Texas is taking over!!!! Seems to be a lot of people joining from Texas lately. I would move back there in a heartbeat.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome!

Best advice I can give you is to always remove the frag plugs from your coral and to never think your tank is bulletproof. The minute you skip a consistent regiment like water changes, dosing, or parameter testing, is the minute your on here asking "what happened!?

".

HAHA! It's like touching things in public. You never know where that frag plug has been!

They carry things that I like to describe as STDs hehe.. Bryopsis, flat worms, bubble algae, pyramid snails. Nasty things
