Doing the same. Got my mushrooms out of their tupperware earlier & got them placed, did my pwc, and was just looking at the tank only to see a nice little head of aipstasia poking out.....

Went to the LFS and got a scribbled foxface and 2 honey chromis. Now am sitting with a cold beverage watching the tank and the interactions between the new and old fish.

Haha. That'd be great! Mines fairly new but still fun to watch and think about what to do next. And sometimes fun just to plan a dream tank

I hardly watch tv ever now. And lucky for me, my gf was the one who got me started in this hobby just cause she likes them, she's never had one. Now I'm obsessed and she knows I'm gonna have plenty of fish tanks when we move out in our opinion they're more entertaining and educational then tv

I WAS watching my tank... Then I started drinking beers and went to the bar. Then I came home and drank more beers and watched my tank some more. Vicious circle

I run a 12" 460nm LED strip for moonlighting...
It's a Marineland Accent light... Works like a charm I think

So what is it? Am I basically just running a smaller blue light over my tank while the other lights are off?

Exactly. I actually run mine 24/7... Can't really see too much of the blue because my main lights are obviously much brighter, but the LED's use barely any energy consumption and are rated for like 50,000 hours or something like that lol... I found a nifty way to take the actual light strip out of the casing and install it to my main light came out pretty good!
came out pretty good!
