frustrating !!!

[northbay-reefer]

I need to vent .... PLEASE........ I've been working night and day, in addition to my full time job, I am trying to put together this spa for my wife to run so in effect I had two full time jobs ... yike !!! for the last two month. The other day I got back from the spa after a long day of working and putting together spa equipments I notice that my sump was leaking ...:wildone: at that moment I was so tired and frustrated that just about ready to break everything down and get rid of the tank ... just couldn't handle it any more ... :blown: after 1/2 hour of throwing things around and breaking everything in sight I finally calmed down and decided to siphon out the water from the sump and glue it. Went to bed and the next morning refill the water and the sump is doing good so far. Thanks God for Goops.

Anyway, I finally did a water change after 3 months ... loss some sps due to neglect and start seeing signs of stress on some of the chalices but other than that the fishies are happy.

I really need to a get away with the guys ....

I think you just spoke words out of my book. Corals can be replaced, sometimes sanity can't. Hang in there, things will bounce back.

Thanks Chris, the bazooka joe and a couple of other sps kept on triving through all of this though

I've had a few things going on too that have kept me tired, stressed, and make me go on a vacation to get rid of it all

Yeah I know what you mean, but I can't even go on vacation now that we opened a salon & spa. Tennis anyone?

I'll just keep doing regular maintenance on my tank until it is dialed in again before adding anything, I hate to kill corals because of my impatience.
