Dr Randy-

I'll add to the chorus, thanks so much. You articles have to be the most linked ever, and your personal help was appreciated by all.

Much luck on whatever comes next for you, hope we see you around some.

I'll bet your wife is happy

One more person singing the same tune. Randy, YOU ROCK!

I appreciate all the time you took to help answer my questions personally in my posts and PM's. I only got into the hobby about 7 months ago so I am glad I got to get some questions answered.

THANKS for the great knowledge for all to search back on.

Obviously you know you are going to be deeply missed-but
I want to say thank you for all the personalized responses to the threads I posted on your forum. Its truly amazing all the time and knowledge you have contributed to the reefing community. Your articles will always remain in (my favorites) file for future reference.
I have to commend you on how you not only answer questions on how to fix problems, but you explain why/or what interactions could occur. You have gone above and beyond so people like myself can see the whole picture!
It has intrigued me how someone with your knowledge can take the time to break answers down with simplicity so beginners like myself can understand !

Thanks again!
Jolene

Randy,
You can't possibly know how very many people you have helped over the years who never actually posted a question but simply followed your advice in your forum and articles. Thank you so much for being one of my all time favorite teachers.
You Rock!

Hi Randy,

I've only just seen your message. So it's a bit of a belated good luck with whatever other projects you decide to do!

Thanks Randy for all the knowledge you have shared. Please keep writing those articles when you get bored and want to share more knowledge with us.

In this hobby we are always learning. And you are the best! We will all miss you and hope to see you from time to time on the forum. Wish you all the best. Enjoy your free time doing other things you like and spending time with the family. I'm sure a break is well needed.

Dr. Holmes-Farley,
I want to personally thank you for the dozens of questions you have directly answered for me.
And the several hundred, if not thousands, of additional questions of mine you have answered through the response to the posts of others.
I can directly relate to you the success I have had with my tank and consider your articles, which I have printed out hard copy and keep in a 3 ring binder, completely invaluable.
Once again,
Thank You Very Much Sir,
Sean

I was having a good day until I realized tonight that you are stepping back! I read many of your articles and found your contributions tremendously helpful. Thanks for all you have done for us. I hope you stick around RC at some level. Good luck to you, and thanks again. I am very grateful.
