Let's use this thread to show off your biggest failures in the hobby!

Who said coralline was a good thing? (My old 240).

The grass was greener in my old 55...

This is one of the reasons I said screw it and started over with a brand new tank. This was my 46g, before i ditched it for the big rimless cube. I musta fought this gunk for 6 months.

OMG, what a bitch . . . .

But it does remind me of an add i found on cragslist a while ago. Some dude had cheated on his girlfriend and so she sold his most precious possession, his tank, for like $20.

That and the fact that I took it quickly, so that I could leave before I did something I would have regretted later.
