Well it has come down to it finally. I have to downgrade from my 100 gallon to a 30 nano. I simply cannot keep up with the cost. i need at least $1,000 more to get the 100 up to where i want it (more lights, more corals, more fish....) and for much less than that i can get a fully constructed nano.
sigh
I am going to get the
Solana tank. All i have in my big tank at the moment is two clowns and two cardinals, plus some amount of snails and hermits. These are nano fish anyhow, so....... sigh.
The 100 gallon will end up on craig's list along with my stand and
skimmer. Siiiiighhhh.
It is not all bad i guess. Now i can put the nano up in the main room instead of a small closet like place.
