He actually has a trio of Jocs. Yup he is crazy :)

Thanks for starting a TOTT thread Mike. Your tank and setup is awesome.

Folks, Mike is a great guy and has a beautiful tank and his equipment is just amazing.

I have had the pleasure to see it in person.

Mike, you should post some more pics of your livestock and your equipment.

I am glad you are active on our forums.
