Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
The lil tang - “come on, let’s play tag!”
He's actually about 5 inches.
He's not the photogenic tailspot ;)

The tang is that big?!? Wow, how big is Trigger?

And even big galoofs like to play tag - hehe
 
Kev,
I love how your taking different kinds of photos. (Lighting/filters), of your tank.

It would really be cool if you created an album (that’s a collection of photos for you young ones), with borders, comments, etc. and make a dedicated thread. As you’ve seen, the R2R community , way past this group, has consistently responded with how much they enjoy your photos- whether that be fish, coral or entire DT.

Just a thought

Thanks for the kind words. It’s only a 32 gallon other than maybe one more coral addition I can only take so many pictures. Good news is my gofundme account finally made it over $2! Upgrade will be coming soon!

I can help you reach $5
 
I couldn’t sleep at night knowing you were taking food from your family’s mouths for my upgrade!
Whether it's $2 or $5, I want to see a new build thread for this upgrade!

He's probably 6 but has girth, probably would saute well. ;)
 
Here are some of the new corals I got yesterday.

Really nice selection Parker! Would love to see a full DT photo as you have been filling it up nicely.

How have you been? Is Lacrosse still going? Or are you focused on finals? Or maybe just having fun on the weekends?
