What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I think you got the wrong artist!.


This song/video has everything, Kim Basinger, Mary Jane and necrophilia ( come on Tom what were you thinking?)!
 
Forgot to post a picture of my plate last night. Got some surf and turf going on. Not my first choice of surf but not my last. I’d prefer what Mike and Paul eat 3 x a day.

My man! A jar of horseradish is out on my table for every meal as well!
 
Well looks like my black eyed Susan’s are on the way out. First picture about 10 days ago and bottom today.

The 'tomato' is probably shading it sir. Better to burn it down!
 
Water test on my new tank seemed to go well. Nothing wet when I got up this morning. Gonna do a final inspection tonight after work, then drain it and start hooking up an ato, dosing lines, heater and inkbird. Yall think old coraline is worth getting super finicky about or probably fine to get the loose stuff and call it good?
Depends on how OCD you are Mike. It doesn't need to be spotless, just knock off the loose stuff.
 
Thank you Paul!! Glitter bomb goni with some SpongeBob zoas in the background.
Now you just need a Patrick chalice, Sandy favia and Squidward elegance.
 
Hey Keith! Glad to see you're back. I was getting a little overwhelmed trying to carry the Reef Squad in your absence. We need a little bit of what you're cooking!

I appreciate that brother. I was checking in, just not posting a whole lot because ...well, I was busy. You seem to have had a handle on it. I commented on a couple of your posts your answered.
I hope you are doing well my friend!

You left out the rarest and most beautiful one, the Gary gsp ( meow)!
 
Remember when I posted a picture of what looked like a budding off of my chalice! I took it out to frag it yesterday and check out the skeletal growth under the budding part.

Ive never seen that type of growth on a chalice before Kevin
 
Anyone have any experience with these tanks? I'm thinking I might get a slightly larger tank than my 6 gallon pico.
No experience but a lot of people have them and make them look really nice!
 
Good morning Joel! Are you getting your daughter’s car in the shop today?
Dealership said they can't touch it until they put a new battery in it.
