Why are you getting out so quickly? you just started the tank.....there are a lot of people on here to help out.

 

[jsanfilippo5]

Im just really annoyed with piecing things together and things not working right with plumbing and it has been draining more money out of me than Id like to admit - People on the forum are amazing and yes, VERY willing to help! Actually someone even offered to swing by my house and check everything out for me..

Im just exhausted and the hobby is stressing me out and taking too much time away from other things I need to do with my business...

 

[SPotter]

Well it definitely is time consuming in the beginning as well as draining. the first 6-12 months are the hardest but after that it does get easier....imo. it might be worth letting someone come by and check everything out to see where you stand before selling everything. you might just need a few tweaks.

Either way...good luck.

 

[jsanfilippo5]

Thanks! I'll see what happens....

No no no,hang in bud,way to soon to throw in the towel,you're going to loose a lot of money way to soon.Why not take the offer of help,maybe it's something minor that can be easily tweaked by one of the experienced guys,six months down the road you'll be glad you did.

 

[jsanfilippo5]

Im actually contemplating taking the hit and getting something smaller and all in one - plug and play...

 

[neptune]

does it have anything to do with dec 21st 2012......i noticed alot of people getting rid of their tanks and fleeing the country...or the fact that china may pull outta the bank system then were all..........:bunnies:

 

[neptune]

get all the leds you can first.......lol..........

 

[skene]

You'll regret getting something smaller... just stick with what you have. the larger the tank the less room for mistakes.

 

[neptune]

i agree with that one.....this hob aint cheep

 

[jsanfilippo5]

its definitley 2012..

you think its easier with a plug and play?i have a 28 nano and its more work than the 90gallon i had before this....weekly water changes..i would stick it out the reward is oohh so worth it,and like you said there are more than plenty of people willing to give you a hand.i myself got a great deal of coral and fish from most of the people on here for either nothing or really really cheap.

 

[neptune]

i knew it im scared too man...especially since i haven't mastered sps at all yet...but according to RUSH their album was 2112.... so i think they got the dates wrong... rush was deep

I started with an aio and ended up swapping out all of the equipment because it just wasn't sufficient. You will spend more money on an aio and from what you have listed, you have a pretty good set up.

+1
you end up kicking yourself and always thinking about what you could have had had you followed through. maybe just take a break, hold on to everything and then continue after your refreshed

[jsanfilippo5]

yeah.. a forum member is coming by on thursday to help me out..

I love how everyone here is talking me off the ledge...

 

[Wolf DOT]

trust me, i know how you feel. when you see how much everything really is, then you this and that which you didn't account for. then the little things that don't cost much, but man do they add up quick. i was almost ready to call it quits myself, but my wife knew how much i wanted it and kept me on top of it:inlove:.

I just took my time, and now i can say that I'm happy that i will finally be up and running in 1 week

That's one of my favorite tanks! After the hard part of the initial set up you'll love it. Don't give up yet before you give it a chance.
