I was going to clean up tanks for pretty pictures, however, a friend & I are going fishing on Saint Patrick’s Day.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

PS: TOO MANY TANKS.

Are you connected with this company?

Hi Patrick, not at all. Just a nick because the brand name of my diving suit is Beuchat

In this thread, Coral Holibiont, I discuss Angels “white paper” thread

THE CHEMICAL INTERACTION BETWEEN SPECIES AS AN HYPOTHESIS FOR A MATURE TANK

Algae, unavoidable companions. Algae are undoubtedly one of the inhabitants of a reef tank that cause the biggest headaches to hobbyists. In a world idealized by aesthetics, we might wish that these living beings were out of our system...

Hi Patrick, very busy lately. But happy to read you again!

I considered that you & Jaques Cousteau had partnered to endorse all things sea worthy.

Also busy which is a good thing. I have only read the first chapter of your book and I am getting mileage by quoting it. I really like your insight on the complexity of reef ecosystem as a super organism, similar to ant colony.

In 1972, while attending my first Magna Conference, PHD Marine Biologist, Martin Moe said about reef ecosystem:

“It’s not Rocket Science; it’s more complicated.

Didn't you say the same thing in my thread?
Also not to call you old but 1972 is older than both my truck and my parents. I have older than normal parents. My dad being born in 61 and my mom being in 69. I honestly wish I could have experienced thoes times without the internet and whatnot.

I was born in 1948 and graduated from high school in 1966. Was in the USAF Nov 1966 - Nov 1970. Served four 90 day tours in Cambodia and as a young crew chief on a modified AC 47 gunship, we flew the Syria/Israeli border during 6 Day War June 1967.

Janus Joplin said about the 1960’s; “If you remember, you were not there”.

Yes, I quoted Martin Moe. Let me quote @Randy Holmes-Farley in a discussion on biochemistry in which he said; “Pat, we sent a man to the moon 50 years ago, yet we can’t cure Cancer”.

What did you fly?

What did you fly?

I was a mechanic and flying crew chief on a cargo aircraft AC47 (Puff the Magic Dragon) which was modified with General Electric gattling guns. I only flew on combat missions to get the flying time for extra pay. The pilots fired the guns. I repaired aircraft on the ground. Our base was in Cambodia and we supported 82nd Airborne Rangers who dealt with the Khmer Rouge.

I forgot if we are talking about tomatoes as a fish or as a vegetable.

I stopped using heaters in all of my marine tanks except those outdoors and those heaters are set at 65 degrees falling. I operate below 75 and prefer 72.

I have so much to learn on here. So far I like what you write. I come from freshwater side and everybody freaks if you don't run a 78* heater. Most of our tanks in our house are unheated.
