Amazing fish sex change

Nope. My tank has been limping along for awhile now, after several other life events took up my time and money to do anything new grew short, so there have not been any new additions of anything for over a year and a half. I got this fish as a really tiny little thing, but it's now grown to 3+ inches in length. Always had the female coloration, though, until just the other day I was feeding everyone and I did a double take at the leopard wrasse and realized it was an entirely different color from what it had been a couple days before. I have mixed feelings, I kinda miss "her", as I was used to her being in there all this time, but "his" colors are really cool, so I'm happy with that as well. Tankmates are a foxface, purple tang, ocellaris clown, blue green chromis.
 
I hear you on the other life events. When my son was born I slowed down big time. I also went a couple years without a tank at all while I built a house. You are pretty close to me, I am not far from Highland. We will have to check out each others systems, maybe trade some frags or something.
 
That would be fine at some point. I'm still not sure just what direction I'm going to go. Part of it is dependent on my current personal situations. If I end up making long term plans with the person I'm seeing right now, then I would likely keep my system and would have the finances to bring it back into good condition again, possibly even upgrade. If we don't stay together, there is even a chance I may sell off the whole system. I need new pumps, new filters and DI in my water treatment system, need to clear out some of the stuff in the tank and get new rock... just lots of things that are a bit expensive. When the tank went south, I lost all of my SPS that I had going well, as well as some of my LPS. Many of my softies are doing fine, have several ricordia, and have 4 RBTA's at this point. My goal, though, had been to have a nice mixed tank with an SPS lean, but that went down the toilet, so it's hard to get the urge to try to get rolling again. System needs a major overhaul.
 
Ah, there he is, the person who provided the means for me to get started in this expensive hobby! :frog:
