Bob and all, it looks like this thread will win Thread of the Month. When that occurs, it is listed in Reefkeeping.com which many people read. When my 280g thread was highlighted, for that month my thread got 40,000 views. Same for other threads in the past. Now think about your videos, and what will happen if 10,000 people view them. Hopefully your bandwidth will be able to keep up.
 
Travis, those are great. Thanks for posting them. Do I know this anonomous person? Do they post on RC ever?
 
Travis,

Great looking tank! Thanks for posting :)

Adam,

Do you have an anemone in your tank? Great song, love your clowns :)

No that is just a really bleached torch, that I think is slowly dying.

I think you're right Marc... It does look like "we've" done it ... all of you hear that have posted and watched the videos on this thread... There's no way that it could have happened with out you folks.... My involvement was just the idea and a small amount of "leg work" if you will to get folks to put their work here in this thread....

Marc, I'v just checked my account info and I've got 200gig of bandwidth/month on my site so do you think that's sufficient..?? I hope so .. But if not I can always upgrade.... As you are well aware, I'm very new at the web hosting/design thing and I've noticed that you've been talking a little bit about that end of it in your thread... If you don't mind I may send out some PM's to you and Adam for help and advice... I'd like to host videos for folks too to help take the burden off you guys but right now I think it would be a disaster waiting to happen until I get better "aquainted with the process....


Oh and before I forget.... Nice video Adam good luck with the mandarin....

Bob 200gb of bandwidth is more than enough, I currently have 170gb and even when I had all those vids before I deleted them was only using about 50gb a month.

Great ... Thanks Adam for letting me know that ... I really don't know why I'm so worried though, I've only got "three" videos on my site .....:lol:

You'll have to "school" me on how to host videos... Perhaps an educational PM might help..?? ( Course I could always read the help or getting started files.... but that would be too easy...LOL )..

I think I'm getting all video-ed out :lol:

Here is the latest of my 67g, breaking my most basic rule of having EVERYTHING in focus, called "leave the capsule ....if you can".

640 x 480 pixels, 48.6 MB, 4:31 minutes....

Dang, the link is not working, nor are the other videos from my site :confused: Will find out the problem and see what can be done :)

Okay, it seems like the problem was with my new PC. Link should work for everyone :)

At the time that the 1700 thread came out he wished to remain anonymous. Only because he is very busy with work and family and when he acknowledges that it is his tank, you know he is going to get floode with questions in threads, pm's, and emails. His family comes first and he doesn't want to sacrifice time with them. He did come out a day or 2 ago and say that the tank was his in the thread, but that he won't be able to answer questions on a regular basis. He has been an RC member for a couple years but only has 100 posts. He is one of the most intellegent people I've met so he may not post a lot but the posts he does make are very valuable.
 
I'll have to find that thread. Tanks like that need a username associated with them, even if they don't have time to post. Heck, how do I have time with all the water in my home? :lol:

Bob, you'll have enough bandwidth. Others may find that their bandwidth won't keep up. One saving grace is that there are so many videos on the first page that people will probably pick a few and move on rather than viewing every last one of them.

Beverly must have unlimited bandwidth. :lol: Another 50 megger!
 
<b>Here is the latest of my 67g, breaking my most basic rule of having EVERYTHING in focus</b>

Wow, you really did break that rule. I honestly don't know how you accomplished that. ;)
 
Marc, what month/year were you TOTM? Also, what's with your avatar these days? It has that black bar through it?

Travis, are we allowed to 'know' the ID of the reefer 'God' if we promise not to PM/question, etc.??? (pleeeze). I can't fathom a tank that size! Cool that he has his priorities so in line though.

RYAN!! Hey, we missed you..get some stuff going for us..have your daughter narrate her summer if need be.

Beverly, yours should be a Media Player skin..very cool! Did you see my use of the song for one of the microscope vids? (I have to toute (tout?) the scope stuff sometimes, 'I' at least enjoy them.

Adam, your tank is looking nice and filled out - I have an anemone I had to remove, he's in a holding tank..my other huge one I'm keeping. Let me know if you'd like it (freebie), he's a good clowny home.

Bob, my average per day has never exceeded 2gig..and we have a lot of folks hitting the site for non-reef stuff. You should be able to check your daily/monthly usage and remaining from whoever your host is. Mine has a 'site stats' page.

Have you guys noticed how FEW people have voted in general for the thread poll?? Where has everyone on RC gone? I can't believe the numbers are so low, but, congrats Bob, hands down you've got it!
