Javier who has created this site has it rigged so you can't even vote on our pictures (Ryan - The Shepherds Reef Killer who built our tank has a tank posted which is NOT even his - we are done playing your third grade games) We are going to solicite the advertisers and make our own web site and do what we want on it so don't worry we'll be back ad # 1 again just like we were meant to be!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

| About Yourself: |
A very costly hobby, but one we can always do together |
| Advice: |
My husband had a reef tank years ago. We just started up a new one again a several months ago and absolutely love it. It is a great hobby you can do together. Flow ! Flow ! Flow and lots of live cured Rock!!! Salinity and temperature, because one wrong element can ruin your tank. We feed alot so all of our starfish live for several months, also not everyone can keep a flame angel, coral beauty, purple and yellow tang together in the same tank so luck was on our side (IF YOU DO NOT LIKE OUR PICTURES THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LOOK AT THEM, BUT VOTING 0 IS VERY NEGATIVE ON YOUR PART) PLEASE JUST MOVE ON - THANKS!!!! |
