Thanks everyone for the kind words both here and through PM's. The tank is what it is these days. I got burned out regarding the online part of the hobby so its just been easier for me to hang out on fb and Liverpool FC sites :D

Craig, I completely redid my tank about a year ago as I wanted a new start.

Hiker, Yep, the system specs are still the same except that I don't do as many water changes.

Thanks again,
Mark

Hey Mark,

First off Congrats to a beautiful tank system BUT what really strikes me is when you stated Liverpool FC ...

Just so you know I'm a Man U fan ... :tongue:

Thanks Paul. I've supported the Redmen for 25 years. I fell in love with them when I was playing in England when I was 15. I can't blame you for supporting ManUre :angel:

Used to play competitive soccer (we called it football back home) way back, back when and not sure how or when but ever since I've been a Red Devil's fan for the last 27 odd years... :hell_boy: (sorry Rev ... :cry_002:)

Sorry David, The passion is long gone. I don't test my tank anymore and I only scrape the glass once a month. I just can't justify spending money in this hobby anymore.

WOW really? Seriously one of the nicest tank probably in the hobby and no passion? :( Looks great though Mark. Hang around here a little more and at least chat with us.

HAHA! That wouldn't work!

A uninspired, passionless Mark Poletti is still twice as much a reefer that I am. His stuff would die post haste in my tank. ;)

Hang in there Lee. The economy sucks and I know that Vegas has been hit hard; as well as Sacramento. Fishing is always a good option though :D

Can anyone tell me why I can not link to photobucket? I tried to upload a FTS from tonight, but it is not allowing me. This is not the 1st time I've not been able to share on R2R. Thanks
