My calico crab passed away yesterday, had him for about 2 years. figured it was coming when he pushed food away. Wife said to bury him with our other pets in our pet cemetery. Only crab in there, but there is a 11 year old freshwater cichlid there also.

Sorry for your loss buddy.
 
I'm hoping on yellow! No contractor in their right mind would use blue!
Red all day haha. That said, Milwaukee tends to favor electricians, plumbers, hvac, and Dewault tends to favor carpenters, and roofers etc.

You were able to enjoy watching him for 2 years! RIP little buddy. Did you have a name for him?
 
its all cool, he was a character, hand fed him some, but he got a hold of my finger once, so the end of hand feeding
Quite a pinch I'd imagine by the size of those claws

My step-son is an electrician. He's taking his journeymans test next week. He uses a lot of Dewalt, but also a handful of Milwaukee.

I cant get in on this. I use a lot of air powered tools like drills, drivers, etc. when highly repetitive work is taking place on my projects. I do have some Ryobi drill and drivers, but don't use them much.

Yes but I know that focus' and mustangs have the same parent company as well. Very different vehicles. Half my tools I use everyday arent available as a Dewault, if i wanted to run them, i'd still have to have milwaukee in the truck, and to be fair, my uncles ryobi keeps right up with his son's Dewalt :face-with-tears-of-joy: My drill and impact are worked hard, thrown in muddy trenches, and at 8 years old and still running strong, i'm incredibly happy with them. My cousin goes through an impact or 2 a year, but he puts in a lot more screws doing metal siding everyday lol.

You cant be an electrician and not use Milwaukee eventually. You can however never use a Dewalt. That is, if you want 18v crimpers, strippers, knockout sets, etc. There's a lot of others but I dont want to claim Dewalt doesnt make unistrut cutters or wire snakes, threaded rod cutters etc if they do.

Im not super against Dewalt, i bought a Dewalt miter saw, but as far as tools go, Milwaukee has such better tool options for Electricians, plumbers/hvac etc
 
Oh yeah I was, all 100 gallons and 5 feet of his territory.
No, he just does body slams, head butts.
Just startles me so I freak out. ;)
The Trigger was just telling you politely that those are HIS Aiptasia.
