrooms. Maybe later this winter. But the longer I wait, the less clean rock I will have left, as they are taking over everything, and continuing to crowd out my SPS. And to think I once thought they looked pretty....
