:nilly:too bad they never seem like that to me

i always have this wonderful vision of lusious and vibrant coral reefs FULL of coral

and then one thing goes bad and i lose $300 in corals, or my goby covers and kills the most awesome plate coral i've ever seen, that ONE thread of caulerpa takes over, or we go on vacation :irked:

Thats why you need a good tank sitter when you leave. Someone who knows the basics of the tank lol. Thats hard to find, none of my friends know jack about fish tanks so vacations are major clean before leaving, have them feed a few times, and two major cleanings when i get back. Good times lol

that'd be sweet but impossible logistically

im in the same boat.. people dont even know hw to take care of my FW tanks properly, why should i trust them with a $1200 reef tank?

its hard to trust anybody with my tank, but i have had my dad doing this for a while so. The most id ever do if my dad couldnt do this, is keep the lights on weird cycles and get an auto feeder to feed just flakes, only downfall with this idea is some of my fish will not touch flake food.......

I wonder alot what im coming home too but my dad always seems to do a good job.....
