I can't thank my gifter enough, this is exactly what I needed!! Dot's pretzels are one of my favorite snacks too! Then pen is beautiful, it will be used frequently.
Thank you so much!! Have a wonderful Christmas and God bless!! Untitlessd.png
I just got some Cinnamon Sugar flavored Dot's Pretzels and I highly recommend them. It's like eating buttery frybread coated with cinnamon and sugar.

So I got home from my work trip at 2AM this morning and the first thing I did when I got up was open up my gifts from my Secret Santa, Doug.

I thought, "how nice he sent a Christmas card." Then I proceeded to open the card. I don't usually talk to myself out loud. This morning was different. "WHAT, WHAT, WHAT!" Doug your generosity is astounding. Thank you sir and I hope you and your family have an amazing Christmas and 2023 as well!

With sincere gratitude,

Billy

My Secret Santa was very generous this year. I have been especially blessed. I would love anything anyone gave me but they went above and beyond. I received 9 different zoas today.

I’ll add better pictures after they open up and I use my lenses.
THANK YOU SECRET SANTA!!!

OMG!!! I just wanted to make a quick post to let people know how excited I am and how great my day started today. Morning routine is I go through my emails to check my business and see what's going on. I received the message that I have a shipment coming from aqua SD this week they were reaching out to me to make sure I would be home. I am so freaking excited to see what is coming. Just like everyone else on here collecting Coral is at the top of my list. Thank you thank you thank you so much to my secret Santa I really can't wait :) :) yay me

Little unexpected, coco variety pack to go with my mug :cool:

You'll have to let me know how you like them. I ordered some for my MIL too as she likes a good cup of cocoa.

Glad you enjoyed the personalized cup! Of course I was hoping they would get delivered at the same time, but alas the cocoa came a bit late.

I just realized you are the owner/inventor of slide-loc. Ordered one from you many moons ago when you first started out. Still use it to this day when I'm traveling to different LFS's and buying frags.

Let me know how you like the fish food. Is it just going to be used as fish food? I want to try it one day for my starfish.
The more I use it, the more my fish, and inverts are digging it. Think they might have just been scared of food stuck to the glass at first. So I started sticking it to my feeding ring, and they are used to it now, and will eat it off the glass.

They like it so much, and I do too as it doesn't just float away or down the overflow. It all gets eaten.

I do find the powder kind of a PITA to mix up, so I just bought the premade stuff that you can just stick to whatever you want.

Thank you Secret Santa! The TARDIS is definitely finding a place in one of my tanks

I wonder how much that would increase your tanks capacity, I mean, the door is clearly open, and it's bigger on the inside.

I love Gonis and Euphyllia. Maybe too much

Just got mine in today and while everybody got awesome gifts. Who got a custom card from a secret elf as well? I was more excited to see the children getting into it than the gifts from Santa himself
