Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I believe phyto is vital to a reef. You are spot on about natural filtration sir.
Thank you sir! I feel like that thought process can be applied almost anywhere in life
 
What?! The hammer didn't make it brother?
This was a nice orange hammer I bought and it lasted about a week before all tissue receded. The one you gave me the cipro for, is still hanging on! I haven't seen a ton of improvement, but also no further regression. I've been dosing magnesium to get levels up to 1500. This was the other one.

Thank you. My collection is growing whilst I await my new tank.
That is such a cool strategy to building the perfect display. I wish I'd had the room/patience to do this. I believe it's going to pay off in the form of one of the nicest reefs on this site.
 
I had the presence of mind this morning (or rather will power) to snap a shot of breakfast before it was gone:

Give me this every day, looks delicious
 
I am on diet since yesterday and already pics of a whooper and bacon 🥓 🥓 🥓 :star-struck:
Sorry Remi I didn’t know but that place was really cool. They flame broil all their burgers and that’s not even the best part. They allow you to have it your own way so if I would have wanted them to hold the pickles and the lettuce it wouldn’t have upset them!

I showed the shot to my wife and she remarked immediately that I didn't have the will power to snap the pic BEFORE I tested the bacon.

I used to like BK but I think the one we have in town uses old flames...
