What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?

@tbrown here's my winnings I got with the gift card you were kind enough to give me! Thank you so much again I think they will look awesome in my tank. While normally not a fan of auctions, I was a fan of the deals I got. Now if I can just keep them all alive...
Good morning !
Great looking specimens Amanda
 
Good morning and Happy Monday.

All caught up on the food, beer, tattoos, memes but, strangely enough, no music from last night. Maybe because it looks like John @kingranch2003 , Tom @tharbin and I were missing.

Wishing you all a week that brings nothing but whatever makes you pleased to be alive.
We'll have to make up for it tonight Chris since no one PICKED UP OUR SLACK!!!

The guys could've played literally anything that could've beaten whatever that garbage half time show was last night.

In over 20 years of reefing I’ve never had a nem. The reason, they can move to spot against my corals, it can host my clowns and then move to the back of the rockscape taking the clowns with it and lastly people who started with one and suddenly have 12. Why I would like one, they host clowns and some of the BTAs have stunning colors. What say you?
That's how I feel. I love bubble tips, but I said from day one if I wanted to have whatever tank I set up for a long time, so It was either corals OR nems.

We loved the BTA in our tank, but the stress it caused us was not worth it. Everytime we went on vacation, I was always checking cameras to make sure that thing was still alive and not nuking my tank.

That red Goni is gorgeous! @steveschuerger would be so jealous!

I was very surprised that it was that big of a loss. I definitely thought NE would've made it a bit closer, but they had an unbelievable year this year.
 
Yeah, I heard the Ospreys played the Parrots yesterday but somehow the Magic won?
