Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Apparently, my filter disconnected somewhere between work and home. However, at least what I type is funny..verge of inappropriate..at least in my feeble mind
Don’t make me report you a third time Rock!
 
He’ll be like that for hours, if it surpasses 12 hours it will need to go to ER!
Naw, just beat it down like homemade bread when the yeast grows!
 
I still wear Airwalks and my son pulled my Fubu and Boss jeans out of the garage the other day and started wearing them.
Thanks for sending some 90s swag into the modern generation! You have done your part sir 🫡
 
Lucky you no more poopie diapers! I think those are gonna be the death of me 😆
One day they just stop lol. Then it just seems like a crazy dream that you had.
 
For the record, the deep fried Oscar was a joke. Almost became a reality but my wife said I had to try to give him away first.

Also, I love my wife and never tried to return her. But her parents wouldn't take her back if I tried so there is that...
I was 50/50 on whether or not you were serious, Mr. Clownfish thrower! 🤣
 
AH Kessil are doing wonders for the new tank...
Corals are hap hap happy...
I do love Kessil. I ran two a360x over my 40 breeder. I would have had to bought three more for adequate coverage on my new tank. So I went with Meridians. However, as soon as Quanta releases his Altair, I’m ditching the Meridians
 
I posted a bunch did you see them?
Yes! And then wanted them a lot.... I am so twisted in my head right now. I really want to set up another planted tank. It's been years.

Oh man! I’d have made a fish sandwich out of it! Little mayo, creole seasoning, lettuce and tomato.

Oh, and consider my leg pulled. Well played sir <tips hat>

Mmhmmm… then you see them crouched behind the Lazy Boy with the grunt face. Next up is shaking it out of their Batman skivvies
