You did the right thing by your standards brother. That's all the reason you need. You basically said, give it to someone that could really use it. That's high caliber in my opinion

The whole world would be a better place with more people like you in it Luis!
It really leave me thinking because I don't know if that company was upset that I denied them that gift, I hope not, because in reality I was not affected by the storms when there are people who lost a lot. Even that was a private private message because they don't want to make that gesture public but I hope they didn't take it the wrong way and understand that I didn't do it in bad taste, I simply did it to help the people from R2R who were really affected and that company.

Family, I have a question for you. I have a doubt about something that happened to me yesterday. For now, no names, but some of you here, if you have bought there, will know what I am talking about. Yesterday, someone gave me something for the hurricane. It is not that I did not want it, but I wrote back thanking him very much, but telling him that in reality I had not been affected by the storm and that it was better if that gift was used on someone who was really affected by the storm. I have a bad taste in my mouth because I do not like to deny gifts, but at that moment I believed that my way of helping the reefing community and that company was to tell them that. I have been thinking about it because I have not received a message back and I do not know if I did wrong.
Offering to give it to someone that was more affected is not at all wrong and they shouldn't have been offended.

You did the right thing.
No worries rest easy I'm sure they are not upset.

Unless it was a Twinspot... If it was a Twinspot you HAVE to accept it. No question.
On Sunday I'm going to a friend's lfs to see if he has it, I saw on Ig that it's in full stock on fishes, let's see if I can found it there, if not I'll order it with him ;)

I would have done the same thing Luis, I’m constantly tagged for giveaways, but I don’t need anything. No real estate left in my tank and I have all the equipment I need. I would rather someone who needs it get it. You are the best AI I’ve ever met.

Yes I agree.
You give AI a great name Luis.

@WalkerLovesTheOcean How is Florida treating you?
It's awesome... so so beautiful here. I just got back from the rehearsal dinner and welcome party. The country club that we went to was just stunning. The weather was perfect. You are so lucky to live in such a beautiful state!

Tim had a twinspot?
You know it’s hard to determine, Tim won’t chime in and I haven’t seen a single picture. At this point it’s just conjecture. It is great to have a cheesehead here, welocome!

I have been following along, just super busy! Remember, from MI and not a Packer fan, which means I can't join the cheesehead cult.

My recommendation will never be Miami lol even though that's where I live, but it's crazy here. Jacksonville is a quiet, nice place and not expensive at all.

I was born in Grand Rapids and parents were from Cadillac. Unfortunately I’m a Browns fan, same as the Packers.
