It seems like people can buy your way to success in reefing. Throwing money at gear is cool I guess, but having a successful reef tank on the cheap is the real flex. Knowledge will always beat money in this game.
I agree, that is the biggest flex. The average person isn’t willing to commit and give the time and attention to detail. Hobbyists that have the nicest healthiest tanks on the bare minimum are the real ones. They are certified. When I read up on forums those are the ones I try to find when I look for information because they truly know best… but with the same amount of fondness I have to say I love the aesthetics, and convenience tech brings to the hobby as well. I don’t mind working hard at all but I don’t mind it when it’s more convenient either lol… As long as my reef is happy Im happy. So if one can afford a nice piece of equipment to make their tank look nicer or make the job swifter why not? Lol
Great tank. Congratulations. Btw I noticed your clam is all the way on top of your rocks cape. How did you manage that. Did it grasped the rock by itself and aren't you worried that it would fall-off?
I sculpted a small piece of rock with a dremmel tool and gave it some time to grasp on to it then I moved it there the rock happened to fit perfectly into a groove on that spot so I left it there
