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

Bad news... The Post Office is saying they delivered my lights 4 days ago. Either the Post Office did what they've done best these past few months and screwed something up or someone stole the box from my porch (while I was home???) or...
Sorry Tim
 
Remora.
Harder to find parts for though.
Octo is great with replacement parts.
Interesting I figured the octo would be better not going too lie. Why is the remora better?

The remora has been around forever, it seems.
All the people I've ever known who ran them said they worked great and had zero issues with them.
But new, they were very expensive.
Like I said I've never run one but they are high quality and work well.
I had the octo hob and it was fine but I went to a sump and never used it again.
It was just OK IMO.
A sump would be so much easier for you and cheap too.

Yes I wish I had a sump I don't have enough room in my cabinet. He's offering me the remora for 38$ with shipping.
 
Time to feed the corals ;)

So the first person documented their results with the goni dip, and they are saying it's working!!! This makes me happy.
Happy for you and the person your method is working for, Walker
 
I'm with Kev on this Luis maybe take the picture again with a Heineken in it! ;)
And if you guys think I'm giving Heineken to the corals? Maybe I do, lol.

Hey Mike, can you do a welfare check on Paul?
I was going to wait until tomorrow, which is the 5 day, to tag him because he hasn't been online since Friday afternoon, but you got ahead of me.
