I've been very fortunate to have made some special friends simply from being in this hobby. Tapio Haaparanta has been instrumental in pointing me in the right direction & showing me the importance of good lighting, good circulation, and strong skimming.  His is the most fantastic tank I have ever seen - period. Trojanowski, Carvi, Laura, Dom, Kevin, Adrian & Keith are my buddies from Fishnet & a more knowledgeable group you'll never meet.  There are so many others like the Octopuss' Garden group, the guys at Aquatic Warehouse, the guys along the Scripps Aquarium Pier, Maurice who buys all the good frags first, all my SDMAS connections, all my online buddies through Seahorse.org, AquaLink, Reef Central, Reefs.org, Reefland and others, & most importantly, my beautiful wife, Annette, who hasn't divorced me after seeing what the tanks REALLY cost us! BTW - I know the below are not all soft corals & lps - I ran out of room!
