Take a minute to read

So tonight I took some time to really enjoy my tank. I can't remember the last time I did it. I spend so much time reading the forum, testing parameters, chasing numbers, adding/changing equipment etc. that often times I don't sit back and enjoy. Today I added a yellow tang and an orange spotted goby. It was nice to just sit down in the dim light, turn the moon lights on and watch the new fish settle in.

Please make sure u take some time and enjoy the great specimens from around the world you've collected without wiping the glass, cleaning or dosing. And a small cocktail to go with never hurts.

Cheers

I feel sorry for you, chasing water parameters is part of the fun, I enjoy everything related to my tank, I even look forward to maintenance day, Saturday. I observe my tank everday, it's all a labor of love to me. Cheers.

It never hurts to do some organic carbon dosing on a more personal level and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
