Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
How is it that you can give being in the hospital Jackie-O style? Very classy.
Now that is a very high compliment- and I’m not even in her hemisphere.

But I do like that you said it - makes me giggle,
 
I do have them allowed but still don't get them sometimes
Same! I’m pretty sure China has hacked our accounts to gain access to our security secrets! No more Moo goo gai pan for me!
 
Brings a whole new meaning to muscle shirt!
He had a rough night out partying with his homies and watching the women’s college basketball championship game. Poor guy couldn’t even make it to bed. You can’t see it in the picture but I put a little garbage can near him just in case.

I know I'm a lot more peaceful when my belly is full so you might be on to something with this idea...

Now, if we could just drop tacos by airlift on both sides of the enemy line in the Ukraine and Gaza the fighting would end immediately.

Wouldn't that be wonderful if it were that simple...

Anything that's bold won't give you notifications because you missed a notification. Unfortunate, if there's a "scheduled post" those don't notify you and they stop notifications after them until you look at the scheduled post.

Also, you can occasionally mark all notifications read so you start getting them again.

Yes!! This is a smaller version of mine - I love it!

I didn’t get a skimmer but absolutely got their ReefMat Roller - a game changer and no mess, no fuss.

And when they mean whisper-quiet, the are not exaggerating. The new downflow knob lets you tweak to the tiniest increment. Also, I have two Red Sea pumps (main and one for UV), also quiet.

Remember, this is 3 feet from my bed and I’m a light sleeper.

For the entry, it’s a lot of work, every day; but that’s how I won my TSA trip.

DO IT!
 
Well, up here in Cleveland they were calling for partly cloudy but the sun has been out the last few hours. If this keeps up in about an hour we shall see a full eclipse of the sun for about 2 minutes. Really odd, schools are closed and half my patients are off from work. Hotels completely booked and they moved the Gaurdians home opener to 5:00pm.

Just went outside to see if we could see it but it's too cloudy. :loudly-crying-face:

It already started here with the full eclipse beginning at 3:13. People are in my parking lot looking up. On the Turnpike when I drove up this morning there were a lot of signs instructing people not to pull over are park on the side of the turnpike.
