We usually take reefkeeping seriously around here, but I thought we could do something a bit more whimsical. This is a short list of how to spot fellow reef aquarium and saltwater aquarium keepers in the wild, away from the aquariums.
You know you’ve found a fellow aquarium nerd when…
You can see the blue glow coming [...]

ATB Skimmers No Longer on ReefCentral

ReefAddicts.com – A New Aquarium Hobbyist Website
There is a new saltwater aquarium website on the way…and it won’t be your typical aquarium site. Over the past several weeks, many of you have noticed random ReefAddicts.com advertisements.
