Omg ( that’s on my goat for you older reefers), never heard of it. Tell me more Wes! Is that jalapeños I see?
 
I think it would be cool if more people posted an FTS since CB started the trend. There are some tanks that I haven't seen in a while!








@tbrown
I don't have a recent one of mine. Been a busy couple of months so scraping coraline is required before pictures. 😬 Can't hardly even see the tank.
 
I'm off work all next week for a family vacation
Mine's in two weeks. Well, not really a vacation. Dropping my son off at the in-laws and leaving my daughter home with the dogs. Taking my wife to Vegas for a conference.
 
Sorry guys (and gals since there's like 30 of you now). Been up on the roof messing with my AC now. Looks like it just needs a good deep cleaning after these dust storms and monsoons lately. Lots of dust and grime.
 
If I understand, you’re flipping this house? Oh, by the way, care to share your First name? You don’t have to, isn’t that right Cornbread and Rumple!
I'm Lisa and yes, flipping the house.
 
Hey at least he’s not calling you something like Cheesy Beans

... I sat in some paint splash this past week after my day job, working my 2nd job, and then I was sitting on my butt painting baseboards... got called 'speckle butt' for leaving paint speckles... it can not be a nickname that sticks because I cleaned up the paint so the paint didn't stick (haa haa)
 
@Fish Think Pink Good to see you around the Smorgasbord. I reached out to you over 2 years ago when I first joned R2R and had no reefing experience. Lol I asked you something super general like, "HI, how do you reef?"
I hadn't joined the Smorgasbord yet and had no clue or no reefing friends!

You were very gracious and helpful, and I still appreciate that. I've gotten the hang of it so far.
Oh My Gosh - HOW COOL - so glad you settled in and got the hang of it! I knew you would <3
