London excursion to Dave's to buy his goodies - Sunday Oct 6th

Joking about the duds obviously lol.  You nailed the names Jerry!

I can't remember exactly what everyone else got but I'm pretty sure they will chime in soon enough.

Thanks for having us over Dave, your system is just as amazing in person as the pictures lead one to believe.  Always great meeting other reefers and getting to see their tanks!

I picked up... a free beer and a cool budweiser red light.  Can't believe he just let me walk right out with it.

Nice picks! You will love the op.... I have mine in pretty high light and it pops the blue/green body nicely along with the orange polyps. A great looking tenius for sure!!

[curiousphil]

Haha I didnt think you actually took that

 

[Reef Hero]

Dave gave you that?!? I'm jealous.....

 

[Salty Cracker]

Well....I don't know as if he so much as gave it to me, as he only put a couple of screws into it and a hi def security camera on it... which basically said he was just waiting for someone to grab it.  right? 

 

[Neopimp]

Don't worry, there is plenty more in the ocean if they don't....

Just kidding. It seems like I might have turned a corner. I have noticed that everything I have added over the past month to two months is holding on strong, great extension and coloration. I haven't had a piece go sideways in a fair amount of time now. I am really hoping that the tank is now on the up and up. It would be amazing to see some of the older stuff color back up in the coming months. Crossing my fingers and knocking on wood that now my routine has stabilized to the point where I might be able to bring some color back for some of the older fraggies.

Must

maintain

routine

I grabbed a matrix and a strawberry shortcake.  Couldn't resist.  I had to chop down a colony of yellow montipora spogodes to make room for these beauties.  Oddly enough, getting rid of that spongodes clears the last of the IA coral from the tank.
