Wow yeah you are pretty far. I don't think I know where hollywoods is at. It just sucks over here not much people in the hobby. Really new myself, I've only been in it for about 4 months. I've been following your 12o build.

Dang sorry that sucks! Mine is only 30 minutes away. I'm making a ride out to Topeka this weekend so I can check on out there. Have you ordered things before from there ? I always look but don't know how it would go for me getting them sent. Like what happens if I'm not home ?

I am fairly new to this hobby tries it for a short while years ago. Will be setting up a BC32 in the coming weeks in my classroom at school for my students to learn from. Would love to connect with local area folks to learn from and share info.

Same here we lost a coral banded shrimp to a coral dip misapplication, and lost a Diamond watchman Goby for 3 weeks until we found him under a sponge in the return chamber. Did a water change today

We are looking ok I think. I posted a video today in a thread about Water changes? Take a look.

I haven't cleaned the glass for a couple of days so it's not real clean. I have been downstairs building my 144 gallon. In the plumbing stage. I'll look for your video. We are sitting Fishless right now do to what I think was velvet.
