Thanks! I will try. Hopefully things will grow in nicely.

I don't want too much more in the way of sps at all. Just want to replace what I lost. And add a tabling acro or two.

Then I want to add some more gorgonians and softies. Probably most Zoos. Also some LPS if I can afford it! I tend to only like the Aussie LPS which is always soooo expensive.

For fish, I don't know yet. I have always wanted a Sailfin Tang but feel the tank is a little small for one. I HAVE to try a Kole tang since that is one of the few fish my fiance has requested. Might start to get kind of crowded tang wise

I have a Hawkfish on the way too I think.

Right now I have...


Naso Tang
Hippo Tang
Yellow Tang
Blue Spotted Rabbit
Harlequin Tusk
Copperband
Cleaner Wrasse
8 Chromis (3 months or so and only one death!)
Scissor Goby (not so lucky here...most died)
Orange Spot Goby
Blue Damsel
Fang Blenny (such a wicked fish!)
Pair of clowns

Adding:

Kole Tang
Hawkfish

Want to add but most likely no room:

Blue throat Trigger
Sailfin


We'll see...

Just added up what this system has cost between new purchases, old equipment cost (when I bought it) and livestock...

Yeah I know...I wasn't thinking. Now the tank will never look good enough.

I dunno.... it's looking pretty good! Then again, I didn't see the number that came up on your calculator..

[Rbacchiega]

I'm guessing 6 or 7...followed by some zeros

Of course it will! That number will fade with time or the next time you see a really awesome coral/fish/etc that you have to have at the LFS

You don't wanna know how much I've spent over the years. I think of it in "trips to mexico" but I hold steady at the same calculation I made about 3 years ago

And we have a winner! Actually a bit more than the 7. And yes four zeros. Its the zeros that kill me.

Oh Im not even going by how much I have spent over the years. I m just talking what the cost of only whats in this set up now. Basically I had a pad of paper and sat infront of the tank with the stand doors open and started writing everything down...

I know to some people $7500 isn't all that much and they have much more invested in their tank but to me thats a lot. Actually I guess I missed out the fish which would push that up over $8K. Anyways, just made me think about the tank a bit. Probably a good thing

Gonna need to hit the frag auction and see if I can score some nice deals this weekend instead of going to the shops.

It's funny how a number that means nothing, can be sooo costly!
