Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Just finished eating some overnight oats - pumpkin spice. Also had me a cup of Black Rock coffee with a teaspoon of honey. Breakfast is done, staring at the old laptop trying to decide what work I should attempt to accomplish today.

Also, got a text from a vendor - guess I'm not feeding myself lunch today. :D
 
Is this the place people talk about food, dogs and tanks...in that order?
 
If so here's 2 of 3 in one photo!

My wife makes these delicious mini cream horns from scratch! And of course Mr. Bingley wants one! :p

Oh my gosh how cute!!!
 
Will do later.
Took the dog to the shelter.
No chip.
Brought it home again.
Lady texted said she would house the dog until the owner was found
So....
Wife and daughter brought it to their house. After an hour they were home but decided the house and especially the people were no bueno so they went back and got the dog.
Needless to say this dog is a total doll.
Super well behaved and chill.
So it had a bath and went to bed with my daughter but not before midnight :upside-down-face: :rolleyes:
I'm exhausted up at 2:30 but I'm glad he's got us, not them and not wandering around cuz he's pretty much a house dog
Would make a nice meal around here.:oops::astonished-face:
We'll see what happens....
I'm thinking you might have a new dog...
 
Thanks for the well wishes everyone! Clone is a bit better this AM. Fever went down last night, but still diarrhea every couple hours. Taking him to urgent care a bit later because we finally figured out that his incoherent rambling about being shaken and hearing loud noises was his interpretation of being dizzy with a headache (maybe ringing in his ears?)--hopefully not vertigo for some reason. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Berghia and pods arriving to the office today. Good thing I trained up the coworkers on tank maintenance!
Good to hear and I hope it keeps moving in the right direction.

Ummm, slept with your daughter.,.

Welcome to the Smorgasbord family lil pup! He/she is yours!
 
To be clear, I'm asking if they are for dogs or humans, not asking if dog or human are ingredients.

HA! These are for humans...and dogs! :p
 
HA! These are for humans...and dogs! :p
I think most things that are for humans are for the dogs, or at least the dogs think so.
 
Just a continuance on another international take on our favorite food, enjoy.
