Josh! You're still here! Phew. I was feeling like no one I know is here... Not that I've managed to really scour the site... It's changed a bit! Hope all is well :) --Tahl

Hey - it's great to be back after a looooong hiatus! I wonder who's around who remembers me? After all this time, I'm building the reef of my dreams in a gorgeous 150 gal! Here is the foundation for my new reef adventure. Tell me what you think!

Starting over It's been a really, really long time since I've been here. Since I posted this post in particular, it's been a REALLY long time. 12 years. I live half a country away (Kansas), and my masters theses have both paid off. I have a great job, and I've just bought a house for...

Hi everyone! Well, my daughters and I moved to Overland Park, KS in June - dismantled the tank and gave away all the corals, fish and live rock. It was one of the saddest things I've ever had to do, and at the same time, it gave me joy, because I know that my animals ended up in good hands...

It was AWESOME to meet the wonderful volunteers who stayed till the end. You all were great - thanks so much!

I'm all in
