What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Go get them tiger! Have a great weekend Remi.
Kev, what city are you near? I was thinking if you ever frag some of your hammers, we could trade if you aren't that far.
 
Hi everyone! We are home. The stress test didn't find any issues so they put a heart monitor on him for him to wear for two weeks and told him to follow up with his regular doctor.
 
Time to celebrate the week end

That is great news!!
 
That's 100% the way they are. The whole band stayed local. Super cool guys. The bassist Todd Harrell, used to book our fishing boat for fishing charters back before Hurricane Katrina. He was really cool and down to earth too. He did end up in prison eventually for DUI'S though
Did he go bass fishing???


















See what I did there?????

Of the sign, or his wife's expression when she sees the sign, or the bruises on his face after she reads the sign?

I’m in the suburbs of Youngstown. About an hour from Cleveland and Pittsburgh. If I recall about an 3 hours from Detroit, but it has been a few years. The last time I was in Michigan we drove into Indiana then north to a resort on Gun Lake for my cousin’s son’s wedding.

That's great to hear that you guys are back home. Hopefully all of this is nothing serious!

Fantastic Amanda, great to hear!

Speaking of bruises... We decided we wanted to do something special for the moms at our church for Mother's Day. When people were asking for recommendations, I suggested rolling pins.
 
I absolutely concur John. I dose phyto, do broadcast feedings and have quite high flow for my euphyllia. I believe it has been said so much that they need low flow that it has become what people believe. The more I observe my euphyllia and monitor reactions, etc... more flow is needed than people realize. I've seen many grow tanks/farms with SPS level flow for euphyllia making their tentacles move rapidly in the flow. I'm not saying putting them in direct flow of a powerhead 4" away, but alternating, indirect flow to keep them "flowing".
I couldn't agree more. An increase in flow made EVERYTHING look better. I get better extension on euphyllia, and even my big lazy meat corals inflate and spread more as I increase flow on the bottom.

All three please... :face-with-tears-of-joy:

Wait! Can you add me to your will so I can have your tank?
