00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[00W]

I'm feeling much better than I have any right to. The usual bruises and miseries you get anytime you muck around with doctors but overall really good. I do think the anti-clotting meds are messing with my head a little.

Great to hear Tom!

Have a special event today, my oldest sister Susan is ringing the bell at the cancer center. She had a small piece piece of non aggressive cancer removed from her left lung last year.

Great news Jimmy!

Great news Jimmy! I know what a happy feeling it will be for her.

You are an inspiration to all of us Kevin, a true hero in my book and a great friend.
Keep ringing that bell my friend!

This is the Third time he’s been in France for 4 weeks ( the first time was last year). He always comes home thinner but raving about the food. I came up with a plan. I had my wife run out and pick up terrestrial snails ( frozen seafood section), pound of butter, more garlic, French’s mustard ( we only have American mustard), potatoes for fresh cut French fries and a loaf of bread, eggs and syrup for French toast. First two weeks 3/4 French food and 1/4 good ole red white and blue highly processed American food. Next 2 weeks 50/50, next 2 weeks 3/4 highly processed American food and then no more French foods. I’m hoping this completely skips withdrawals or at least minimizes it. If successful I plan to write a book and perhaps make it on Opra’s book club!

I forgot about these!

Stuff those with good ole American food so French on the outside, American on the inside!

Tank cleared up a lot faster than usual today...

Went with IO purple bucket today.
15 gallon change, skimmer clean, little rowaphos in the reactor, maybe get some of this cyno cut down a bit.

The tank is looking great Joel. Ive always loved the green purple color contrast. (See the entire left side of my tank). Then your tang gives that nice yellow to complete Mardi Gras color scheme!

Anyone have a carpet anemone? Are there any that will host clowns that do not get huge? From what I have read the minis don't tend to host clowns. My bubble tip died no idea why and I think my clowns miss it so I'm trying to decide what to replace it with.

Nope, sorry.

Sorry I have only used the red sea that Jennifer gifted me. I still have the light I won but haven't even taken it out of the box yet.

Joel, the only thing more American than baseball, hotdogs and apple pie is chicken salad smooshed between two French crescent shaped pastries.

I had a couple about 40 years ago but they were huge.

Nope, out of my pay scale but I do like them when I see them. One of my LFSs use all Kessils and their tanks looked awesome.
