Wow Ruth that stinks! I know how tough this hobby can be sometimes but worthwhile things in life are seldom easy. Things that bring you joy and feelings of reward can on the other hand bring frustration and dispair. It's opposition in our lives that help us grow, it just doesn't usually seem fair, especially at the time. Please take to heart what your fellow reefers are telling you because you bowing out of the hobby now is what would really suck. Hang in there, there are a ton of rewarding days ahead for you in the hobby. Please stick with it.

Ruth, I am truly sorry to hear about your loss. That conspic was a beauty, I saw it at JL's before you bought it. I know it's a sickening feeling when your "pets" die, I know that feeling as I have dealt with ich a few times in the past.
I hope you stick with the hobby though, if there's anything you need let me know.

On two separate occasions over the years, I've had tank crashes and my largest and favourite fish died
 The feeling of loss over simple fish is overwhelming. Only other reefers know how that feels.Give yourself a few days to get over the shock of this terrible loss. I'm hoping you will find the desire to work with your tank again soon. After all, it's hard to get salt out of one's blood once it's there. My deepest sympathies, Ruth

Hey Ruth sorry for the loss, I kind of know what you are going through. Yesterday the breaker for my tank blew on my tank as well. I lost a few frags that I had in my tank but the loss that hurt was my vollyball sized birdsnest that I had grown from a large frag. It brings you down and makes you wonder why we do it but Gregg was right, its only cause we love doing it so much that the losses hurt. Take care, Russ
