Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
My goal is to always send different bands and artists people haven't heard of! I am very involved in the underground metal and rock scene. So I keep up to date with most of the metal and rock releases each week. Not to mention I generally don't listen to the "popular bands" but more so the smaller guys, or older stuff.
Kindred sprit!
 
Brother John! How goes it?
Doing good this morning Rock! And im dying to see you inbox some corals this morning my friend. I cant wait to see the sticks!
 
My God, could you even imagine?
If he ever wants a good dose of camaraderie and fellowship, I know a thread with some good people that would certainly have his back.
He was an SBB regular and had a lot of support over there as well. Super nice guy. He works in a mental institution so he also had a lot of good people surrounding him at work.

That's really good to hear

I'll snap some pics once I get them in the tank. My wife is already floating them in the rock curing tote to keep them warm.
 
I forgot to look at new routers. mines getting old.
If you use fiber, and want one with WiFi 7, that supports 10G, then break out your wallet!


Some people refer to the thing Casey Jones is on, in this song, as a rock.


@Gumbies R Us
have you been to the Vortex? I used to like that place. Great burgers. Also liked some place on Moreland. I just remember it was a big red building.
I think some people, in this thread, go to the vortex very regularly!

I do remember Steve. Happy to hear he is bouncing back.

Hey, you, mister, how long you going to make us wait? Where are the pics? Some of us, um, well, lack a little thing called patience.
 
Folks getting cool corals and fancy fish. All I got was this… now I’m going to have to learn how to use it.

That's awesome Chris. All you creators need to make a smorgasbord merch store! Lol

I don't mess around. I like my balls fresh and clean! Because, after all,
my balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right, it's my belief that my clean balls should be held every night.

 
Evening. Hope everyone's well. Wrasse and Gramma aren't happy with each other. They always open their mouths and look at each other.
