Sorry to hear about your great losses, Well just remember not all is lost you still have you wealth of knowledge. Not atleast your tank didnt let go.

COme on and start up a nice little clam tank. you can do it.

there is lots of frags out there still to get from the Reefers in BC.

Shao, sorry to hear that. As others have said, anything you need to get going again, just ask.

I am very sorry to read your story. Your tank was certainly in the top 5 I have visited. As always there are lessons in everything we do. Living very close is not the same as being there every day for that quick look overview that tells you everything is alright. A tank like yours relies on that daily tweeking to ensure everthing is running well.

Hope you stay involved as you knowledge is essential to the growth of other hobbiest.

Tom R

Oh, that just sucks! try to no quit though! Seems like the natural state of mind at the time I am sure. Maybe a smaller set-up for now? I bet you would regreat it in a few months if you have nothing.

Hang in there!
Rob

thanks for all your support everyone...
i think i may just set up a small tank here at my house...
it is quite tough to just up and leave the hobby, after remembering how much i've enjoyed it [and the board] up until now.

we'll see what happens in the following months.

gah, horrible news!!

A amazing tank... I'm depressed to hear this has happened.. I hope you can start up a smaller tank. I am sure it will be just as spectacular.

Hope you stay!

Sorry to hear that Shao, we too lost our entire 175 g and seahorse tank and refugium inhabitants when the bow front sprung a hairline leak at 9:30pm a month ago. We feel your pain.

We are getting the tank replaced by the manufacturer and getting a complete new setup with 210g square tank.

Dave and Larry.

Shao,

Sorry to hear of your great loss, I was stunned when I recieved your email!

I hope you stick around, you are a great reef pal and have helped so many people out along the way on this board.

Remember, beautiful doesn't have to be big
