Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
As much as I love them that’s why I have never gotten one. I know people keep chocolate chip starfish and chop off legs to feed them but that is not very nice.
Maybe. But they probably taste better than plain vanilla ones….
 
Very nice Kev but WWC is one of the most expensive vendors out there . I got my Stylo from Hellfire Frags for 20 bucks. I hope they’re nice and fluffy.
 
I would say chilly but not cold. It was 39 when I left home and it supposed to get to 69 today.
It’s 41 right now up here in Beantown with 52 and cloudy for a high

I am the same way. They are beautiful but I couldn't do that to a starfish...
 
Hope everyones coffee-tea- or what ever you drink to begin the day is super amazing...
Waiting on all the paper work for the small side hustle the girl and I going to start...
She really wants me to stop the stuff I do...take super early retirement and get out..or at least go to contract-private sector work
