Arkayology Posted June 14, 2015 Author Share Posted June 14, 2015 Good luck with that, grants are always a pain. Where in Peru are you going to? I'll be in Moquegua, Ica, and Cuzco this summer. I have research projects in all three areas. I study ancient food production and use through carbonized plant remains that are recovered from archaeological sites. 6 Quote Link to comment
ReefWeeds Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Woah! I don't check in for 6 days and this! Congrats on what you will be doing though. But I'm sad about the tank coming down. This is one of my favorites. 1 Quote Link to comment

This is one of my favorites. Thanks man. I really liked this tank - it was my most successful so far. I may not be back for a couple of years, but I will be back - probably after my dissertation is done and I have a professorship somewhere. I may have a pico or something just to play around with while I write my diss though. Who knows? 1 Quote Link to comment

Arkayology Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 Oh man that sucks....you could still ask for gift cards. I know you will be back in the game eventually. How have things been man? Things are OK - waiting to hear back from grants that I submitted for my dissertation. I will get back into the game, but it might be awhile. I want to set up a larger tank in the 150g range, but we need to move and I need to get a job so it might be 5 years out. Though I could do a pico... 4 Quote Link to comment

It scratches too easily. Mike at Micro Reefs is back in action.... I saw that. Hmm. If I do a pico, it will probably be in a year or so. I need to be in Peru for a few months this summer collecting dissertation data. I am already planning the 150g (pending wife approval) in my head though. 1 Quote Link to comment

Arkayology Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 It's about that approval from the wife Yeah... the wife doesn't like that I go away for research for months at a time. Even though I had automated the tank almost completely, except for top off RODI, she still didn't like being alone with the tank. I may have to wait a few years until l get a stable job and am doing more lab research than field. A guy can hope though... I miss reefing. 1 Quote Link to comment
