Hey Rick,

 

I have the corals we traded for the Phos remover a while back. Do you need any that you couldn't get frags of? I have the red table acro but it is much smaller then your was. If you need some corals let me know. My selection isn't huge but you did give me some nice pieces.

Looking good. I can see Robie's influence on the aquascaping. Big open spaces bro!

 

Agreed. I love it, as do the fish.

 

 

Looking good.

Will be TOTM in no time.

 

Khanh,

 

Thanks Khanh: Wish it looked like this when I was WAMAS TOTM (This has a LONG way to go to reach RC TOTM standards)

I should have bought more donuts

 

I think I helped more than Chris. He had the sailor mouth

 

Chris did have a bout of 'potty mouth', but I only saw you watching and bagging up the corals when I said "dont put that in the tank, trash it"

 

 

looks good Rik

 

Thanks Chip. Recognize your sand? (about 1/3 of it came from your tank via Justin)

 

 

I forget when Chris "I'll be there at 8am" Thomas got there? noon?

 

Chris "I'll be there all day, see you at 8am" Thomas arrived ~noon and bailed ~3pm.

I had frags of all the main stuff that died in my frag tank, why they survived in there and not the display I don't know. Thanks for the offer.

 

 

Rick, I like the new look

 

Thanks Tom.

 

 

Nice, Rik. Will have to see the new version in person.

 

I'm home 1pm Thurs ~ 11am Friday PM me if you want to swing by.

 

 

All visitors are welcome Thurday night. Wife and kids not home, my frag tank is full, and my wallet is empty!

That is because Chris using obscenities around your son. Did you not get a whole bunch of food?

Your wallet is always empty since Chris is always taking it.

Rik, sorry I've been AWOL... I would have loved to help. The rockscape looks great, Robie did a fantastic job. I can't wait to see the color arrangement once everything grows in.
