Very cool! I need all the help I can get

[Jimm]

Going to travis's website....VERY nice site. I love photography, and I love aquariums...I've never spent much time combining them, though. I want to do a Photo journal with this new tankk I have...take a picture of each coral and fish as it is added, and kind of do a progress blog/journal with it. Tomorrow after my exam I'll be listening to the podcast as part of my "reward" for taking the test. Thanks for another podcast! and thanks for the bonus video too!

Woo Hoo....so glad I decided to fire up the laptop tonight. Now I'll have something to listen to as I head out of town tomorrow!

Glad to hear some folks found the info helpful. :) There are lots of ways to get in touch with me if you have any questions, I think I dropped my email address in the podcast, and Rob has started some aquarium photography forums here as well. I'll be checking in to answer any questions occasionally over the next week or so.

Awesome topic for a podcast, can't wait to have a listen :p

[blide]

Nice show guys....

One Question was Travis's website reeflife.com? If so I get a different site when I use that url.

[travis]

Unfortunately, I had to hyphenate. ;)

The correct url is http://www.reef-life.com

[Rob]

yes, its reef-life.com, and that is in the show notes for that episode if you need it again in the future..

GRRRREEEEEAAAAATTTTT!!! http://www.websmileys.com/sm/happy/1074.gif

Can't wait to listen to it! This is perfect for me, since I just got my new Canon EOS 1D!!! Yippyyyyyy!!!

[UMpg]

Thanks for the greeting gwen_o_lyn! :) I've been listening and reading for a few months, just not saying anything on the forums...

[Reefbaby]

UMpg - I second the welcome! The nice thing about this forum is....you can just jump right in feet first! Everyone here is quite lovely! :-)

[Driftwood]

Hey Rob! Love the show. I just found out about it and have gone back and listened to all of the episodes. Great stuff man!

I had a question about this episode. You mentioned in the Q&A section that you had a link to the skimmer mod where you cut up a bioball and attach it to the impeller of the skimmers powerhead to improve performance. I didn't see that in the show notes and if you don't have it, it's not a big deal. I was just curious how that worked and was wondering if it was my skimmer!

Thanks alot for the show, keep them comming! I look forward to getting into the forums and being a part of the community.

Thanks again!

[Rob]

Driftwood,
first of welcome to talkingreef, i do hope you enjoy the site as well as the podcast shows, thanks for stopping by.

I will look when i get home for that link, it basically involved cutting off enough of the posts so it would fit over the the impeller.

ill see what i can come up with

[CarmieJo]

Hi Driftwood,

:welcome: to TR.

[Driftwood]

I came across a link to the bio-ball mod. I'll post it here for anyone else who might go looking for it.

[Rob]

[CarmieJo]

Hi Everyone! Dust off the Nikon. (Or Canon or Pentax or...) If you have been wanting to enter your tank in the TOTM contest but your photos don't do it justice you need to listen to this show (again)!

Once you have your best shots visit this link http://www.talkingreef.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2056 to read over the rules. Please follow the rules, we don't want to disqualify your tank!

Next visit http://www.talkingreef.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=59 and submit your entry. Once there click on "New Topic" and submit your entry. (You won't be able to see the other entries.)
