I got an email from Marc in Switzerland. He said the keyboard an mouse are hard as heck to use as everything is backwards and they charge for internet by the second LOL. He says the funeral was really sad but that he is ok and Steve don't fret about the CBB, he couldn't believe it died cause it was fine before. Anwyays, say a prayer for Marc guys, as I know what he is going through unfortunately.

My thoughts and prayers go out to him.
How could he believe the CBB was doing fine? It looked like Nicole Richie on crack last time I saw it alive!

Our prayers are with you Marc.

LOL I'd rather tank sit professionally and podcast than be an Account Executive. You think I could make enough to switch professions?

you guys are teasing a guy who cannot defend himself!! That's just not right.
 He will be totally bummed when he gets back from Germany and finds his reef all over the floor! j/k Marc...humor is a good thing right? To be honest the CBB issue made me research them more and I think I am going to pass on getting one for my aptaisia problem.

He's in Switzerland, well actually now he's on a plane home, but he was in Switzerland, not Germany. And hedoes have a great sense of humor, he'll laugh about the Nicole Ritchie comment and have some snappy little retort, lol!

Marc and Evan will go very far with this reefcast gig they are doing. They have plenty of interest from vendors and made alot of contacts at MACNA. I am very proud of them both. It has come along way. Good Job guys.

Finally caught up on my thread. You guys are a riot. To recap, four days away for MACNA and then 5 more in Switzerland, I was really pleased to see my tank held up under the care of others. Steve, Frank and Evan - you guys are awesome.
I've got no idea how the CBB died. I guess it ate every aiptasia it could find, and then went on a hunger strike. Or decided it would not do yet another episode of The Simple Life. Over the past 36 hours I've been looking at the livestock and all the corals seem to be doing quite well. The fish, the anemones, shrimp and starfish all appear to be their normal selves, and coralline is growing quite a bit on the back wall and overflows. I took a ton of pictures both at MACNA and in Basel, and will insert them into my thread as time permits. |

How about a couple of reef tank pictures? I took these tonight as the lights were cycling off.
The Tyree frag was treated again today for AEFW, and quickly polyped out again once in the reef tank. I used Fluke Tabs this time when treating. It doesn't change the coral's color, and the serpent starfish seemed unaffected.  The pink A. millepora is doing well, surrounded by Scripps acropora.   Still red bug free!

Thanks. Pack that bottle extra extra well. One shipment had breakage and UPS was upset with the sender. I don't want you to get into any trouble, after all.
