Yes, pics please! I'm SO bummed I couldn't make it. Been sidelined with assisting family in Florida dealing with a freeloader named Matthew. Maybe, we could do this again?... when hurricane season is over? Hope you guys enjoy the three...er...two-hour tour!

Big thanks to Mark for setting the tour up. Both Nikki and I came away very impressed with the whole operation over there at Jenks. They really are doing a lot with not a ton of space and no outside funding. To be working with and breeding several endangered species is pretty impressive including a cichlid species that is extinct in the wild is pretty cool. The reef tanks looked nice and the rest of the place was really nice too. For us reefers, I think the highlight was the upstairs "lookdown" reef tank. It was a gorgeous tank with a lot of fat and happy fish in it. Really nice corals and just very well taken care of.

I think we could probably do this several times a year, just probably not in the summer when the place is crowded. They are looking to do a bunch of upgrades this winter so I will be curious what we will see going forward. Thank you to the folks who joined us afterwards, was a nice little get together as always.
