wvreef December 28, 2011 Share December 28, 2011 I would have to say the top three for me r 1-cleaning my power heads, hate having to remove them and try and get them in the same places again 2-cleaning the corners of my tank, mag float get almost all of it then u have to finish by hand 3-mixing my salt water for water changes takes me several days to get everything done before I can do the water change.. all in all it is fairly easy or at least I try to make it easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zygote2k December 28, 2011 Share December 28, 2011 my top 3- 1) People who expect the most but want to pay the least. 2) People who overfeed their fish tank and wonder why their fish die unexpectedly when the nitrates are 200+ppm. 3) Equipment that doesn't work as promised.

GraffitiSpotCorals December 29, 2011 Share December 29, 2011 The giant glass center brace on my oceanic tank. Tanks that have t5 fixtures with all blue bulbs or no white bulbs. Any maintenance on my tank I enjoy except changing out Kalk because it's in a bad spot and hard to get too. If I didn't enjoy taking care of my tank I wouldn't have one.

BowieReefer84 December 29, 2011 Share December 29, 2011 1- Nuisance Algae and not having a tank large enough for a tang or foxface to put in and eat it. 2- Scraping coralline algae off the bottom/sides of the tank. 3- Ugly aquascape's, and people who don't have a very good "eye" for what looks nice/natural.
