Hello Everyone,

Just stopping by to say Hi. I know it has been a while.

I hope everyone's tanks are doing well.

Anyone going to be going to Reefapalooza in Orlando this year?
We will 100% be there with the Reef2Reef booth!
 
Good morning Paul! What type of commission did you work out with Corals.Com? 🤔

My newest go-to for when I'm in a Latte mood is "Orange Blossom". It is espresso, steamed whole milk, cinnamon, mocha, and candied orange.

Not to be a Donald Downer but $600 for a 3.5" piece of worm rock is insane. I have another word I'd like to use in front of the word insane but TOS prevents me from using it.

In the early to mid 90's one could get Christmas Tree Worm rock for not a whole lot more than regular live rock. I had a 200gal reef and all of the rock in it was worm rock and I had about 200lbs of rock in that tank. I realize this was 30 years ago but $600 for a piece that weighs less than a pound is nuts. The sad thing is that people will pay that price thereby keeping those prices "normal".

I agree I think they are lovely but too expensive for me.
