I’m worried I didn’t come through on what I sent my person... I shoulda just picked off the wish list, I think.

the spirit of giving and generosity is the same!! We're all spreading JOY! I am blessed by watching all of you and seeing the way that complete strangers are acting as a community to share the love and joy of Christmas with one another! Let's all focus on that!

My not-so-secret Santa sent a second box on Saturday. Thanks again to @squaretwelve for being a natural at this Secret Santa game... got a much needed fragging kit!

Whoever is my Secret Santa, thanks so much for my gift!! I just came in with my family from buying toys for the kids we're giving to from the Toy Drive, and my wife says, "hey, there's a package." We were both wondering what it could be until we opened it, and I knew right away! Thanks so much for the awesome gift! I'm gonna put this digital salinity checker to good use!!

Thanks so much for a great ending to a great day!!

"Fra-gee-lay. It must be Italian." I wonder what it could be? I'll open it when I get home from work. Like I'm going to be able to focus now. Thanks SS.

My secret Santa did a great job and went way beyond her duties! First off, I got a gift card for BRS and a message that there was more on the way! Today, a beautiful box arrived, and it was packed full of goodies!

I love it all! There is a card, 3 samples of coral foods, 3 candy bars, a set of frosted snowball scented bath products, coral glue, an adorable festive manatee keychain, 2 cool octopi glasses, a wyze camera, fish-themed cable protectors, and stealing the show is a cute clownfish hat.
Thank you so much!!

Thank you to my wonderful Secret Santa, Jake (not sure what your R2R name is)! The gifts couldn't have come at a better time. My father in law unexpectedly passed away last week and today is my birthday. It put a much needed smile on my face (and my husband's). Thank you for the very thoughtful card as well.

Happy holidays to all!!

Thanks to my awesome secret Santa, JD! Everything was so thoughtful and awesome! He read through my last posts and picked out some items I’ve mentioned- total surprise. He even got some treats for the birds . Thank you so much! Already have the webcam installed on the tank.

The entire haul. Can’t wait to get an encrusting coral for that rock. Wyze webcam, 20mL syringe, acrylic rod, Polyplap coral view lens, and treats for the birds.

First full tank shot with the new Polyp lab coral view lens.

Alex and Scully checking out their treats.

Jasmine has no problem jumping in.

Pia an Harley also checking it out.

BirdyBird ready to eat. The rest of the crew were camera shy.
