It doesn't take a genius to be successful at this hobby just a person who is mentally tough. A person who can evolve with their aquarium. After all I think most of us view our aquarium as extensions of our personalities. The big things others see, and the little things that shaped us. Way to go Justin.... I look forward to seeing your giant OLD corals in the future.
Very introspective and inspiring, Troy!
