Congratulations Darryl!!

The immense time and effort you have poured into your Coral Reef display is clearly evident. The fact so many of your masterpieces were carefully chosen from the best of the best aqua cultured frags out there, nurturing and growing them into the amazing colonies we see before us, is a statement of pure dedication. The thrill and passion you have for this hobby is clearly shown here.

Thanks for leading many of us with our own creations.

Darryl, WOW!! What an impressive slice of the reef you have. I have enjoyed your contributions over the years to Reef Central and my own reef keeping has been assisted by you at many times. This is a well deserved honor for you. Your dedication and husbandry really shows up in all that beauty. Thanks for sharing and congratulations

Beautiful tank. I love the colors of the sps's. I had a question about the tusk. Has it ever given you any problems. It is one of my favorite fish, but have always hear d they were not reef safe.
