45 Galllon Cube. My dream tank...only smaller!

That's cool Bro.. I am going to have to do some research on shipping to make sure everything gets to you healthy.. I will take another FTS in a week or so and PM it to you..
 
sounds good. Im thinking styrofoam box with heat packs and the bags wrapped in newspaper. Thats how all the shipments came when I used to work at LFS'. Not too big a deal but I understand if you dont want to do it. Its part of the reason I dont get things shipped to me. Its a hassle so corners get cut and you end up with rtn and/or cold water in the bags. Thats why I say id rather get a few things from you so it makes it worth your time and effort financially. Also the extra water will help keep in the heat. Overnight would be priority one. Im guessing it wont be cheap...But if you dont kill me on the coral I would rather pay extra for good shipping know what I mean? At least that way whatever I get from u will actually be alive and well and not a waste of time and money.
 
Don't worry about getting killed with prices by me Bro.. I am definitely not in the hobby for the money aspect of it... I just simply enjoy it and many of the friends I've made along the way.. We will certainly work it out. Have some really nice specimen containers that i can get from a fellow club member... That may do the trick along with the other stuff that you mentioned...
 
Extremely nice seeing that ya guys are sharing frags and hence having a piece of you in another's tank. This is why RC is so special. A place to share, meet people and make life long friends.
Keep it up guys!

Happy Reefing!!
 
Yay!!! Made it through the whole thread. This was a great read. Thank you very much for answering my question regarding the worm. I will look up the trap you suggested and give that a whirl. Keep up the great tank, hope you continue to improve your health. Merry Christmas. Thanks.
 
Glad to see your tank is still looking good. Especially considering what you just went through. (Although I'm still a little worried about you when I have to go to page 4 to find your thread.)

Now that you are back to considering more coral selections, it sounds like you are back on track.

Looking forward to seeing more of that DIY handywork here soon.
:)
 
I'm alive and well. So are you saying I talk too much? Lol all I can say is shut up and listen! Lol I've had that problem my whole life ya know. Always have an opinion.
 
I'm still maintaining the tank with the help of my wife and an app called aquaplanner. It's a great app that all reefers should have. Helps to remember all the little things that we have to do on a daily and yearly basis. It's also a journal and has a chemistry graph that maps your water tests. Best 2$ I've spent in this hobby especially given my compromised mental state here lately.
 
I'm starting physical therapy next week I believe so that ought to start getting me back to normal. I've just been depressed lately being isolated and helpless. I miss keeping my son and I'm tired of watching tv. Plus my wifi hotspot is broken so I havent had Internet other than my phone. I'll get through this though I promise and will be back to building crap soon! Thanks for all your concern. Means a lot to me really! Talkin with all u is my only social experience that I get these days so I'm serious.
 
Happy New Year Buddy! All things concerned, things can always be a lot worse.. That's what keeps me humbled on a day to day basis... On Christmas day watching the news, I learned of a woman in CT, who lost here whole family due to a fire... As I watched this, I peered around the room to see my family.... Happy, healthy and laughing amongst one another. I thought about my woes and all of a sudden, they didn't seem all that bad. Actually, I felt grateful.. Keep your head up Bro!
