When I am not at the tank... I am here, learning more about the tank.

Anyone else have this problem or should I see someone? (Other than the LFS)

ahh.. the dreaded Reef Addiction Syndrome...

when your significant other asks you "you love your fish more, or me?"...

I know with previous tanks it meant more sleepless nights. Every little splash or sound (even for the short time the 225 ran) and I'd be dashing downstairs dreading the worst. I have found issues so it wasn't just paranoia. But...with the all-in-one simple tank I'm with ya...has helped me de-stress and improved my life.

Ha ha! It's funny you say that. There's nothing like just finishing the plumbing on a new tank, then someone flushes a toilet or the washing machine drains and you darn near have a heart attack! It sure makes you a fan of fail safes and redundancy. Peace of mind comes when you have a backup for your backup.

Not 12, I think it was more so to get back at me for spending all my time with my tank and neglecting her
