Hello Paul. First I want to say nice home and Aquarium. Where did you purchase the container for your 2 part liquids?

I'm beginning the think the Slow S in SSS might be so slow you lose your RC credentials... if you still have your tank, how about an update?

Paul spends most of his days in New York now instead of Austin. I think he mentioned it in his last post. The tank is basically in stasis for now until he resumes his time in Austin again in the next couple of years.

I was over there with a buddy last time he was in town and corals seemed happier and his magnifica anemone is gigantic. His fish looked super healthy and everything is still running like a dream.

I'm sure he'll post again once he resumes his normal life again.

Speaking of giant magnifica anemone, probably the biggest in Austin!

October 2019 Update

Hi All,

After 28 months away, I am back in Austin full time. The tank did well in stasis mode under my husband's care, with relatively few chemistry wobbles and almost all livestock remaining healthy.

I won't be resuming full-tilt on the tank any time soon as I've decided to do yet another startup, but thought I'd provide a video and pictorial update.

Tank looked great Paul! I’m impressed with how well it has come along in the last couple years. The growth and color you are getting on the acros has been amazing!

I’m looking forward to that day when it’s overly full of beautiful colonies to match your beautiful fish population! Thanks for having John and I over again. It was good to catch up and always nice to take a quick dip.

-Ty
