Somehow I have a strong feeling your plans will change from what your drawing is showing. Your either going to be forced to upgrade to a bigger tank, or start getting rid of some softies and LPS corals as the SPS corals fill in. That frogspawn in the back will kill any SPS coral it can touch. If a leather dies in can mess up your water parameters and take out other corals. That was the realization I came to when I got bit by the SPS bug.. I thought "I can be one of the few that can stuff all 3 types of corals in a tank".. but after losing a couple hundred dollars in nice SPS corals from either getting knocked into, falling onto, or getting touched by an LPS coral I decided my LPS corals (except my 30+ head ORA Duncans, I had to keep those since that is about $700 in Duncans) as well as the really nice yellow fiji leather had to go so I gave them away to club members.

You also have that maroon clown, which are notorious for knocking corals over, so accidents are bound to happen.

Why are you so negative in EVERY one of your posts? Every single post you have has something negative about it. How something isnt going to work or how something will die. Please stop it already. Its annoying. Live life with glass half full not half empty attitude. I have LPS, SPS, and Softies all in my 10nano and my 55 reef and I have no issues at all.

Coral I will gladly take some of your stuff off your hands. I'll even pay. Oh and if you ever wanna swap some frags let me know.

Give me a break... guy has like 40 different corals in a 28G tank.. of course he is going to have to get rid of some when they grow... it isn't being negative, it is being REALISTIC!

And every one on my posts huh? Somehow I don't think that is true.. I bet your one of the kids today that plays on a little league team that doesn't keep score because you can't have a winner or loser or you might hurt kids feelings.. lol. But your posts are soooo helpful aren't they? Just showing how you respond to a thread of mine asking what I should do with a new tank I got.. ya, like giving you a $1500 tank was even an option..

I know what you should do! Give it to me!!! I'll pay you shipping. Thats an excellent idea if you ask me.

Just give it to me. All your problems would be solved.

37 actually. BTW, I'm a kid, not a guy. lol (I'm 15 years old)

15 and still calling yourself a kid? LOL.. at 15 I was telling all the girls I am a MAN.. so wanna go make out? hahaha

Wasn't trying to say anything bad about your tank.. It is a fantastic tank, and I am sure your just as aware that the reality is when those corals start to grow big your going to have to make some choices.. but good thing is you can frag corals and sell them to others and actually make money from your tank. I made over $300 last weekend just selling frags of corals I have and it barely looks like I made a dent in the ones I fragged.

LOL Well, If I'm correct, 18+ is counted as an adult by law, anything under 18 is counted as kid/child by law. lol

Hey kid! sell me some corals!! lol

I couldn't afford crap when I was 15 working at a Piggly Wiggly Super Market haha

Hahahaha.. If you kill someone tell me if the courts treat you as a kid or an adult? Adult seems to be a very relative term, even in America. Law say 18 is when your parents can kick you out of the house, but you can be 12 and sent to jail for a long time if you commit a violent crime.

At 15 I had 5 jobs.. landscaping, 2 paper routes, worked at a grocery store, ran a 8 line BBS out of my bedroom with 4 computers (those things before the internet you had to call into with a modem), and also did computer repair on the side.. and still managed to write some software for nuclear missle silos (that was what my dad did as a living in the air force, worked on nukes) that scored me $100,000 for saving the gov't tons of $ (which was what paid for the 4 computers and 8 phone lines in my bedroom among many other things).

 

[got2envy]

lol I remember the BBS days

I was getting $3.10 an hour at The Pig when I was 15 hahaha
I had a 120g freshwater tank with a humongous Pacu, JD, convict cichlids, firemouh and a Midas cichid got it wit mah tax refund money...now a days I get jack back
I am 37

Wow now its turned to personal attacks. I was just stating a fact. I could go lookup all your quotes but I have better things to do in my life. You on the other hand obviously dont. You need to grow up.

But anyways enough with that.

Coral you probably wont need to get rid of much stuff. I have my 10 nano PACKED full of LPS, SPS, and softies. Basically like yours except all on the sand because my freakin turbo snail keeps knocking stuff off the rocks and all are thriving. Although I do have some zoos and shrooms that I glued onto the LR. But anyways I dont see many problems in your future. You may need to frag some stuff smaller because it will get so big but thats about it. I dont see you having to remove any one species from the tank entirely.
