Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Good morning John, a stunner! When I was at my lfs I took a close look at an orange plate, I don’t have room on my sandbed and have to wait until I have more real estate, then I thought of your stunning plates and thought when I’m ready I’m not going to settle for a plain plate I want the ones that you have.
 
I couldn't agree more, but at the same time it's a difficult topic and even more difficult to prove.
I've had this happen, and I called the individual out directly. The seller claimed the auctions I won were attacked by an anemone and killed. It was because no one bid and I got the corals for nothing. I confronted him after I saw my "dead" corals for sale the next week at higher prices. It wasn't difficult for me in the least to call out a fraud to protect others. No one person is bigger than the community. But again, I was sure of it, not just "pretty sure ".
 
Walker, this is about the 24th visit to my feeder in the last couple of days, traffic has been heavy. I know this isn’t a competition but I’m winning! :winking-face:

Actually Kevin, we get one about every hour during the day. So I think that im winning lol
 
Maybe a big name here!?
I’m just not looking to publicly put someone on blast especially since I can’t prove it I will say They aren’t big on this forum I’m nut even sure if they have a username on here but they are pretty respected in the hobby for their quarantined fish

I wasn’t home for Eight hours yesterday during daylight so I probably had Four times it yesterday, winning!
 
well, lost one of the cbb's last night....:'(
So sorry Jill, it never gets easier. My female clown is determined to end my new royal gramma’s life. He is so small, it wouldn’t have flown with my last one he was twice her size. I don’t think this will end well. No more fish replacements until the upgrade.
