When I was starting my very first reef tank, I found this site when I'd just gotten in my clean up crew. I was watching a hermit crab and thought to myself, "Reefing is just like that hermit crab. You have to sift through tons of *&^% before you find something you need or want." Hence the name Scavenger.

Have always loved seahorses.

Went for 3 months without them & bought another 4 captive raised kudas for my frag tank

This is a nick name given to me in High School. They also called me "sky" a lot and I use that one too. I flew my first radio control airplane when I was about 5 yrs old. I started building balsa kits shortly after that. Got my first radio when I was about 12 yrs old by the time I got into high school I was doing stunts with planes that impressed my friends. I got the nick name in 1970. I was rear ended a little over 2 years ago and it did permanent damage to my optic nerve so I cant fly anymore yet I still have about 50 airplanes and 8 helicopters.

Sorry about your eye damage
Interesting that my brother's nickname is also Sky and he probably got it in the 1970's as well - but because he is tall.
