Your tank is/ was ridiculously awesome! Thanks very much for your backyard swaps... Only got to go to one but had a good time. Try to keep just a small aquarium maybe? Any who good luck!
 
Hugo, my friend. I am sad to see you go but happy that you described it as taking a break. That shows me that you will not be gone forever. I will be looking forward to the day you make a comeback! Take care my friend!
 
Always enjoyed your backyard frag swap, wish you the best in everything you do and hopefully your break will be short and you will be back into this addicting hobby in no time.
 
Oh wow I can't believe that. I am sad to see you go. You truly were an inspiration to me and I hope you return. I will miss seing your booths at frag swaps.

Oh man Hugo this sucks to hear about your tank issues and you taking a break from the hobby but totally understandable. I'm having issues with my water as well and can't figure it out either :(. Anyways THANKS for the back yard swaps and the frags! Still got them all! :) Whenever you get back in, i'll hook you up with some! Take care!
 
Hugo,

Sorry to hear about your losses. You had one of the nicest tanks in So Cal. I remember when I had a tank crash in the mid 2000's I took a break as well, but now I'm back stronger than ever. I can definitely see you doing the same. When you're back give me a holler. I remember all the nice stuff I got from you. I will return the favor.
 
Hugo
You will be missed, hope to see you back in the hobby.
That's a sham what happen to your tank. Thanks for everything you've doNe for this hobby. Your a good man.
