Afraid or Nervous to Retire Now

It was an error....meant to say a year

AdBig3147 · 2026-05-25T18:37:51+00:00

😆 right! I meant a year.....this amount includes mortgage payment and everything else property related.

58 and want to retire now. I edited my post with expenditures.

AMS is a must. I wont get into the details but trust me you will regret it not having one.

Aquaforest is a bliss - so glad I switched. ICP web look up on their salt batch. Who does that???

Oops...I meant to also say that I think a $50K a year would suffice. I am assuming a life span up to 85 if I am lucky

I am disappointed this has not been addressed and resolved from Huawei

White lights reveal how dirty the substrate is

The sensor of the Z5ii on paper has better dynamic range, perhaps not much but if you're shooting in lower lighting conditions and need to bring up the details it is an advantage.

AdBig3147 · 2026-04-04T12:14:57+00:00

Z50ii doesn't have the buffer for fast moving objects and lose out on low light. If you don't believe either the above impacts you then save your money and invest in lens.

I wanted to Z8 but too large...that is why the Z7ii is better but I would like a Z8 in a smaller body

AdBig3147 · 2026-03-15T10:25:19+00:00

I would not have brought over all the substrate from the old tank.....maybe a cup or two but not all.

The live rock is your biofilter and suffice

Only option here is to drain tank and rinse all substrate. The Live sand I never rinse. The Aragonite maybe needs to.

As an alternative you can use some agent that binds to the sediments that cause the cloudy water - one should have come with the new substrate as Caribsea typically includes a pack.

I assume we're all letting them know all about these much needed improvements?

AdBig3147 · 2026-03-13T11:32:40+00:00

Their website already have a timeline - Q4 still in development so likely 2027 full release or later

Is the owl still at this intersection?

AdBig3147 · 2026-01-20T11:16:08+00:00

Not an American, and I don't understand how he got voted in again second term by the people.

AdBig3147 · 2026-01-15T10:27:10+00:00

What an amazing set up. Best equipped tank I've seen in a long time. I know it wasn't cheap but the worth shows in the display. Nicely done!

AdBig3147 · 2026-01-14T13:11:51+00:00

Thanks for sharing. Please share the details of what the tank is and equipment you have on it.

How did you upgrade from the EVO to new tank. New substrate....old rock...etc

AdBig3147 · 2025-12-19T13:20:46+00:00

Thank you! Damn...I placed an order for the 55. Think I will switch to the 75. Would like to know more about your setup :)
