nice! can we see a full tank shot

 

[tubs]

Tim,

Glad to see things have recovered well. Wish I could have made it when I was in the area for WMC. Say save me a piece of the horrida OK. I saw it over at Paul's (prodman) and man did it look so vibrant - it definately is the best looking horrida I've seen. Also is that lime in the sky from me as well from way back when?

Here is a picture of Prodmans I took last week:

Tim - I'm telling you, that pink lemonade is ripe for fragging

 

[tfp]

jordan, i'll try to get a full tank shot later tonight. but they always come out poor

john, come on up and do the Sierra Century with me and you can see the tank and i'll send you home with some of the horrida . it looks so different in everyone elses tank, i think it colors up best under 400w 20k's. yep, that lime and that "crowing thin stag" came from you too

karl, c'mon now...my 1st PL is already promised out

 

[Unarce]

Just messin' with ya'

You haven't gotten into LPS yet, have you Tim? I'm actually trying out a couple of pieces myself

 

[tubs]

Dang - I need to get on the bike first. It's been so tough this year cuz of the weather and being so busy. Maybe I need to pick up one of those Orbea Orca's to really get me motivated. Planning on a ride later on today though hopefully ;D

That Lime in the Sky looks really nice gowing sideways. Did you do that on purpose?

Tim, I'm sorry but those pictures are horrible.






They absolutely do no justice to the true beauty that those corals exhibit in real life!





Those are some trophy peices and the colonies are really growing into some interesting shapes.





Fantastic as usual, but please ignore everyone's requests for frags (except me of course, I'll take one of each! )


BTW, that ER skimmer is doing a fantastic job. Thank you. Now I need you to post a pic of the recirculation mod you did on yours so that I can drill a couple of holes in mine!

[SIZE=3[color=red]]GOREGOUS PICTURES!!!![/color][/SIZE] Your tank never seizes to amaze me.

Hey Rich - how many skimmers and what type of skimmer do you have on your tank? I need to do the recirculating mod on my ASM G3. Have all the parts, just need to do some drilling and figure out how to feed it.

 

[thereefgeek]

Just one skimmer: the Euro Reef 8-2 I bought from Tim. This thing's enormous and I moved my DIY skimmer into my 20 gallon quarantine tank. You can see the ER over on the left, inside the main sump.

Tim & Tubs,

Those Orbeas are off the hook! I became a fan when I first saw that Spanish team riding them (Euskatel - Euskadi). That burnt orange paint job is killer! Maybe we should have a ride for reef guys one day soon. It'll keep us guys who spend too much time in front of the tank (speaking of myself, of course) motivated!

 

[tubs]

We should start a cycling reef club .

I set my boss up with the Euskatel orange just a couple of months ago and now I'm scared to ride with him. He went up Sunol/Calaveras last weekend and he beat his all time split by 1 minute for what is normally a 10 minute split for him. Besting by 1 minute in 10 minutes is incredible!

man I tell you that only does that bike perform - it is sexy and is a woman magnet on the road!!

 

[tfp]

oh heck yeah fellas! i'm always down for some ridin' but my dang allergies are KILLIN me this season so far most of my ridin' has been indoors thus far in spin class.

this timetrial frame/fork has got me going with mad crazy thoughts!
Ordu TT frame

my boss got a Felt F2C last year but i'm still holding him at bay

mike, i say we try out the climb in tubs' backyard soon. it looked brutal on the tour and john would get a good laugh as we struggled up it! :lol:

 

[Wee-Reef Master]

Dude, that ORBEA TT bike is insane! You know me. I've drooled over the Cervelo P3, but I think I've found a new TT bike goal! Heck, I'll try anything Tim, but be warned, I might hurl on THAT climb! My son is getting slammed on allergies as well, and today's big winds over here are making it worse. I hope it settles down soon and you can get in some outdoor riding! I was out a day ago....great riding weather!

 

[tfp]

still experimenting with my camera...

 

[FunGuy]

Excellent pics. Those glowing green colors are pretty catchy. I particularly like pic 2 because it's pretty clear and interestingly patterned.

 

[tfp]

for my cycling buddies...did a mountain bike race last night vs the road thing nearly 2 years since i've been on the mtn bike...dusty, intense, painful, climbing and allergies but SO worth the suffering!

 

[Elim]

You a nut Tim
