"Your tank is only in it's 5th month, which is why we are trying to give you some direction and point out potential pitfalls. I would like nothing more than to see pictures of your tank 8 years from now, my friend."

JB all I can tell you is that my reef is doing well and yes, corals are coming in faster than you can count. And Obviously I was not comparing myself with Mike Paletta tank, I know I am rookie compared to the guy or to you for that matter. My point is, I am doing certain things my way, and yes I do ask many times for advice(most often I just read it). I never put my pictures up to teach people a lesson on anything, I put them up so they can see the beautiful reef I have.

Just in case you never saw this post, I will paste it here for you. It comes from the first post I made on my 180 thread.

"This dream got started when I would just drop my jaws looking at reefs from Pucci, MtnDewMan, Tubs, Steve Weast, JB NY, AcroporaUK, 64Ivy, reefbaum and Robz just to name a few. I just wanted someday to give myself a chance."

I have always admired your skills as a reef care taker ad I value your opinions, you have been one of my role models.

Yes, they are all from his tank. Yes, I took them all myself with the exception of the top shots that he sent me and the ones Robz took himself.

He uses a 3/4HP UNI chiller.

No need to apologize. I hadn't seen this thread in a while and it was nice looking through it again.

WELCOME TO REEF SANCTUARY!!!
