Hey Tom,
I know the feeling was thinking the same thing but i can't imagine myself with out a tank. My tank is still doing teribble and i lost a lot of stuff but once the tank is doing well agian It will be fun stocking it up again.

There's a lot of great people here as you already know and with there help you'll be back up and running in no time and maybe sell me a frg or two.

hope all goes well.

Vic

Really appreciate the generosity and comfort. :) I going to see if I can get this tank up and running. Its just that it is very hard to continue after somehting like this happen. Having to spend this long time in going all over the five borough and even drive 3 hrs out of state to get a frag from someone and then it's all gone..

But as some of you say, sometime it take a mistake to become more successful and a more beautiful reef tank.

Ok, after a few battle with the tank, I am giving up.. Not the Hobby, the TANK..

I am getting a new one on thursday and hope to have it up and running by this weekend. These past few weeks, I am driving myself crazy with this tank. Now its finaly..

I am gonna start flesh, and not make the not make the mistakes that I had before. The ironic thing is this is around the same time when I first started to setup my first 75 gallon tank.

I will miss you guys too much if I left the hobby ;) :grouphug:

I brought a 90 gal tank from someone and it turn out that there is this layer of deposit that blur out the front glass 90% of the area. The only clear part was around 2" inches on the bottom part, which is totally not acceptable.

I tried many methods buffing with many different powder, acid bath, scratch and remove anything you can think of.

So that tank is useless now except for sump/refugium etc..

I think I am perfext. :wink1:

Well Tom I think that's the best thing to do, getting the new tank.

Do you think you will be using the old 90 as a sump?

I'm saving some big stuff for you :)
