I hope you're enjoying your new home and I wish you the best.
Thanks Ryan, sorry to hear about your troubles. I know how painful it is.

Sorry Dan to see your pictures, but those pictures look like they were taken at my house.

Good luck with the restocking. Luckily there are so many nice corals out now so some new corals may be refreshing.

Hey Mark, I know that you know the pain. It was hard and had I lost all my SPS I think I would have gone fish only but I felt bad for those few SPS survivors and set up the pendant. It's refreshing to begin collecting again but I do miss seeing healthy colonies in the tank. I'm looking for a particular piece that was my favorite but so far no joy.

I don't follow soccer that much (actually at all) but that story about the guy that had a heart attack during the game was pretty scary.

Good to see you starting up again. The losses are very painful but the corals always seem to grow faster the second time around and even faster the third or fourth time. What was the special piece you were looking for?

Hey Aaron, how have you been? I hope that they grow faster as it's not much fun to see a bunch of nubs in the tank. Sounds like you have some experience in regrowing! I wish you were closer as I know you've got the good stuff, what show are you going to next? CFM maybe? The piece I'm looking for is the Ultimate's Purple Monster. It was one of my favorite pieces, the purple and white was a great color combo and it had an interesting growth structure. I haven't seen anything quite like it. I know that I distributed a few frags but I have no idea to who.

Oh boy, that's a tough one. Jared Butler is a good place to start, he seems to have a lot of Rommel's pieces (even if it's not on his site). If Jared doesn't have it I think he will know where to get it...

I'll be at the CFM in Fullerton in May(?), hope to see you there!
