Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Hi Joel, I don’t know if you remember me, I used to be on here frequently when you first started this thread in June 2023. I would go with the first five footer over that one if I had to choose. The one I’m eyeing is slightly over 5’x25”x22”. I really wanted a five footer.
Are you from the time of that famous phrase?
Ok I'm done ;) :face-with-tears-of-joy:

Yes I was and I thought, this is going to be the shortest thread ever!
 
@Linlox , we all go by first names, I might have missed it, but do you care to share yours?
I would, except this is a public forum and my name is unique enough to single me out on the interwebs and especially in the area I live (has happened in the past as there are some crazy people). Sorry, should probably just pop smoke and refrain from posting on r2r, it was the only social site I participate in, and it was fun to meet you all.

Well I wouldn't go that far you are now part of our family and our friend.
Remaining nameless is all good with me and everyone else.
We enjoy your posts a lot!

No no, we don’t need a first name, some don’t and we don’t care.

It's not mandatory, don't worry about it, but I'll put my hand in the fire for all the people in this thread, we're family here, but if you don't feel comfortable it's understandable, can we call you lin?
 
lin is good.
Trust me, we are fine with it, we have had others that didn’t for their own reasons and it’s fine, glad you didn’t leave Lin ( my uncle’s name was Lyne). I want to see that buck you take.
 
haha to be fair, i will respond to many names, profane and otherwise ;)
I have 3 teenagers so I understand completely. ;)
 
social media has from the beginning always made me uncomfortable. never participated in the myspace, facebook, etc etc. When i started reefing you had clubs, swaps, quality lfs nearby to meet people and share the hobby with, no social media needed. Now living in the boondocks and the age we are in, this is the only social interaction to the hobby for myself, and i assume many of us.
 
So, just as my life goes, the tank FURTHEST away is pretty sweet.
It's a 150g tall, 4x2x31.
Not 5 feet but...
that is a pretty sweet size, reaching down 31 inches to get a frag that fell down into the only spot your tongs dont reach is fun also. 5 foot tanks always seemed pretty rare, find many used?
