Back in October of 2010 I decided to start a new reef forum for local and non-local hobbiests with the goals of keeping the site friendly for everyone, easy to use and free for everyone.  Since that time the site has continued to grow and prosper!  We have gone from just a couple of members to now 221 members.  Speaking of members one thing I didn't want is to have a bunch of spammers get on to the forums.  With the help of my team of moderators we have kept the forums spam free and blocked over 700 spammer accounts!  In addition to membership the site has grown in content too.  There have been over 140 articles and blogs written and added to the site since the begining.  In the forum there has been over 1300 topics and over 9200 messages posted!  In the gallery members have uploaded over 330 images.  We have 84 different links in our link section.  And, after a slow start siince it was something different from what was done in the past, the classified section is really taking off.  If you looked there now you will find a ton of good deals!  All in all I think the site is one its way to another year of fun!  Most of all though I would like to take a minute to thank all of you for making this site what it is today!

Here's to another year, cheers!
