  1. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    MOFIB has good Mojitos? Maybe I should stay as a moderator... :) Jeff
  2. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    I hope not. I'm overdue for a Maroon Lightning fix and Bangaii Rescue reports. :) Jeff
  3. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    There are a number of web sites that claim Elvis is still alive and the Apollo 11 moon landing never happened too. If I were on the board, I'd at least fix the spelling of my name. Matt, you're better than the whining and sour grapes. Concentrate on the future and stop complaining about what...
  4. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Andy was? Or Andy? Yeah, it's all a blur. But I think you might be mistaking Andy Rhyne and Andy Berry. Andy Rhyne was on the BOD with us, Andy Berry was prior to that, same board as Carl (I think... ?). I never dealt with Andy Berry at MOFIB, other than in the forums. That I remember...
  5. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    It was prepared for. And dealt with, to the best of my. and Suzy's, ability. How do you suggest it should have been handled? The bottom line is that the organization, and the forums, became a political battlefield several years ago. Multiple people tried, unsuccessfully, to fix it. Each...
  6. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Actually, they didn't. They were spent. $700+ on an aborted move to Texas, mostly attorney's fees since nobody actually paid the filing fees, and hundreds more on an enterprise class web server infrastructure for a site with 70 users (about 30 paid members) and a low enough traffic demand that...
  7. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    I'll take responsibility. I backed the ONLY ponies. Within four months after I was elected, the board was non-existent, with the exception of Suzy. The option of going to just a forum had been presented and was in the works, but nobody wanted to let anyone else have control. Now the...
  8. Anyone know who installed this aquarium?

    Living Color just did the inserts. The tank builder is working with the casino on why it happened and possible damage controls. Jeff
  9. The new Upflow Algae Scrubber (UAS)

    Actually, is that a problem? Snails/Herbivores grazing on the algae is an export in many ways. Assuming they don't keep it totally clean of course. What someone really needs to invent is an algae scrubber that can have multiple layers of screening. More surface area in a smaller square...
  10. The new Upflow Algae Scrubber (UAS)

    This is confusing. It may actually be easier to build but it looks harder to harvest the algae to export nutrients. And size seems like it would be an issue, as well as algae deposits on non-harvestable surfaces. I guess I need pictures of it in use to understand why it would be better, or...
  11. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    I either missed them or they weren't there. I went back a few years in the posts to see what had been historically happening and came to the conclusion that the history was fighting between directors. I didn't learn from history very well. What MOFIB really needs is a totally new set of...
  12. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    I did, but I'm not sure Luis had ever started anything. I can easily be wrong on this, but I didn't get the same indication you did apparently. I didn't. I may have had similar goals, but definitely different opinions of how to accomplish them. I don't do politics well. I also don't seem to...
  13. ESA Petition Dwarf Seahorse --- NOAA 90-Day Finding

    From what I've seen, they're not threatened that much. The BP oil spill hit the grass flats in the Mississippi/Alabama area hard, but nothing in Florida south of the panhandle and nothing in Texas/Mexico. Locally (Southwest Florida), H. zosterae is pretty common, even though we've been hit...
  14. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Slightly off-topic, but why don't any of you post at the MOFIB forums anymore? At least that I can identify, there's not much involvement from past MOFIB members, board members or even critics. As far as I recall, Matt's the only one who was permanently banned. I also rarely post, but I...
