I doubt that Mike. My tank is only 7 months old and is considered a beginners tank IMO. So it may appeal to some and not to others but we all started out somewhere. I learn alot from seeing other peoples tanks and setups and enjoy sharing stories of dos and don'ts. Every tank is different with its own unique qualities and designs. My tank is mostly frags of zoos and some other corals, nothing mind blowing. But I have one fish that most people have not seen before other than pictures. I'll get more interest in him than anything else I'm sure. Which is fine by me. I look forward to seeing your tank Mike. It's going to be a fun day.


A very BIG THANKS to Ivy for setting this up.

I am really looking forward to showing the tank. I have had so much enjoyment (with a pinch of frustration ) this past year...I wish I would have thought about setting up a reef 10 yrs ago...ah the myths I am excited about seeing everyone elses and getting ideas for the new tank.

Hi Ivy

I am looking forward to seeing everyones tanks. You know where I will be all day Saturday? Cleaning up both tanks. You know how lazy I can be. Oh well if it wasn't for these tank tours my tanks would never get cleaned up.

See you all on Sunday!!!

Tom R
