well, gee whiz, thanks for all the kind words.
hello everyone

heh, yeah, I had to idle everything down to a minimum for a while there and I was hard pressed to even keep up with the tanks idled down. VHO's and softies was it. In fact if not for bowser (the royal gramma), I probably would have shut it down for a couple of years there.
But, things have changed, and I have the time to play again. I have been getting the two remaining tanks ready for stony corals again since xmas. The chaeto wad is finally starving out. It is ready. fragged the bujeezus out of a poor gorgonian today just to get my chops back a little.
It is weird being out of the loop for a couple of years. I still can't believe how they named all the zoas

I'm probably old-tech now with my brand new ushio 10kK DE I still have sitting here.
dave, if you need orange skirt zoas, I got your back
DJ??????? wow! yeah, all you guys are going waay back aren't you. the breakfast place swap with adam. I can't think of one before that one.
so, look forward to seeing everyone as I get back in to the swing of things. starting with the swap.
