Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Sorry guys, another busy day here. But there was beautiful weather today. I was able to bike 10 miles today!
 
Also my wife took this on Tuesday on the way to Culver's. Just to prove we don't just have cacti in AZ:

It is a field that usually has cotton and next to a Pecan grove.
 
A million years ago, my best friends parents had a slip in SF Bay, right where they built then so named Pac Bell Park.
Upon building, those grandfathered in received 6 games worth of tickets-free.
Good seats too.
We'd stay on the boat.
After the game, we'd pile up the hill, listening for saxophones 🎷.
There were no better times than those...

Why are they all facing away from the camera?
