My vote was NO only because I need to re-do the rock, add in my loc-line to the closed loop, figure out why my Duncans are dying, frag some of my zoas off some of my rock and put on plugs, find a really SMALL Blonde Naso and Powder Blue...................and so on

Is anybody ever truly happy with what they have? When I set up the 300 it was supposed to be my best and last and set-up so no upgrades would be required, now two years later I have a 90 gal corner, a 750 FOWLR and I am doing a complete overhaul on the 300, (lets not forget the pair of 80gal bowfronts sitting in the carport) can you believe my wife also gave me the green light to go bigger! I think I need a newer bigger house and a much higher paying Job.

I'm basically happy with my tank and the contents. I could do without the majanos but I'm powering my way through them. Two things I would change 1. the tank itself, wicked scratches which are teh suxor 2. I'd love a quieter overflow and if I did it again I'd get one of those herbie setups.

Meh. My fish are good. My corals are good but I am still suffering from lame ass PE on my acros. Milles should look like Milles, not staghorns. My equiptment for the most part is good but there are a few upgrades I would like. Already dreaming of a big upgrade someday.

NO!!!

Bryopsis, aptasia, and manjos waging gorilla warfare. Saw a bit of each about 3 weeks back and said, I should really do something about it. I went away last week for work, came back and the tank is overrun by all three.

NO!!!!!

Default YES

I just set up my third marine tank... which is my first sump sysytem.

I literally just added my coral this week... so I can say yes to my equipment but the display itself needs some "work" to get it right.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

I'm happy with my tank, the way it's setup, and the scape.

I'm unhappy that I'm not home enough to appreciate it, and I am torn on a new lighting scheme that I've been putting off for far too long.

Meh.

I'm really happy with things as they are but I have started cleaning my basement out so I can play with my masking tape down there while things mature and grow out upstairs.

Unhappy with:
loud gurgling single side drilled hole overflow.
my DIY sump that does not fit in the stand so sits behind it making it really hard to tweak anything that needs tweaking.
constantly blackening sand.
Dottyback that i like that is keeping me from really getting any more fish even though i could fit a few more in the tank.
would really prefer a bigger tank that would let me get more fish.


happy with:
things in general seem to be in better shape. the war on algee is not won but things look better most of the time.
being home from work every day lets me ensure things are good every day instead of 10days wife ignored/4 days to much fussing around.


Add on or replacement is in the works but it still will not be big as i want.
