Sold my shark tank, lost interest. Been busy with work, riding, my reef tank, and everything in-between. I don't have internet access at my new place yet, so I only get on at the end of the workday usually, sorry. I'll try and get some reefpics up, it is primarily SPS in the growout stage, everything else is all done. I've got about 30frags in the last 2 months, all kinds of weird stuff, second generation Tyree stuff, etc. Got some really nice zoos from a local friend as well.
Dan's kinda had a loss of interest as well, we've both been really busy with work, riding, trackriding, etc. You'll hear from us a lot more this winter. Cincy if you're ever in the area, I'll have frags waiting for you. Good stuff too, not things you see very often. Wink wink.
take care

Thats what I figured. I hope you guys still drop by to every once in awhile... The board really needs it if you haven't noticed lately. 
I will definitely be getting ahold of you in a few months for advice on bikes. Once my car is finally done again , I plan on just selling the money pit to buy a bike. I'll definitely let you know when I think I am comfortable enough to come out riding with you guys.
And definitely keep me in mind for some frags... I am hoping to have my 220 sps tank up and going around Christmas time. And just let me know if you ever want to set up another larger tank again. I'll get you a real good price for an acrylic tank since we are finally making them now.

Yeah but compared to the $16,000 I have spent on the car the past two years I could have had 2 really nice bikes. It will take major control not to spend much more to mod a bike though. You get your 980 running yet?

At least I paced the 20k I spent on the Mustang out over 4 years instead of 2!
No, the 980 is still where it was last time, sitting halfway in a hole in the wall in the basement. Ive been REALLY lazy over the summer. Ill finish it in the next few months. Kind of burnt out from work and the whole project in general at this point. Plus Ive been having problems with the 125 filtration so I really dont feel like going one tank to another.

Cincy, we may be going to mid-ohio next tuesday if you're interested. Saltfisher you should make it out there too.

I won't be able to make it next Tuesday with classes starting back up tomorrow, but I know I should be up in the Cleveland area for a weekend sometime soon. How far are you from Cleveland? Maybe I'll be able to stop by and hit up a few bars or something.

I'm still here
Haven't lost interest really...just been busy as heck! Our second son was born this past June, work is crazy, and I spent the summer in a wheel chair!
The sharks in the big tank are doing great, as is the tank itself. The black tip has grown, but not as much as the bamboo! Unfortunately, my bonnet head died. I'm not 100% sure what happened. He was dead when I returned from a short vacation, but so was one of my dart frogs. Don't wanna point the finger at the person who was caring for them....but?
I have since tore down my 150, and changed the reef into a fowlr. Trying to minimize maintenance a bit, as I don't have as much free time these days! lol I am however setting up a 180 in my office at work.
I'll try to get some new pics taken and posted soon.

I think you'll like this pulsing sinularia once it grows out a bit. Pretty cool coral.

Yeah, haven't been able to make it online or to the boards lately. Past few months have just been swamped; working 68 hours a week, taking a couple college classes, wrenching at home in the garage..... I think I've been day-dreaming about sleep lately!
Haven't lost interest in the hobby-addiction, just have to many other priorities. Currently everythings pretty much in stasis, I'm just trying to maintain a couple large colonies for frag swaps, everything else I'm getting ready to sell. Hoping it will offset the cost of a new tank thats as automated as much as I can possibly make it. Should have it set up and ready to cycle by November. So nothing really picture worthy, actually, just for some eye candy. I'll post some pics I took the other day well visiting a reef buddies tank, they're pretty worthwhile!

Where are the pics Novice?
Daniel- I'm always up for some good frags... I can trade you equipment/tanks if you need it. How are the classes going for you?
