Starting over

GiraffeMaster · 09/21/2011, 06:48 PM

About done with my craptastic divorce. My tank is in the house I gave up. I have a 75 gallon I have had since college with my mated pair of maroon clowns I have had over 10 years.

I got a new house and I was going to be responsible and buy furniture but I decided I would get a 125 gallon fish tank instead. I'm really looking forward to reclaiming something I haven't got to enjoy for so long.

I'll try to post some pics of the new setup as I go

Outstanding! Sorry about the divorce, but it sounds like reefkeeping is more important to you, which is cool because your tank will take half of your money but never demand it in a court of law! Buy a futon, TV, & PS3, your set. Seriously, good luck & welcome back!!!!

That sounds like my living room but I also have a pool table

Sorry about your divorce man. I have a feeling things will take a sudden turn when the tank is up and running.

Looking at your reef tank creation will probably be very therapeutic. I know I get really relaxed after looking at my fish tank. Were you able to save your maroon clowns?

Looking forward to seeing how your tank turns out. I'm planning 120, so it'll be a good comparison to see what you're going to do.

My soon to be ex-wife says they are ok. Her brother has been feeding the rose bubble tip so apparently there are like 7 of them in the tank now.

My dad is getting older and wants to give me all of his stuff which is sad because he is the one that got me started with fresh water angels. We used to breed them and it was a really fun. But he is glad that I'm taking his stuff and all the fun we had together with it.

I'm really excited to have a tank again

Sorry to hear about your divorce. Everything will be OK!

As to the tank, keep us posted. Now that you will have a bit more time, you'll be able to focus on your build and make yourself a show DT.
