Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Will Mr Bacon be processed or is he a pet?
You don't want to process a boar. His meat will taste horrible because of the "boar taint". The only thing you can do with boar meat is grind it into sausage and give it to dogs or someone you don't like. His breeder has already reached back out to me, and asked to buy him back from me whenever I'm done using/ no longer want him.
 
Good morning everyone. Lots of thunder and lighting and hard rain here this morning. We really need the rain to help with the fires burning around us.
 
Morning folks. The water is still really cloudy. Also, my return pump is slowing down, which is causing salinity fluctuations. I'm going to clean it out this evening.

Did you do any water changes? I'm having a similar problem with my return pump, but it's due to the silencer. I need to find a way to remove it and make it not make noise, but I don't know how.
 
I've only been to Dallas and Fort Worth. I've always wanted to turkey and javelena hunt
I lived in Texas for almost 20 years. I was out in San Angelo with the military, then San Antonio with the military. When I got out of the service, my daughter was 8, so I stayed in Texas to help raise her. I moved back to Michigan in 2019. I left Michigan in 1989 to join the military.
 
Ok I know I am way late on getting you guys pictures of my corals from diyreef on ebay but i finally got some tonight. The I think raja rampage broke off is plug in shipping so I'm not sure it will make it but I still have it in the tank.
Sorry the pictures aren't great.
You can glue the Raja to a frag plug
 
We've got a local fish store that does that - any free fish/corals/tanks get snatched up by one of the employees and then they're for sale within a day or less usually.
Now that's just wrong. He/She should pass it forward
 
Anna, what ever you do don’t look at Luis’s bowl of meat, it’s not dungaroo! Lovely piggy, they are supposed to be incredibly smart.
She did say they were Berkshire meat hogs! By the looks of hers, she'd need to put in the pit for a good 6-8 hours. Low heat and slow cooking! Sorry Anna K!
