110g Mixed Reef V2

[fishytime]

heres a few more of what will likely be parting pics for this tank......it will like be shut down in the next few weeks......wow, kinda freaky to type that... this tank has been running for five years altogether.....gonna be hard to shut it down and sell it......I cant say that Im not looking forward to the upgrade tho......anyway back to the reef porn....







went to BAs today and they had their maxi-minis on sale for 50% off!!!!.....and for the life of me I dont understand why these two were still there....kinda blurry as they attached in an awkward place for me to dunk my camera and the glass was dirty, but you get the idea....

I saw those there but until I get my upgrade salty I just don't have any room for anything.

I didnt have much room before either.....but a bunch of my coral went on its northern migration which freed up a bunch of space in the 25g..... at $25 a nem and one blue and another blueish one, I just couldnt walk away empty handed.....Laurie's a sucker for maxi-minis so I will likely give them to her for her collection

Well I'm sure you'll have plenty of room once you finish filling up the new tank

While that may be true, I have a strict "no nem" rule for my big tanks..... After having one BTA turn into dozens in V1, no nem will make it anywhere near my SPS

bittersweet feeling ATM.....Laurie was in town for the long weekend and we had a great w/e....zoo, fish stores, shopping and visiting my family and then I tore down the small tank and sent everything left in the tank with Laurie, to Edmonton....I still had a couple wee small tuxedo urchins, 4 maxi mini nems, some ricordia, three feather dusters, my clash of the titans favia, a dozen assorted snails, 2 pom pom crabs, a sexy shrimp, 2 trimma gobies, a chromis, a starry blenny, a pygmy possum wrasse and my blue assessor....the mass exodus has begun.....very strange to see the tank sitting empty.....sounds like everything has made the trip ok,(Laurie is acclimating and placing stuff as I type this) so that is good......now its just the big tank that needs to be moved......gosh this moving tanks three hours away to a different city is stressful......

I hear ya. Tearing tanks down and moving are not fun things on their own - combined is a lot to deal with
You'll be OK once you make the final move and are able to focus on your new environment

i feel for you i only had to move my 90g 15 feet away into another room and it took me a month to commit and barely slept the night before.. i can only imagine how your feeling. but take pride that you know what you know and alot more refined a reefer thus will give you complete success.
