It's Just a Tank

Happy Birthday, @Mibu !

Yes, I seem to mess up a few things. Back to the weekdays. Not much to do.
Going to set upa qt for a corris wrasse. So, looking at stuff. 60g is too big for 1 fish.
Petco (at least in Peoria) has a 50% off sale right now on standard Aqueon tanks. Just some enabling from a fellow hobbyist that definitely took advantage of this sale with plans to be back for more... plenty of space and some disposable income are probably the strongest causes of MTS...

MTS = MOAR Tank Syndrome?

Yep, though I think it is officially "Multiple Tank Syndrome". I'm really questioning my freshwater systems right now with different saltwater quarantine/culturing ideas and 4 double-stacked-40-breeder systems (once the 2 new tanks are in place). All 4 top tanks are currently occupied with freshwater fish but are not well maintained due to higher interest in saltwater.

...though reminders for patience and not jumping in too far too fast are probably helpful, so I'll likely keep the freshwater tanks and use them for maintenance schedule discipline practice.

You got me all excited! Wrong Peoria.

I don't blame you.
Also @Soren does the petco there have a reef section? As the one here in my area, does not.

Saving up until my next trip down south before I buy anything.

There's only one here in AZ that I'm aware of that doesn't have a reef section. I dislike going to that one - a real let down. However, OUR Peoria Petco recently remodeled their entire aquatics department so I was able to take advantage of 50%-75% off. Got some Cardinals, CUC, a toadstool (they threw it in for free), and some fresh stuff - Convict cichlids, danios/tetras, snails, etc. $75 after the % off... Clearance shopping can be bad. "It's on sale!"

As much as I'd like to go, i do have plans in the not so distant future.

Not yet, but Petco is currently building a new store in Peoria, IL that is scheduled to open in September this year and will have a saltwater section. There are saltwater sections in the Petco locations in Pekin, IL and Bloomington/Normal, IL. I have not visited those locations yet, but should in the near future. Both are about 1 hour from my house but Peoria is only ~30 minutes from my house.

You got me all excited! Wrong Peoria.
Sorry! I should have specified, but I knew @Mibu would know what state I meant. I don't know if the sale is nation-wide like the $1-per-gallon sales used to be, I think?
 
Happy birthday mibu! Don’t forget to treat yourself!
I did that already.
Worth ever 1 penny spent!

Also, these yumas I got from @Sfin have a blue skin under the tentacles. They look amazing in ambient lighting.
I will have to get a morning picture somehow. Still haven't charged the digital... :(

Oh, I don't actually celebrate my birthday. I just decided to abuse that for once. Husband likes to buy me things, so I said.. what the heck lets take a road trip!

I figured it was IL so I checked before getting too excited.
