Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
You're going to love it! The important part is to declare the pan that you cooked your ham in with the coffee. Stiring in a little butter and/or flour is great to thicken it a bit. It sounds odd, but is wonderful!
How, exactly, does one go about doing this? Do they run around the vicinity, while waving the the pan in the air, yelling, "I AM USING THIS PAN TO COOK MY HAM IN COFFEE!"
 
Tom, if you listened to this song with your Coffee, or at any point really, I have even more respect for your dedication to the music!
Absolutely did. Lousy coffee though. Signature Select (Safeway) breakfast blend. It used to be okay but we either got a bad batch or they've started using Lime Beans instead of Coffee Beans for their roasting.
 
I have never heard of that goby before but now I want one
They're cute but a member of the clown goby family so could be an issue with SPS and they are more 'fragile' than most of the clown gobies. One of my LFSs gets them in once in a while.

last year I ran in to this guy that had a roadside coffee place DownEast. He actually had his own farm in Costa Rica I think it was. You just don't think small places actually have their own farms. many just buy from farms.
 
You're such a chauvinist. How do you know it wouldn't be a ma'am , a miss, a they or an it?

Down with the patriarchy!
The patriarchy is already down.

That's what I assumed. Is this not correct?
 
Would it be possible for me to not put the entire two gallons of Snacklebox in getting today in my tank and keep some to spot fed Griselda? And do you guys think its better that I leave her in the big tank or would you take her out and put her in a smaller tank that's about 5 gallons with some sand and live rock?
 
Yes I encourage everyone in this thread to purchase ham and pork products so I can have a bonus next March.
Do you work for a ... I have to be careful how I word this, Kevin is lurking... meat processing company?

Yes, yes I do... was physically working at a full harvest plant until 2023 when I went remote.

I probably missed it, but what type of fish is Ms. Griselda?
