What do you think guys? Mike just left headed back south. heck of a job. Got five little fish left I think @Peanut wants. And yes, my stress level is close to zero now.

It's certainly clean.

Seriously glad you could get it worked out too make things better for you. I'm always sorry to see someone leave the hobby but you can always come back when you're ready

I know its a load off, but are you ok really
Yes, very okay with it. Loved the tank and the challenge of doing it, but I was ready to stop and this was the best way. Mike is a great guy and we were able to break it down in six hours. He was shaking his head a lot saying man there’s a lot of corals. Has! He did great.
Everything - pretty sure I live in this state

Looks like you’re getting rid of your tank? But your on a sale thread

But it’s been a long day
Long story, but I was already planning on leaving the hobby for a while and just said here it is, come get it. They all went to a good home. I said first one to get here gets to pick first……..he picked everything. Except the smaller fish. Peanut said she wanted some fish, so they are waiting for her.

Maybe not leaving, but just taking an extended vacation. Secret handshake with Mike is I get to come pick frags off all the colonies I want back when I’m ready to start again. Win, win for both of us.

Does he have an entire spare empty giant tank to hold and treat everything in?

Says he does. He took all the live rock too. He’ll have to do all the quarantining and will keep everything separate from his systems. He’s got a big project.

What an honor and privilege to get to spend the day with @AKL1950 i felt criminal breaking down the tank. We just kept going, and going, then some more. Good time. Easy parts done, now i have to nurture everything back to health. We did a KCL dip of everything as we broke it down. Chaos. Just got diesel and a snack, be home at 130am. Thank you again!!

@SBB Corals . Has a problem with the bid. Current Bid in torch is $24. I try to set proxy at $30, then it said someone already set at $30 and it doesn't change to the person proxy. So, I try $40 and same thing. It stay at $24

If you Put in normal bid of 40 the auction will jump to that. You need proxy higher than other persons proxy. It’s just not auto updating
