That's cause Lps is boring

in saying that tho i dont have time for it anyway so maybe its for the best have so many other projects on at the moment so im glad it looks beautiful and i can just enjoy it without the stress of maintaining it

its always the same with us guys...as soon as the project gets to the point where it is finished...we become bored. I call it the 'Mario Theory' (there is probably a proper scientific name but i dont know it)...I realised when I was younger and played mario that I would wait all day at school just to get home and play...When i started, i was so excited to be able to jump to collect a mushroom or star...after a while that becomes easy and it takes more to thrill my playing...then eventually when the game is finished I am so bored of it and need a new fix. At the start of reefing you crave a good vortech or led light...all your thoughts and money are going towards this one object and then once you get it, the thrill is gone. If you have achieved a good tank and it does everything you want it to do...its time for a new game. I think you should leave that one in its place to look beautiful and start a new tank!

The Mario Theory applies to me regularly!

added a few new additions. a cleaner wrasse, a standard orange clown, a black and white clown and a coral goby, will be interesting to see if they get chased out!

I've got two yellows in my tank..they're harmless. But i added the second last week and all it does is follow the other one around, they're gonna pair up soon I hope. Also got two blacks. :)

Both of mine made me angry, they both host my small maxima clam which was on the rocks..they snuggled in it so much, it doesn't open properly..so he's now on the sand bed..
