Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Dodged a bullet, the hardcores went downtown to watch the Ohio State game while I was in the shower.I’ll be watching it at the house with a coffee in my hand instead of an adult beverage. :) ;) O-H!
 
Ya, after my transplant I had a doctor tell me he was pulling for me but thought I was never going to make it. Kidneys shut down and I was on dialysis. They took me off the transplant list three times because I was to critical to survive the surgery. Two days after they put me back on it, for the third time, I got the transplant. I honestly don’t know how my wife did it for two years. Worked full time, took care of the kids and everything else and spent as much time as she could with me over an hour away while I was in the hospital. God gave me an angel.
You have had a rough go there Kevin...glad you are still with us!

Morning y'all!

The Skipper #6 ! I'll never forget Bobby standing on the top step of the dugout cheering for his players while they were at the plate.
 
That was from 2018 after a liver transplant and a bout with cancer. All is good now, thanks.
Well Kevin, thanks for the slight heart tremor this morning. With that being said, God Bless my friend. I didn't know you then, but I can see that same cool, snarky spirit of yours, was obviously still there. ❤️
 
Please y'all tell me not to get into a big fight over a post I made.
I'm mad....
Deep breaths! Don't let their negativity bother you. Now which post do i can go get mad with you...

I don't know how to link it but it's about a mystery illness.
Trying to help the guy out, who seems totally with it and he quotes quarantine protocols and how those who don't quarantine are basically stupid.
He's just very arrogant.
 
And so it begins, O-H!
