Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
since mine is doing OK, I think I may get another. like a yellow tip. I may even go back and get that green mouth tube nem like Luis' father has. even though it's tiny, I wonder how fast it would grow?
Mine grew fast when I had one back in the day. It came in really small. I had no clue what I was doing either. I fed it flakes sometimes lol....
 
Sorry all! I was super quiet today. Busy busy busy. I even interviewed for a Water Manager position at another city.

I was almost hoping I'd bomb the interview. I'm not convinced I want the job. 😂

Unfortunately I feel like I may have blown their socks off instead... 😳

Sometimes its hard leaving a job. Maybe they won't offer you enough money or something and it will make the choice easier for you.

I've been here for 20 years this coming January. It's going to be difficult to get an offer worth leaving for. That's a lot of seniority to give up including my PTO earnings.

It would have to be a really really great offer after that many years for me. Sometimes I still regret leaving my last job for the one I have now. I left to cut my drive time from 45 minutes each way to about 15 but I still really miss the ladies I worked with there we were more like family than coworkers.

I had that happen to me once. I didnt even apply for the promotion. I went in there acting like I didnt care, and he "loved my laid-back attitude". I got the position and ended up being glad in the end lol
