Oops, you were right. I must have mis-read the date. Fixed.

Hey everyone. We are looking at bringing back the ChicagoReefs Holiday Party. To make this the best party we can, we'd like to know when works best for most of you. The final date, time, and location are still in progress, but once I have an idea I'll be sure to let everyone know. So please...

The old one got outdated, so I wanted to rebuild the thread. If I am missing anything, or if anything is wrong, please let me know and I will update it. Hours may change seasonally. Sorry for all the Facebook links, I used recent activity on their Facebooks to determine if a fish store was...

I honestly stopped going here about a year ago. I would stop in and they'd have nothing in stock. They remodeled like every 2 months, and things they set up would get removed, there was no consistency. I heard that the owner is a contractor, and when the economy dipped he started doing Reefwise...

I have finally migrated everything over from my old tanks to the new one. Time for things to grow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's not the RO that is taking forever, it's my busy life. I just moved into an apartment with my fiance so unpacking and dealing with that is taking forever. There's not a lot of rock in here now, because I have like 50 lbs in my other tank that will get transferred over once this one is...

The tank is almost filled. Should have it filled tonight, and the equipment running. Filling it 5 gallons at a time has been dreadful.

1. R2R has a large userbase and has more activity. Since it isn't localized it has the benefit of more constant activity. 2. Don't really have an answer for that. I've been working with Tom to try and increase activity for quite sometime. 3. 4. Yes 5. Yes 6. If I had some sure. 7. Yes, plenty...

I've been a member on R2R since before I found CR, so it has always been a place for me to do research. I never posted as much, although I am starting to become more active on there. Reefcentral I only use occasionally.

I'm in. And if I don't win, I'll probably want to buy one anyone.

Here's a few more pictures. Tank is finally ready to get wet. Will hopefully start filling tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn't buy much, but mainly because I'm upgrading to my new tank soon. I did get a nice Diamond-Tail Flasher Wrasse and a Hybrid Powder-Brown Tang though.

Sorry for the delay, been busy with work and the move. Finally got the stand together last night. This thing is SOLID. The stand was very well wrapped in the box. Even with there being a hole in one corner of the box, none of the panels got damaged. Anyone that is familiar with Ikea furniture...

You could also try out Advanced Acrylics. Not sure what kind of prices you are looking at but they make nice stuff.

Yes there are always crowds, but the hall they used for the coral shops is too narrow. 15 minutes to go from one table to the next isn't even that bad. 5-10 minutes to move a foot is bad, which is exactly how it was on the saturday around 1:30-2.

It's good to see that the hobby is so popular. But it's not a good experience for anyone that wants to go. When it's impossible to walk down the aisle and look at corals, then what's the point of even going? Also, people that bring strollers to these types of events need to be smacked. The...

On saturday it was ridiculously crowded. Many people had to park like half a mile away and walk because there was no available parking at the venue. They also put most of the livestock vendors in the same area, so there were times you could not walk through at all. I got there at like 11:45, and...

I'm going to be moving into an apartment with my girlfriend soon, and I decided it was time to upgrade along with the move. I didn't want to deal with custom plumbing, or anything like that, so I looked at the pre-configured options. Red Sea was an obvious one, but then I heard about Waterbox...

Based on my understanding, Tapatalk was selling location data, so as long as you have location services disabled for the app, there's no risk.
