Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Paul, I knew I liked you! I'm blessed I'm in good health and workout regularly because I can literally eat a whole bag of that popcorn! There is a place here called Horrocks that makes all their popcorn fresh in these huge vat like things right in front of you. They have probably 30 different flavors and walking back to the area where it's made smells like a slice of Heaven. If Heaven smells like fresh buttered popcorn that is
Come on man, we all know heaven has to smell like bacon!
 
@luis angel any news of the royal and the sea star? Favias are still doing better?
The royal pencil still lost, the sea star thriving around the tank and the favias still the same, not worst but not better either, thank for asking Rémi
 
On Tuesday I had Chinese and Japanese food. I thought I would mix it up with Chinese and Thai cuisine.

No clue what's for lunch today. New Employee Orientation/Supervisor lunch so they're catering.
 
There’s something in the fog don’t go into the fog, The Fog or the movie that takes place in Maine, The Mist?
bunch of odd movies based here but never filmed here too. I think that lighthouse movie was based here but filmed in Nova Scotia. there was also one about these women on an island that owned a hotel or something. something about those coastal islands. maybe one day I'll find the buried treasure!
