Top Three Worst

[duke62]

Name the top three worst things you cant stand about this hobby. I will start with mine
1. Gluing frags on rock.I always end up using a full crazy glue gel tube.I suck at it.I end up gluing one of my figers to the disc and when i try to get it unglued the frag comes with it LOL
2. When doing maintenence knocking over that same frag that wouldnt stick
3. FREAKING AIPTASIA i cant stand those little beasts

2) doing water changes
3)and last but not least, getting under my tank to change out sump socks!

Bryopsis.

Not doing a water change, but when I syphon out water, and then I have coral sticking out of the top of the tank, then I start to rush and turn the pump on that I have in the garbage can to put the new water in and it splahes all over and sters up the sand and spills on the floor...

Phosphates
