It was the only way I could get a pick without giving away the fish 😂
 
Poor Adelaida has pertussis (whooping cough). Her NP called this morning to tell us. Our normal pharmacy is closed on Sunday, so we had him call it in to a Walmart pharmacy instead. I drove into Eugene after Mass and picked up azithromycin (per NP prescription).
Oh no Wes prayers are started now my friend 🙏
 
I'm trying to figure out if I can spend the SBB gift card I have, but I'm not seeing any available corals. Is this normal?

He basically only does livesales now.

My only complaint was a lot of his corals are very genericly named. I got 2 corals that I think are a favia of some kind that are simply labeled "encrusters"

Because he buys wholesaler, chops, heals, and sells. No named corals unless he makes up a name. Sometimes he'll give the same coral 2 or 3 different names depending on where he cut it from and what colors it's exhibiting.
 
Thanks so much!
Sorry crazy day today at work 😅
Where'd you get him and what's his temperament like if you don't mind me asking?
TSA has them in stock Joel.

That makes sense. I have one "acan" thats incredibly weird and doesnt look like the rest i got from him. Seems to be slowly falling apart. I think it needs extremely low flow. I tucked it in between some rocks and seems to be doing OK ish. But I think it was a misidentification. Ultimately I was happy with my purchase, but the idea that its a chop shop makes a lot of sense
 
That tracks. Little Foot was my next guess.
Thats land before time bro, I got the complete discology! For real, I saw it at Walmart for like $10 and I figure the kid will watch it eventually. That was my jam growing up haha

My boys loved little foot! Was it really necessary to have his mother die?!?!?
