00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[tharbin]

Never been there. Which one is this???

That's AZ Reef Monster. Really nice couple. Their dogs (they got the second one recently) are usually behind the counter. They're a little high on dry goods but middle of the road on livestock. Not the biggest selection of fish but almost always good healthy coral. Only problem is they tend to use the new-fangled names for their fish. I usually just point if I want a fish. I actually get most of my fish at Aquarium Arts now--not something I would have said 15 years ago.

@luis angel days like today make me feel like you picked the right area to get into the trades :face-with-tears-of-joy: spent half the day trudging through knee high snow tracing wires for pole lights that aren't working.

My day was today in a warehouse assembling some units, the irony of my job is that when the air conditioning starts working we are already gone hahaha

My best friend and I went twice a week off the coast in California for about 10 years.
Can't say I miss everything about California but that I definitely miss.
Think I left part of my soul out there somewhere....

I completely understand what you're saying Joel. And I can relate to that. You're a kind hearted and thoughtful person. You definitely brought that back with you.

I think, I hope... everytime we lose something in this life, we replace it with someone or something we need even more.

That's awesone, there are so many regulations for that fish here, is it the same there?

No regulations at all! I grew up on the Gulf of whatever it's called these days, and have never even heard of snook being caught here. A population would probably have to be established before it is regulated. It's almost like a fantasy fish over here.

Speaking of that, I also discovered why I love beer so much, it's part of me too :face-with-tears-of-joy: :face-with-tears-of-joy::face-with-tears-of-joy:

I don't blame you Luis! Those guys look like awesome beer drinking buddies.

with me saying "please don't move the needle, please don't move the needle". but I made it through just fine. no crying! just surprised the nurse allowed that.

I mean, the nurse was practicing medicine, why not your kid?

They don't post their sales anymore so it's hard for me to justify the drive to Aquarium Arts. LE has great prices and I really love that they QT everything for 2 weeks.

If the steak doesn't moo when you bite it you might as well eat charcoal...

Same but yet I climb into tree stands to hunt... lol

 

[kingranch2003]

My last turbo snail is doing great and actually moved across the tank. I think he's fully recovered. Conch disappeared most likely under the sand or rock, and the urchin has moved on rocks and glass, I placed him on the rocks just now hoping he will get to work!

My conch disappears for days at a time. I would handle the urchin too much. Good work buddy

I feel that haha. I don't work on pole lights until it gets dark early then I'm outside in a boom lift in -10°f weather changing pole heads all day lol

I lost my brother in October and my reef tank and this community helped me to stop going down that dark hole every night when I got home from work.. I got my tank going and kind of lost it through the whole ordeal and it was like, as soon as I needed it, this whole other world was there waiting for me. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

It's got legs and knows how to use them...

Time to unwind from the day...

We might as well practice too! You got any left over boiling water syringes? Let's start a blood bank :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

we have lots of air-conditioning here. Just open the doors. Want some? I'd rather have some heat right now.

I don't have anything remotely that professional to QT fish or even hold them for awhile before selling
