Hello everyone. Not sure who is left from the old group but I was a HVRK member in early 2000's. Nice to see the name is still somewhere but haven't seen any familiar names besides Ross. Be great to catch up with old members and meet new ones. I'm nowhere near as involved in the hobby as I was but would like to be. I currently have a 60 fowlr with 100 gallon sump and I just set up a small bow front (I believe 33) with a 15 gallon sump, and 3 gallon fuge. I will attach a few pics but they are not new. I'll post more later.

Looking to buy frags for the new tank. I miss my old systems for sure. And certainly miss the great times we all had with our meets. When I hosted, it was one of my fondest memories. So many members showed up. Great food and lots of adult beverages. Raffles and frag swap galore!

I will look for some videos/pics to share. So hello to all members. New and old. And a special thanks to Ross for pointing me in this direction. Wasn't sure the group was still active.

Welcome, happy to start you off with some pieces. Not selling, just trade or give away.

Always have some Grube's Gorgonia, Photosynthetic purple sponge, some JF Blue Dot shrooms when I trim stuff. Just grows right back, better in your tank than the trash :) Where are you located?

I'm so sorry for your loss. We can catch up another time. What you've got going on is certainly more important; don't be sorry. Prayers sent.

Welcome! That is a unique looking setup, especially the custom controller and racked LR. Neat. Looking forward to seeing it come together. Let me know when you are ready for some fresh cut monti / stylo / birdsnest, stuff like that. Just did some fragging, but should have plenty to trim up again soon.
