Welcome @HawaiianVikingsFan I started my reefing in Hawaii in my teens. It is frustrating isn’t it? BTW, Hawaii people are supposed to be Raiders fans

Going to take some hustle to fill the tank but there is a decent local community out here.

I think it is more important than ever to support this hobby out here in Hawaii. Especially after the last bleaching events. The actual reefs have been decimated. A far cry from how it looked 10 years ago when i first swam through them.

Welcome to R2R!!! Where in Hawaii? My wife and I have never stopped talking about moving there since our honeymoon 6 years ago.

I live on the Big Island in Captain Cook. I manage a coffee farm in Kona. Doesn't pay that much but I get free Kona Coffee!

Welcome back

True, one of the few places you can go harvest your own coral but it can only be softies. It is illegal to own any stony coral at all. There are no LFS to buy from on Big Island either. It will have to be all harvested and traded with local reefers. I'm up to the challenge though.
