I missed last years conference, I'm hoping to meet up with you guys this year though. The tank took a nosedive about 6 months ago. I've been working on bringing it back ever since. Lost a lot of coral that I started with. So I'll be looking to addd livestock and possibly pick up a heater and a pump if they are available for sale.
