    Well has been awhile since I have posted anything well this is what has happened since. A inland hurricane has hit southern il and fought that battle then company did very well fixing storm damage. so well I over work my back and threw my back out. My toes went numb and couldn't move for 2 months. Watching helpless from my chair my tanks went to crap. They needed cleaning and water changes but didn't want wife to do to much she was waiting on me in other ways and didn't want to stress her more. Well needless to say I fell in sort of a tank depression. The calupra took over and hair algae is so bad in other tank that i am slowly trying to water change out to get under control. Coral and fish have been doing good also. small die off of snails and crabs and start of some coral diminishing but now slowly making it back on the rebound. Had some protien skimmer troubles but have fixed them now. Didn't feal like posting cause of the pain I was in but getting back to normal now. For all of you I haven't met look forward to your posts and for all that I have known hope you remember me and look forward to talking again with you.

    Wow, if ever there's a good reason to take a break from 3reef, that's it! I'm sorry to hear of your ailments and tank conditions, but I'm stoked you're getting back into the swing of things.

    Welcome back and remember; bend at the knees!
