Hehehehe You picked the wrong person to accuse of spending thousands of $$ per year on a reef yet skimping on engagement rings. We've got one of the lowest tech 120g mixed sps/lps/softie/bta reefs on this board. No sump, no skimmer, no fuge, no auto-top off systems, no canisters filled with chemicals, no wave thingies, no high end powerheads, no reactors of any kind. Highest tech stuff we have are a 6 stage RODI unit for use with chloramine-treated tapwater, a Hamilton MH and PC lighting system, a Pinpoint pH probe and monitor, a refractometer, alk/Mg/Ca test kits, and, oh yes, THE turkey baster

BTW, Sean, very best wishes for a long and happy life with your bride-to-be
