Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Well, I told myself this year I wanted to become more diverse in my music taste. Because usually I stick to the more underground rock/metal scene and don't deviate far from that. I said at the start of the year, "If I want to be considered a metal/rock head, I need to know the classics". Thus, I set out on an adventure this year, combing through the popular bands and albums, all the way to the more obscure, lesser-known bands or album releases. It's been a very enjoyable year for listening to music. Every Friday, I check through all the new albums that were released for the week, go through them, see which ones to add or skip, then either deep dive into those albums throughout the week, go through classic albums, or go back and listen to albums I've had saved this year. It's a long-winded process, but I have a down where it's not overwhelming, but more of an enjoyment.
I can relate to that almost research style of music discovery. Sometimes I end up so far down the rabbit hole, that I make a full circle. You've definitely come to the right thread. This group loves our music!
 
No rules is space rock baby!
you want to hear some crazy sound, run your classic tunes through a tube amp. so much more of a crystal hollow punch sound. the electronics of today just don't cut it. I'm glad I never got rid of all that stuff.

And they old TVs that when you turned them on/off it would take a few minutes.
(not my photo) I had one of these tv's in my room so I could play Atari 2600 games on it. Got it for free at a yard sale, and it was an absolute beast trying to get it up a flight of stairs. Sadly, the color was somewhat busted on it and it couldn't properly display blue so everything was red/green. Eventually, picked up a small 14-16-inch wood TV as its replacement.

That's all that's allowed to play my vinyl. All vintage tube Zenith console.
