Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
@WalkerLovesTheOcean I got an orange/golf hammer in my shipment today. How is yours doing? Mine is still closed up, but I can't wait to send you a pic once it opens. I think the hammer is such a beautiful coral, and these color variations make such a scape when arranged together
I've never seen a golf hammer. I have, however, used my golf club similar to a hammer when I slice on my drive!
 
Next season will be much more legit! This is my first time ever tapping trees and making my own syrup! Here's hoping tonight's goes well!
Good luck! The end product will be worth it, nothing beats the taste of real maple syrup. Well, except maple syrup on BACON!!
 
"Another coral???.... well it is really pretty... :star-struck:" is exactly how the conversation went :face-with-tears-of-joy::face-with-tears-of-joy: to be fair, I was working in cumberland so I get per diem, so I just usually spend all of that at the coral shop on the way home lol
Good way to think of that!
 
She gets hours of shopping for surplus baby clothes while I chase the baby under/over/around/through clothes racks :face-with-tears-of-joy: :face-with-tears-of-joy: :face-with-tears-of-joy:
Sounds like a win/win situation... well, no, not really... I'm trying to be supportive brother!

Are all states having issues with their drivers license offices or is it just NC? The wait to make an appointment is more than 90 days at any of them within a 3 hour drive of our house. You can do a walk in option but you need to get there before 8 and wait all day...
