here’s something magical about watching life in your tank mature and change over time. I’ve had one of these red discosomas hanging around for years—steady and chill. But suddenly, in the last six months, they’ve been growing like crazy, almost like a nuisance! 🤯 What changed? Good question. Maybe if I actually tested my water more often, I'd have an answer. 😅 But that’s a story for another day!

Stay tuned for more tales from the tank!

Stay tuned for more on my journey with these aggressive a-hole fish and tips from a lifetime of aquatics!

🔍💎 Who says the reef life doesn't come with its own treasure hunts? 💰 When it comes to scoring a deal, I'm always on the lookout! Gryphon Diamond Band saws, known to fetch a hefty price, ranging from $400 to $550, are like hidden gems in the marine world. 🌊🔍 But let me tell you, the hunt is half the fun!

Stay vigilant, re**ers, for treasures, await where you least expect them! 💎🦐 💪🌊
