    I would like to invite everyone to check out the very first article for VargasReef Magazine, a Facebook only magazine. The article is titled "Visiting Arizona FRAG (Fish, Reef Aquarium Group)", which will showcase some of the most amazing Reef Aquariums in Arizona. The link is available just below.

    Great article on the local aquariums in the Phoenix area, all are outstanding.

    Shout out to Hunter and Frick. Hunter for his vast knowledge of wrasses and willingness to share, and Frick for his awesome ID's.

    Very cool Tony! There are some amazing tank setups in there. I had previously seen Elliot's frozen food dispenser, but not his whole tank/setup. Very cool to see. And you got some awesome shots of some of Hunter's obsession :)

    It's truly like a science lab in that place, with a different surprise behind each door in the garage.

    Tony,
    Really nice Article. Great review, stats and pictures.

    And Tony,
    I lived in Tuscon for 4 yrs,

    That cactus in your pic is a SMALL Sahuaro Cactus!

    Edit: Again Tony V. nice review of your trip.
    I guess I was trying to point out that Saguaro Cacti max at at 60FT!
    They are VERY slow growers- like 1-2inches/yr.
    They are a protected species, and all kind of laws for even trying to move one- of course if you get the permit,
    it has to be replanted by experts, etc.
