Yeah, I'm just trying to infuse some life into an almost otherwise dead local board. There have been a few things posted lately but not many pics (other than Hypertek99, nice corals by the way) so I was hoping to see some other people's "pride and joy." It doesn't matter what you have, whether or not it is "cool", "limited edition" or expensive. Some of my favorite pieces are junk to other folks, they just need to be given a fancy name to be considered the next best thing since sliced bread. (I'll have to put up a pic of 'Polyps McGee' once it grows out... Matt knows what I'm talking about.) I tend to think our local group has gotten away from ome of the main aspects of the hobby, which is rejoicing in the fact that these complicated (and some very simple) creatures can grow and thrive in a glass box in our homes and not just in the ocean where they belong.
If I am wrong speak up... If not show me some pictures... Heck you don't even have to be local to SWVRC to post a reef pic if you want people to see it and appreciate it here. I know I will appreciate it, regardless of how insignificant you think it may be. Everyone is at different stages in this hobby...
Alright, my drunken tirade is over, let's see some pics!!!
To answer your question Alex, I have 2 40 Breeders, a 30 gallon sump and a 30 gallon frag tank (the same drilled 30 gallon you gave Stripe & I) all plumbed together. We werent ready to setup the separate system yet and I needed to temporarily house some corals for folks during their tankwise transitional periods. (Thank god my system is kicking *** (relatively) and not killing their pieces.) It feels like a lot more responsibility when you are watching after corals that friends want back and not just your own stuff... It is a good thing though, as I am getting some much needed practice at husbandry and it is one of the few reasons why my tanks look as good as they do. My task now is to keep it up and strive to do even better.
Once again, SHOW ME THE PICS!!!
