Hello fellow reefers......i just thought I'd share my insanity with you all. As we all know, i can't fit anything else on my rocks in my reef tank, sooooo, I've brilliantly decided to turn the puffer tank into a display macro algae tank too. Just when i thought i was done spending money, i find another reason to spend some more, smdh. When i went to Orlando, FL, I bought some really nice looking macro algae and threw it in there. Now I'm on the hunt for some more different types of algaes. We truly need an reefers anonymous. Lol

Good luck Smitty. We all need help. Even as I've got rid of things making the tank easier to keep up, I'm still tweaking lighitng and spending money. It never ends...

Shipping was $40 bucks, but I feel like they got over on me because the store also charges $10 for a box to ship it in. You'd think the box would come with that 40bucks. Corals are expensive in Florida, the only reason why I bought two of the frags is because the wife really liked them.

lol a tip may be .. when i want to rearrange things i pretty much pull all the pieces that are not happy ( or not so happy) and put them in a bucket filled with tank water .. then go by which ever one i like the best and so on and place them where they need to be with regards to light and flow .. finally dump the bucket back in and done. i used to do it one at a time by pulling them and placing them on sand but its wayy confusing that way

I need to start trying it that way, because i do put everything on the sand bed and go from there. Thanks.
