Top three achievements

[Imbarrie]

I wanted to see what top three things reefers are proud of or things they have done that are noteworthy.

I got my mandarins eating cyclopeez and one munches on Mysis.
I have a mated pair of clowns that lay all the time.
The density of macro in my fuge has basically eliminated my need for a skimmer.

[noelskii]

I haven't upgraded/downgraded to a new tank in almost 2 years now.
I started testing.
I can go months w/o doing WC and still not grow nuisance algae

 

[E.intheC]

I haven't upgraded/downgraded to a new tank in almost 2 years now.

Same idea here ....not quite 2 years for me though (almost 1 year), but I have no plans of upgrading or downgrading this tank. That's huge for me. :lol2:

I'd say my biggest accomplishment other than the above is probably keeping my mint green carpet alive and healthy. Knock on wood.

winning the battle against cyano and hair algae
happy healthy fish and corals that look good and are growing
and I saved a rainford goby who should have been dead 5 months ago but is now doing great in my tank.

And Barrie I have this new food for the Mandarins I want to show you.

1) Finally finish a tank, and not upgrade/downgrade after.
2) Was lucky enough to have my Darwin Female Clown and my Male Snowcasso Mate, and I (along with help from others) was able to keep some of the offspring as pets!
3) Have cut my power usage (for my tank) to about half (I love LEDS)

 

[slideways03]

Since i am fairly new to reef keeping and was intimidated by salt water (thinking it was going to be difficult). I am simply proud that i have proven to myself that i can do this.lol

Very rewarding hobby, just wish my gf and her parents understood.lol.. they are simpletons i guess.
