Have you ever wondered....

Believe it or not, it's really not hard to take care of. The chaeto fuge only requires thinning, I have a good sand cleaning crew in there. The skimmer I pull once a month and clean with vinegar. The tanks........I clean the glass every couple of days on the 75 and 40. my cuc takes care of algae and detritus, I don't monkey with the softy fuge, it does great without my meddling. The rest is just dealing with things as they need it, like changing light bulbs, powerheads that need cleaning. I change the carbon reactor once a month, and the GFO every two months. I have enough volume (175g) that it's pretty much self tending

My 72g reef drives me far battier than this frag system. It's always something with it. Right now my skimmer is on the fritz again, and dumping microbubbles everywhere. Grrrrr. I may just go skimmerless, I've about had it with this nonsense.

Upgrade? How can you top your current setup? I feel sorry for you on maintenance days.
