Learn to Live With It
"...As surprising as it may seem your tank will look ugly at first. This happens
to all new marine aquariums as they cycle through their initial filtration
phase. Your tank may go brown, and then green, and then red, and then just look
junky. It happens. Consequently the one coral you really want to keep may not
live. You may struggle to raise the prize fish you originally intended to
acquire. It's okay; just learn to love whatever is working for you. Remember,
not only is this a hobby, but we are keeping living ecosystems. Special efforts
should be put forth to enjoy and appreciate what we are keeping, whatever it may
be. It takes time and patience to turn a glass box full of rock into a
beautiful, thriving reef tank...Adam Blundell M.S."
