Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
🤔 No because we buy those in smaller quantities we don't have to worry about then freezer burning.
I sensed a little bit of bitterness in that sentence.
 
just how do you get that big cow in a small can....you have that "honey I shrank the kids ray gun?
Ever heard of picking?
 
??????????? in relationship to this topic of getting a cow in a can
I know a guy and it works for people. There’s Jill in case anyone has been wondering why she hasn’t been on for so long!

Good morning, all!

Wishing everyone the kind of Saturday that makes you feel proud.
My Saturday involves washing both of my cars, then going and fixing my father-in-law's pump for his aquaponics, then heading to a frag swap!
 
Steak medium rare and a baked potato with bacon, cheese, butter and sour cream. But we are having venison for supper since @kevgib67 thinks that's what I should call deer meat.
Oh my. This is going to be stuck in my head all day.
 
I totally understand...wish I could help...my job prevents alot of things too like travel w my girl and we only have my mom left ...so I understand...I didn;t have time to do what you are doing so we had strangers in the house...and I totally respect what you are doing...
I appreciate that a lot. Much respect back to you sir. We all do what we have to do for our families because it's worth it. 100%
 
lol...she did so she can have more tangs and clowns....
she would never say no to me...
In my neck of the woulds, we call that a keeper brother!
 
Venison? Do you ever can cow, chicken or pig meat? 😉
Chicken meat doesn't have an alternate name though. No one eats fried poultry lol

Poultry and dumplings
Poultry nuggets haha
