Biggest Impulse Buy!!

Midnight Angelfish, its ink black color would so so neat contrasting in a brightly lit reef aquarium, thought I'd get lucky and it wouldn't nip. I was wrong. ;Blackeye
 
Might get heckled for it but it was last week. My black Volitan lion, Vader

The one im getting next pay day lol. My biggest coral splurge, since im still pretty new to it. Normally just bought zoas or my biggest splurge prior was my pink/green goniopora, so nothing really more then 100 bucks at a time. Im going to vivid to get if they hopefully still have in stock at their store in a few days.
Should be getting:

Meteor Shower Cyphastrea

Aussie Fluorescent Tip Torch(saw this one in the store while picking up water, looked great)

Then a frogspawn, more or less whatever i can find that decently priced(saw a few when I was there for 40-50 if I remember, i think they were the more basic one, but that will do, just need stuff to fill out space )
Purple Tip Frogspawn

Would you believe he was at a petco?! I had to “save” him, plus none of my fish are small enough for him to eat. ‘Twas destiny

Seriously?! My local petco has maybe 5 awful marine tanks. In any case it was clearly fated that you save him. Real talk though I’d never seen a black lion before now. Sooo gorgeous. Hats off to you my friend. Is he eating okay?

(Sorry to derail the thread)

Same with my in town petco, the kid knows nothing about fish. This one is about an hour away, but only 10 minutes from work, and honestly the nicest tanks I’ve seen. I’ve never seen a black lion either! The girl working offered to order me a red or a fuzzy. I said heck no I have to have him. He’s eating great! Has zero problem chasing down rosy minnows. I needed a social fish and after just a week he’s already following me from one side of the tank to the other

That’s beyond awesome. I’m planning on a dwarf fuzzy or fu Manchu once I get my display set up. I love lions. I’ve wanted one since I was 8 and got a petco or Walmart 20g freshwater system (can’t remember lol)

As for the thread, my impulse by? I bought my sump on impulse because I didn’t trust myself to cut the glass and install it without breaking the 40g I now use as my qt. I got my oceanic 120g, stand, and 40g breeder for a crazy good deal. But the previous owner had only had a wet dry sump. I’m planning a refugium. Thus, bought a pro clear sump on a whim one day when I was bored and went to my LFS to look at the fish and dream about my tank lol
