    I keep water, last checked about 600 gallons worth.
    Problem is animals keep using it as there water closet.
    Worst of all the littlest ones keep using up all the supplies.

    We stuffed Goody Bags tonight.
    Keep in mind that if you are NOT pre-registered, you may NOT get all the goodies.
    We have some special items in the pre-registered bags and there are only 150 of those.
    And we are getting closer to that number every day.

    See you all Saturday !!!!!!

    Registered see you all there.....
    Four individual systems Right now.
    30gal red sea 130d lps/softies/anemone tank, kalk ato, reef bright led strip.
    40 softies set up.
    550 total gallon marineland 300 DD main system 18 months old now and stabilized. T5 VHO lights/ BLUE led strip, Fully custom built LIFE REEF sump and FUGE, AWESOME 60" tall skimmer, and 1000+ gallon rated custom Ca reactor, 3 50 gallon attached SPS frag systems lite with a combination of HM and LED and T5 fixtures.
    A 200 gallon MARS quarintine with UV system/ medication for new arrivals.

    Still lots to learn about the hobby but I have amassed a great collection of real beauties. I have broken past the stage of keeping things alive and now there actually growing out. Which is a big hurdle for many beginners I must admit. Good information and advise is hard to get sometimes and the club has done wonders with respect to quality advise and help in the hobby.

    THANKS Orlando Reef Educators Organization!!!!

    Just back to Florida.

    Thanks Steve for the info, just hook up with Living Tanks for the water and tank. One last hurdle between me and the conference-transit. Organizing it now.

    BTW, almost cannot come back in time as my transits from NY broke them last night. Whoooh

    Conference was outstanding, so well prepare, so clean, everyone had their best products, just seen WWC Exotic reef imports, Josh porksandwich, cornbread corals, it was a show on its own, the main speech from Julian about algae, best way to address the topic I have seen ( I read most of his books as well) He also talk a lot about the issue of trying to do everything possible against the project of putting all the corals under endangered species, and how bad this will be for our hobby, as well as the programs for aquaculture and propagation of corals
    Others of our sponsors that have awesome knowledge and set up was Wingo, his LED's, pumps and Clown Fishes, outstanding same as his show prices.
    And other very interesting product was from Live tanks in Melbourne, the have fresh Cultures of copepods, brine, rotifers and almost all the live microscopic food you can get, they sale this as much as you want and is live food, for a fraction of the price you pay for a bottle of the same dead in the store. Awesome set up, hope everyone take the time to see it. All live, and for what they told me every week they change the products to a different live food.
