Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Good day off, thanks. I did sit in the doctors office for 1 1/2 hours before being seen. Told what I already have been told and knew, CT findings were no big deal and there was no reason I needed to come back to his office. Swung by my LFS, since it was close to get some food ( for the tank not for me) left with fish food a a couple emerald crabs since I haven’t seen my two in a few weeks. Water change and cleaned out the back chambers. But the best part, no laundry! Sorry did you just want me to reply good?
That is always important news on the health front!!!

Sounds like a lovely day in the neighborhood…

We require proof and pic’s usually so, no Good, does not suffice
 
Poor @Lowell Lemon ,sorry not sorry , ya' got your work cut out for you ,somewhere else too... :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing: ;)

Oh, you silly kids! We didn’t have cell phones with cameras back then. All the stupid clothes and things we did didn’t get documented, although in the gazillion boxes of pictures in my mother’s condo basement they are probably there.
Polaroid dude

So long as your list begins with @00W build thread then it is a good list!

Nothing has happened yet. Hair algae looks the same. Today is day 7. I forgot to tell yall that one of my hammers has been opening up only half way.
Mine did nothing at all until I found the magnet that was feeding the algae. As soon as I removed that, the algae started dying visibly in 2 days and was almost completely gone in 12.
 
My doctor yesterday was worried about the low cholesterol levels in my blood work, put me on a heavy and strict bacon regiment!
You jok but I lost about 100 pounds 2 years ago eating hummus, carrots, apples, oranges, and steak/chicken - I cut out all breads basically. I went and got my annual blood draw and the doctor told me I was risking a heart attack since my cholesterol was not registering. She said GO EAT A HAMBURGER AND FRENCH FRIES!
 
It has taken me all week to catch up to this point today. What is wrong with you all? Am I the only one that works in this bunch besides Joel?

Anyway carry on.
Define "work"
 
You see @Lowell Lemon is is about priorities. I think you may need to realign yours closer to ours: @00W build thread, god , family, country, Ohio State Football, work etc. in that order.
Why do you tank work so high on the priorities list?
