Thanks guys!!!! I'm so proud of you Ali I could bust! It's not any one man or girl but the spirit of caring for these incredible animals and engineering systems to do so. I have missed the good vibes and collective desires here shared to have awesome displays of natures 1 true magnificence, the coral reef.!

Yo 818!! You got back up!!! Yes, that is my old 180 and it's where I farmed from. Just a standard lee mar I think. Thanks for showing photos Ali!!
BBL,

joe

Smile Met the man, not the system

I had the pleasure of meeting Joe at a Frag Swap at the home of the reefer who shall not be named.

Never got to see his system.

Man Joe, has it been 4 years already? How time flies! How have you survived that long without a tank?

Hi Kevin,
yes it is hard to believe. Been flying RC planes and Jets. Having fun. Have a buddy that has a small nano and get to see it sometimes. What amazes me is the quality of photos and intensity of organisims being kept now. Very exciting even for an on looker! Good to see you holding down the fort here at RC.!~)

I did get many to go out of the water. Algae was a concern when some had die off etc. Just something to be watched.

Joe,

No tank currently (equipment fire early this year). I'm planning the next one now so I'm just a lurker.

Hi Joe,

Nice to see you again!!

When I was first starting with reef tanks, Joe was DA MAN! He was kind enough to have me over to see his setups and trade a few frags.

Hi Ken! I remember you. How is your tank? Thanks, I got about a million questions, I feel like rip van winkle waking up and so many things have changed and advanced.
The monkey is here on my hard drive and might make a come back!~).

Hi Ken, thanks!!! You are right, where are they? All I can say is I'm really proud of the community here and in socal for the kind of reefing I see. Top notch does not do it justice.

Ted, sorry to hear about your fire, the fear of an accident or fire is one of the harshest consequences of our reef hobby. All the best of luck to you in whatever you do.
