Well, color ME flattered!!! I'm Michael by the way and that's my tank you guys are heaping so many kind words upon. Thank you very much, sincerely. Your compliments are much appreciated.
I am currently out of town on business so forgive me if I'm getting to your questions late. First of all, yeah, I'm the Married...With Children, guy. When they did that interview for the E Channel, I tried using the reef as a diversion but, unfortunately, they kept focusing on me anyway. Sorry. Now, I'm simply a plain old outdoor photographer with a wife, kid, and 500g reef to feed.
Slothy: You may not go broke on the feeding schedule but you definately would have no social life. With all those Anthias, by the time I finish feeding one end of the tank, the guys on the other end are hungry again.
FireEater: Yeah, I had a bit of cyano in the refugium too. Not nearly as much as I had in the main tank though. Now that I've stepped up cirulation in the refugium, it's totally gone there. Still have a little bit in the main tank but I'm definitely on the winning side, I think.
sammystingray: Sorry about that window thing. We (the web designer and myself) went back and forth about that issue and he decided it was better for them to stay open. I shall punish him forthwith. I shall make him feed my Anthias.
mercedes: Got a dog. Passes gas like an Edsel. No thanks.
Danrw84: Unless somethings totally out of whack, I'd say I spend no more than an hour a day now. I do have a service guy come out sometimes though, especially during times like this when I'm on the road. He probably spends 6-8 hours a week.
entice59: We're discussing doing a little 'movie' for the website update...as if the dialup guys aren't mad enough at me already.
jamesurg: Actually, the first few years were UGLY: Mantis shrimp, Valonia outbreaks, and I wasn't home nearly as much as I thought I'd be so I didn't shoot much. Don't worry. You didn't miss anything. Just a ton of live rock sitting in ariated trashcans with a crying man lying in a fetal position between them.
Everyone Else: Thank You, Thank You, and again, Thank you.
Look for a site update in about a month (or two). Later.

Ive got to say!
That is one heck of a tank man, very very nicely done. That purple acro id brighter then all my coralline... im doin something wrong. But what i really liked, and I would love to know what happens. When you let the two acrose encrust and form the white little battle field, where the mucus comes out. I wonder what would happen if you leave it out.
Otherwise, welcome aboard there are a whole bunch of us in NJ, CT and NY on here and I would love too see you at reef meeting. Yes we travel cause were geeks!
Take care!

I've had your website on my Favorites list on my Toolbar for a couple of weeks. Not just the list, the Toolbar, and there're only three positions on there. Simply amazing site.

Wow.
Wow.
Where are the brittlestars? Just kidding. But they would be lovely. They really are. I have no bias, BTW. No one could even suggest such a thing
Lebowski, while I agree with you that many people have great looking tanks, I disagree that there is 'nothing special' with the tank in question! I wouldn't mind having any of them, this one included.
I respect, admire and praise hard work and great reefkeeping when it is so clearly evident in healthy growing animals. Fantastic!

"MWC" ran for nearly 11 seasons and amassed a total of 262 episodes. That puts it in the Top Ten Longest Running Sitcoms of All Time.
The reason we stopped was because we were tired.
