Woo! http://reefbuilders.com/2013/03/27/jacob-dixons-puget-biotope/ You should make sure Joost mentions in the article that the livestock was collected before the change in laws took effect in 2010 making the take of unclassified fish and inverts illegal in Washington state.

Very good point! I sent ReefBuilders a message, I wouldn't want to get into any trouble. I also wouldn't want any potential readers to start collecting and get into trouble either. I am very happy to see Reef Builders talking again about Cold Water reefs! I met today with Novatech and we are planning on bringing you reefers a thermoelectric chiller to support up to a 16 gallon cold water reef... I am happy they are as well! Nice.

I recently found out that an internship I applied for was accepted...I will be doing marine conservation, environmental photography, and chameleon and jackal surveying this summer on the Greek island of Samos! Best. Day. Ever. Link to comment
andi.rahl Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 hey there, I read until page 46-ish then I decided to skip to the end. Awesome tank, it was fun to read through and see how your tank changed. Sucks about the beginning but was still awesome. Congrats on the mention and awesome, I'm so glad for you with your internship! even more congrats are in order! just wow! <3 Link to comment
Jacobnano Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Thank you very much ! I can't believe you read through all of those pages! Thanks!! Link to comment
BadCrab Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I finally got the time to read this thread from post 1. What an amazing transformation this tank has had, and you've really grown as an aquarist and photographer along with it Jacob. This tank is truly an inspiration. Good luck with your internship Link to comment
andi.rahl Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Thank you very much ! I can't believe you read through all of those pages! Thanks!! haha! I can't believe I did either. I enjoyed the info you presented by way of your experiences with your tank. If I hadn't read this, I probably never would have thought about a tank like yours. Maybe one day down the road (like years from now) I'll try a tank like this. Link to comment

BeardedReeferLLC Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Tank is coming along great. +1 Link to comment
I4O9 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Beautiful tank! The sandbed is especially nice, it complements the earthy tones of the fish well and gives a nice contrast to the colors on the inverts and anemones. I'm kinda tempted to try my hand at this someday. Keep at it, you're one lucky reefer. Link to comment
