This is kind of funny cause this actually happened! This was quoted from March.

1. Rich (Richer) got back into the hobby as a result of this build.
2. Harvey (Mr. Alberta) is "allowed" to get a bigger tank as a result of this build.
3. Russ actually stepped into a fish store and got interested in the hobby again as a result of this build..
4. But Ryan never made it out to see the tank yet, came under the weather the day of the tank party for the old gang.

She's definitely naming your fish while she thought she was unobserved! My wife already named the brittle star in the fuge 'Fred'.

Cute picture. Sandy laughed pretty hard when she saw this. Sandy also told me, "I'd look at your aquarium too if it looked like Dez's".

Love the contrast between the flame angel and the SPS in that shot Dez. New avatar too. Seems to be the running theme tonight lol.

I dig that digi and the gorg. Might have to roadtrip it one day with a bucket of chaetoBalls and do you some sweet sweet TRADING.

More pictures

Pokerstar Monti - base already encrusted on rock - nice growth


This was a brown frag from a friend - turned pink and TONS of growth. Doesn't look like a frag anymore.


Blue Sponge - I've had this for a while and showing growth


Green Birdsnest - grown lots!


I think this is some kind of poccilipora - was quite a bit whiter when I got it, now the colour seems a bit richer


Purple Acro frag that only had 2 branches when I got it


Another acro frag showing good growth


Snappy's Bird of Many colours showing lots of new growth tips


My unknown "Superman" milli that was originally smooth/brown:


Sorry about the dark pictures. I think the exposure or something was too far one way (I know nothing about cameras). Enjoy and thanks as always for looking.

Which Digi did you like - the white polyp, or superman or peaches 'n cream?

Well, if you get that Brazilian, then there might be some sweet trading. But, too bad I don't have a fuge.... Maybe it's better you don't export those green balls....you need them more than I do.
