lol!

Those ruins aren't mine, but I do like them. What I like most is that he has them in a reef tank which is not very common, and then he posts the pic in his signature which shows up on every one of his posts. I like it. I'm sure he likes it, and I'm sure he doesn't care what others think about it.

I surely would not put that in my tank. yuck but hey...it's only a matter of personnal taste.

I love sponges, real or artificial.
I kept it for two reasons:

1. My sister gave it to me on my birthday and that's more important than getting a "yuck" from someone for keeping it.
2. And its gonna look good when it blends in coralines, zoas and monti caps take over it like those artificial reefs in the ocean

Like I said, matter of personnal taste. I say yuck to coffee, can't stand that smell of it, hate the taste of it with a passion, yet so many people are addicted to it and can't start their day without it.

I never liked anything that looked "human" made in a tank. No matter what it is. I think it just look out of place and unatural spoiling the scenery. Yet it does have a point, it make the scene in your tank look larger in scale.

You could have a chalice grow on it, or a turbinaria.

Thought I'd drop in to see how this thread has been going. Now Daniella, we put up with a lot from you, but insulting coffee is going too far. If I wasn't enjoying coffee right now, I'd have to ban you for that. Don't do it again.

(I know that since you're French, you can take the joke )

P.S. That ruin is damn ugly -lol

Well I think it looks nice.

I remember a thread on RC many years ago, when a lady was taking some flack for all the fake things in here reef, including the bubbly things. She finally said something like, [I dont recall it all], she was a nurse in a childrens cancer ward and when she came home at night she just liked to sit and look at her little tank with the bubbly things to help her cope after a day there, or something to that effect.

I have never forgotten that. So to each their own. Everyone has to make their little or big world what they wish or perceive to be their creation.

When i post something, I always make sure to be "politically" correct, not to offend anybody. Some people just don't know how to play this.
