Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Also great growth - I would think you both have very different systems; I guess it’s just super experienced reefers who know what they’re doing!
I'm not super experienced by any stretch.
 
Hi All,
My baby brother is coming into town tomorrow and I’m on grandkid duty next two days. Also, femur scans sh@*&t it’s week.

I’m going to be away from here except to check in on communication re: giveaway with Daniel.

Shuould be a relief to the thread, so you all can get back to talking about reefing.

Once Parker responds to my post, let him know I’m not ignoring him.

Thanks and luv you guys!
Enjoy the rest and break from the forum. Unplug and recoup/regenerate!

I’ll just go back to the beginning and read all your posts until you get back!
 
If you're nearby he'll give you a free frag with every visit! Wether you want one or not!
Really? That's so nice! Unfortunately, I am in central New York so it would be quite a long drive haha.
 
I'd give you a frag of mine but... Even longer drive.
Yes, absolutely. That's so nice of both of you though! I really appreciate it! :)
