Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
What do you hunt? I hunt rabbit and deer.
Anything edible. Birds, squirrel, elk, deer, javelina, I got a goat a few years back, hopefully antelope soon, maybe wild hogs in Texas this year....

That's me if it's something I like to eat then I would hunt it. For example I am not a huge fan of turkey so I don't hunt them. I would love to elk hunt but the only ones near me are on the reservation and are protected.

We've got them out here in AZ.
 
My uncle keeps telling me he's going to put in with me. It takes lots of points.
 
hmm..hobbies....not sure I have one outside of tank...I guess building beautiful things with my hands, what ever you would call it remodeling, updating things around my place and friends. Gives me a chance to put down the tools of my work and be in a safe environment....ooooh I got one, having friend's over just to relax and enjoy quite life times
 
It's a lottery system here. We have to apply for the draw, then bonus points are added if we're not drawn. When we draw we lose our bonus points accumulated.
 
I most likely won't be there for March Madness. Looks like I'll be at the hospital.
What is going on @Katrina71 , are you OK? You don’t have to answer, I understand if it’s none of my business but sounds like scheduled surgery.

Do you have a show on Netflix called Meat Eaters? I’ve watched you hunt and cook!
 
This is probably my favorite of all the ones I have made. It was a gift for my sister in law. I have never made one for myself but maybe one day I will make one for me using the sabe colors but a different pattern.
Whoa.
 
No hobbies for me I can't really do anything . Not that talented, work too much.
I wanted to play MLB but that never happened.
I raced cars for a few years.
Other than that pretty boring guy.

That wasn’t you in the Yankees uniform that you posted?
 
Hi, first did you rinse the sand if you are using dry sand?
Me I would add the salt in the brutes and check salinity on each and check once diluted. For the tank, add rock, after the sand and finally the salted water. I am a beginner so...
