00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[Rocks reef]

Same here. I've never had ig or Facebook. I'm definitely not someone that thinks people shouldn't have social media. A lot of people really enjoy it, I totally get that. It's just not for me. I keep my life fairly private. I just couldn't help but immediately feel amongst family here. This thread is by far the most I've shared in an online community.

Same here. Like I said in another post. I rarely post on socials. But, like you, I felt an instant connection with this thread. Like minded, hard working, big hearted...I could go on. But, yes, this is a family to me even though I haven't been here long. I bet @00 didn't have any idea this thread would end up bringing people together.

Good morning! I see you are up early as well

I'm always up around 5am. My husband and I have coffee together before we start our day. It's peaceful normally because we put our pack of dogs out in the yard and we just sit at the kitchen table and enjoy it. Most morning he makes us a small but expensive breakfast of something like eggs... LOL

Anyone know if spaghetti worm would be on/in the rock?

Yes ma'am. The are in the Euclid family same as bristle worms. These are a filter feeder though. Both are excellent CUC and safe.

Good I think I will just leave them alone for now then unless I stay noticing something wrong.

Awe! Building memories is a great way to start the day. My wife is retired so I get up and start trucking along. I enjoy the quiet of the mornings before going to take care of patients all day.

Yes the quite mornings are great and make the day start better. I had a patient cry in my office yesterday which is odd for me because I work in account receivable but she had gotten some news that her boyfriend cheated on her and gave her a STD luckily it's one that's treatable but she didn't look ok and when I asked her if she was ok she started crying. I just have her a tissue and let her cry it out until she was calm again.

Eggs are ridiculous right now! Thankfully, we have some friends with chickens and get them for free...but still...they are pricey!

That's rough.
At least you were there when she needed it!

We use to have chickens but a have an issue with coyotes or a neighbors dog and it got to were every time we let them out to free range a bit we would lose one. Pretty sure it was a Coyote because my stepson seen it in the yard one day but of course it was gone before he could get a gun.

I feel bad for her and I didn't know what to say to make it better so I just let her talk.

Ok what am I doing wrong I have tried just super glue gel to mount my frags on rocks and coral epoxy and a combination of both and still sometimes they fall off...

Good morning peeps! I wish I got paid for being on R2R.

I find it a frustrating task. Perhaps your not holding it against the rock long enough for the epoxy and glue to completely set?

The ones with the green mouths, yes, totally normal. They will change due to lighting, parameters, etc. That's why I don't buy one simply for the name. I buy because I like it. Your torches are beautiful by the way!!

I never buy by name, not worth it

I use only glue as everytime epoxy is very hard/dry maybe because of the temperature here. It is not hermit proof. This morning, Mushroom vs chalice = mushroom is the winner.

Good morning everyone

Same, only glue, When I apply it I blow it out of the water for 10 or 20 seconds and then I hold it for another 10 or 20 seconds pressed against the rock and 95% of the time it doesn't fall off anymore.

Super glue is very temporary and will eventually break loose. It's great for holding frags until they encrust.

I only use super.glue but frequently have frags fall off. You're doing nothing wrong.
