400 gallons of saltwater running through my house.

It is a sad day my friend, but it can also be a good day because you get to start fresh, when you do start. Things will be done right, and I love your idea about the new tank. Good luck in gettin rid of your stuff, you know I will be down when you get back to collect some stuff.

Wow, that is too bad and very exciting. You just have to survive the time in between breakdown and start up. Cant wait to see the new set up and follow along with the build.
Wish I was closer. I would love to have the squamosa's and a few pieces of coral.
How far away do you have to move?

 

[DevonM]

How far away do you have to move?

We will stay in Missoula, just not sure when we will find the right place.

Wow Devon! - sorry to hear about your move and the upcoming RPITA (Royal Pain In The Aquarium....). Hope it works out & you're back to it soon!

 

[DevonM]

Well it's back to reality. Shelby and I had a nice visit to NYC but we are happy to be home! Now the fun starts...

 

[CarlaW]

Devon, welcome back you two, it looked as tho you ate and museumed your way thru NYC, will that town ever be the same? I have got to go to Spokane for their meeting this weekend, could you let me know what a good day would be where I could come down and possible meet up with jen at your place. I know she wants some of my fiji leather and I would like to try to pick up some birdsnest from you. Glad to have you back in Montana .

 

[CarlaW]

I visited Devon yesterday morning to pick up a couple frags, and found out that what he said was true........................ the Radiant wrasse moves way to fast to get a good pic of, and for that matter, the damn mantis shrimp did too . But I did get a couple that worked for me . Good luck on getting rid of the rest of your livestock my friend, I tried my best to help.............................lol.

 

[DevonM]

Thanks for posting the photos Charlie! It was good seeing you.

 

[CarlaW]

I didn't even think of it at the time, but we should have at least had lunch. I got all those mounted on some rubble and they are placed in the tank, hopefully where they are gonna be happy anyways. Thank you so much my friend, I hope to be able to pay ya back when you get rolling again, whenever that may be.

 

[DevonM]

Thanks Charlie, I will definitely take you up on it.

 

[CarlaW]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh you do have a way with words...............................lol.

 

[DevonM]

Lol, not sure how that happened!

 

[CarlaW]

Damn auto correct on these new fangled phones........................lol. I just figure you may owe me a beer sometime down the road.

Yes, I know you did.

 

[CarlaW]

Ok, that must be the one that is havin a bit of trouble, I'll go down and take a look and see what is goin on with it then.

 

[DevonM]
