More chances at greatness today. Don't let them pass you by without capitalizing on them.

We're all woking today except that Tom guy @tharbin but he's earned his non-working status. I'm just a working man.

Bass are fun to catch! Used to go fishing on the lake with my dad back when we had a lake house. We would try to go for striped bass, but usually would end up with crappie and spotted bass.

Good morning Kevin! Nice score on those euphyllia!
Sorry to hear you got crabs in Cleveland. Does your wife know about this? They have a shampoo you can use to get rid of those.

HOW IMPORTANT ARE FISH TO MAKING A REEF TANK FEEL COMPLETE?

  • Essential! A reef needs fish movement and personality

    Votes: 8 50.0%

  • Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

    Votes: 3 18.8%

  • Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose

    Votes: 3 18.8%

  • I’ve kept a fishless reef (details in the comments)

    Votes: 1 6.3%
