Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
@WalkerLovesTheOcean So I've been quietly watching and asking about your tank lately (especially your gonis) for a reason. Ive killed both gonis I've had but they are magnificent creatures and I don't like anything get the best of me. Even though things still do sometimes lol.
When VintageReefer dropped that 45% off code to sbb I couldn't help myself. I bought 6 peep 😬 👀.
I picked three and bought another 3 pack of their choice. After the code, those 3 were like $60. It was a no Brainerd when I saw the selection they were choosing from. Check this out.

What day does SBB ship and what day are they estimated to arrive?

I almost jumped on that sale as well. If I documented all of my online coral purchases…95% of them have occurred 11 pm or later. Maybe I’m delirious at that point and just click buy.

I’m a fan of some gonis too. Back in the day nobody could keep them alive. Called them 6 month corals.

I have 13 or so in my tank:

I tried. nope. can't do it again.
To be fair, I think it is something that, every person you know that likes it, didnt like it till they tried a few times. I've never met anyone that just loved it right of the bat. Its an acquired taste. I acquired it probably the 3rd or 4th time I tried it
 
We're the only advocates these kids have brother. Yall 10000% did the right thing.
Thanks bud! I just knew a high fever was nothing to play around with. My wife is a worry wart about some stuff, but I take fevers more seriously than she does lol

That is beautiful, my goodness! I cant wait to see your gonis. They are going to be beautiful and they will thrive! I cant wait to see lots of photos!
 
What day does SBB ship and what day are they estimated to arrive?
Depends. They text you after the sale to tell you when they're planning on shipping. Usually they'll ask what day works for you. Unlike a lot of the bigger stores, they don't let you pick ahead of time with your "box" unless they've changed since I last bought from them.

that just sounds weird. "can't wait to see your gonis"?

That's great because until around 4-5 pm on weekdays there's no one in the house.
