Congratulations, Bob! Well-deserved honor to a heck of a nice guy.
BOB!!! You know you want to share some of your beauties with your TRT friends. You can trust us 
Here's your crown for the month. Since it's been on so many different heads in this group, I needed to do some repair on it. I used my trusty Duck Tape.

Your making mother nature jealous! I don't know if that is a good thing.  Definitely an awesome box-o-water.

Thanks again guys!
Steve,
For a tank this size I think I would. A glass tank would have been twice the price, 4 times the weight and I really couldn't find aanyone locally that would build one. I know of that place in Canada but can you imagine the shipping?
The biggest problem with my tank is the scratching. I'm some what of a perfectionist and can't stand the scratches. Seems that no matter how carefull I am they always happen. I do have a plan that will hopefully fix this. As the tank nears it's 4th birthday, the DSB will need to be changed. Instead of replacing it I'm going to BB. I'm going to try the Spanky Tanky method and with the DSB gone I should not get any grains of sand under the cleaning magnet. The side benefit of a Spanky Tanky id reduced phosphate build up LOL.

Congrats, Bob! Well deserved for your reefkeeping skills and the crown couldn't have gone to a nicer guy.
The tank looks great; you've got some beautiful specimens in there.

Thanks you guys! Jeff I's not sure if I am going to IMAC but if I do I'll be sure to let you know so we can maybe swap some stuff. Alice and Tom, thanks for the kind words Coming from two pillars of the TRT community, it means a lot. I'd love to swap frags if you are ever in the neighborhood. Bob |
