It was a long time ago... A very cool bug-- loves it hot and acidic! 5 minutes ago, albertareef said: Very cool! The adaptations involved in survival in such extreme micro environments are pretty fascinating. Yes, fascinating to see life thrive at more than 100 degrees Celsius or in conditions with almost no energy available. There are very few sterile places on the face of the planet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I’m not mistaken, you also successfully kept poison dart frogs until recently. I thought of this due to another forum member posting about his new additions earlier today.

I still like to lurk the forum, keeps me up to date haha 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdxmonkeyboy Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Its cool to get to know what people do!! I received a wildlife science degree from OSU and then 3 years in the peace corps primarily working with the EU on getting new national parks off the ground and lots of environmental education and alternative livelihood projects. Upon returning to the US I spent a little over a decade as a wetland biologist/restoration ecologist and had projects all over the west coast. I got tired of consulting and about 5 years ago decided to grow marijuana full time. So now i own and manage a 7,000 sq ft production facility in NE portland. So now I am part engineer, part electrician, part permit cordinator, part botanist and full time baby sitter.

Reefer503 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi, I'm Jeff, I've been around PNWMAS for years now mostly as a lurker. I'm ex-military and have been doing programming, mainly web development for the last 16+ years. I work mainly on very large scale, high-profile web properties and government sites. I'm terrible at aquascape despite also have a degree in art and design, so if anyone is open to giving tips on how to better arrange the random rocks in my tank, shoot me a message. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
