What is your least favorite part about reefing? Is it the cost, the maintenance, or the upkeep, maybe a part of the tank, it could be anything?
 
Least favorite thing to do is maintenance water changes. I get so lazy sometimes but then I think of the money I'll lose in livestock if I don't do it...second is cost; but the longer your in the hobby the less you need to purchase (or at least that's what I tell myself everything I buy some new piece of equipment...)
 
Cost for sure. I feel like a lot of things are highly inflated. I definitely want to upgrade my lights to Hydra 32s and my powerheads to Ecotechs, but to drop that much is kinda ridiculous. Especially since I am putting a ring on it in four months.
 
Cost. Double edge sword. If I had it to spend this hobby would be dangerous. I would have a Tridacna Tank, Anemones, Seahorses......ahhh to dream.
 
I hate it when things are going wrong. I love seeing beautiful tanks of successful reefers on this site, I hate looking over and seeing my tank not look like that lol.
 
I'm gonna go in a different direction:

The learning curve and misinformation. I feel like after 9 months in the hobby I at least have a basic enough understanding to not make very dumb mistakes. But also realize I picked the worst setup I could have, and will need to build from scratch at some point to really get what I want.
 
Dosing. I cannot for the life of me keep a consistent schedule and don’t have any automation. I’ve lost so many corals because of this it’s ridiculous.
 
My least favorite is that the mayor of r2r now has a guitar guy instead of the cool avatar he had before! :):):)
