Sparky's tank journal

[Sparky]

After being out of the hobby for a few years I decided to start up a pico 5 gallon. That didn't last long upgraded to a 20 gallon innovative marine shortly after then a friend fell in love with it and I ended up giving it to them and upgraded to a 60 innovative marine. Here are some photos of the start of the 5 gallon pico getting dinos. Then moving on to the 20 gallon And then to the 60

It's been a crazy few months just moved from an old apartment to a new apartment in the same complex and finally installed my T5 hybrid I thought we were gonna end up going back to San Diego but my wife's contract extended for another year so I won't be setting up my 200 gallon just yet On a good note found a couple corals that were still somewhat alive not sure how but we'll see what happens. I had a clown fish that was always moving frags but I got rid of that b word

Surprisingly for not doing water changes for about 3 months and just water top offs my nutrients are not that bad everything looks pretty good right now. Im still working on trying to get rid of these bubble tips but I'm headed to Ireland on Thursday for 3 weeks so it's gonna have to wait.
