Thanks Jim for the nice comments about the site, Welcome to our little corner of the web. We are still up and coming even though we started in 07 things just seem a bit slow here but I find it nice you get a better chance to talk without all the riff raff of to many members. As for fish heads we have a few here who love to do nothing but talk all day  about fish. Wow 30 years is a long time to be in a hobby shows a lot of patience, dedication, and love for the fish you keep. Your knowledge and experience is definitely welcome here on this board. I hope to see more of you in the future and look forward to what you have to share with us till then welcome and make yourself at home glad you signed up. Mike |

Terms of Service  we are so layed back here the only thing we can't stand is spammers. I run this website myself with my wife but she is more with our teenagers now and doesn't have the time so now I'm the only HTML monkey here I have a few decent forum Mods but thats about it. You could say we're looking as well. Maybe we can help each other out a bit. Mike |

I know who you are now your the New Admin of Aquarium Life which is also a very nice website. Nothing slips by me just took me a minute old Military habits are hard to break out of. You know I wanted to affiliate with that website and never got a response from anyone. I had even made a banner LOL ready to post when we first launched CP I still believe I have it on our server. I believe they had a bit of an EGO trip at the time and where a bit rude as well. I doubt you'll find anyone here who would want to work for them given that they are a bigger community here we are more like a family, staff especially but I am willing to work together to help promote both websites.
