Hey John,
Keeping
LR for 6 to 8 weeks isn't a problem if you are aware of how to take care of it. It needs to be unlit, lots of circulation, heavy protein skimming and water changes. Otherwise you will have an algae out break that would clog the ICWW.
I'm in the country around Ft. Pierce, off Indrio Rd. We're having a reefers meeting at my house April 20th - 2pm. If you are interested
PM me. some really nice people coming. Hope you can make it.
Dick
