• Hands-on Workshops and excellent speakers (they include Kevin Kohen (the mastermind behind Drs. Foster & Smith's, Mark Eisenhandler & Matt Pedersen.
• Fragswap !!!! Wahoo

It sounds excellent and I would love to go but I am not sure if I can commit. Here is why: (ps look closely)
I hope, despite the long haul, that I will be able to go and I encourage you to attend.

I will be in Orange County next week so yet again I will have someone take care of the tank. My "new equipment" has been delayed so you will not hear about it untill later. This is a relativly short post, so I will try to get something out to you before I depart. I may even post some pictures :)

Sunday -- Update

The tank has been going very well! My BTA has really colored up and is a bright orange during the day. I continue to battle with Aptasia and am going to (hopefully) add 3-8 peppermint shrimp to take them out. I will do my water tests sometime today and post the results tommorow. I will probably be going to the Mid-Michigan Reefers Frag Swap on the 29th of Jan. Here is a link to there site and to a thread on there message boards about it.
