+bigsby Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 Thanks Ty, I am happy to be able to pay it forward. I have been given so much from this club in so many ways. I can remember looking back when I was first starting into the hobby and how excited I was to even see an asterina on a piece of live rock or to get a random mushroom or polyp attached to a piece of live rock or a brittle star in my tank for the first time. I remember many times not wanting to buy even a cheap $5-$10 piece of coral because I needed to buy something else for my tank to get any where near what some of the other reefers had and there was always something else. Whether it be salt, rock, a light, bulbs, or even fish. It seemed like I would never be to the point of getting coral and then actually growing it and fragging it? That seemed like something so out of my league that I even got discouraged and decided against corals all together at one point. My first tank I killed every fish in it in under 3 months. I added all kinds of random crap from a bottle and thought I was doing everything right. After that first incident I never added anything else and let my tank eventually evaporate and wound up shutting it down. It wasn't until a few years later that I had a friend of mine offer his 65 gallon full reef setup with a sump and a couple of corals that my interest was reborn. From there my passion only grew. And continues to every day. If he had not of introduced me to this club I might have picked up a few corals here and there, but I can guarantee that I would nit be able to do something like this without the help and inspiration of this club and the members in it. I remember admiring the obvious bonds that are are created every day and it's rare that you can get into a club/hobby and never have to see or meet someone but truly feel like you know them and be met with such a pure willingness to help in any way they can. That's what this club is all about. And I feel very lucky and very proud to be a part of this club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameronbherring Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Ok. First off, thanks for voting me to win! It really means a lot. I've been a member for a month here at ARC, but I've had a saltwater tank since I was 12. I couldn't thank Bigsby enough. He has gave me a ton of advice a long with several others from ARC. I'm not lying when I say this, but I wouldn't be as far and as educated if not for this site. I wouldn't be in this hobby if I never saw all the tanks online, in the fish store, and all of your tanks. I hope one day I can pay it forward also. As many have helped me, I hope to help others one day. If I didn't have everyone else's tank to look up to, I wouldn't have the motivation I have now. I'm almost positive I'm the youngest member. So it means a lot for all the help and support I've gotten from everyone. Thanks for voting for me everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+bigsby Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 Thanks Dustin. I am truly grateful to have met so many of the people from this site and hope to continue to build relationships with quite a few of you guys. I love the interactions between everyone and and the fact this club isn't just about reef tanks. I have grown to realize it is much more than that.

Bpb Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Dam* decent of you Bigs. Shame none of you people live closer by me. 90% of the coral that leaves my tank is free. Primarily acropora and montipora. Club folks would start petitioning against me for screwing up market pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
