Hello my friend. I hope you had a good one man. Im sure you put out some delicious groceries at the restaurant today
Less wacky than usual, so that was nice.
 
Late getting here, been reading about Live Aquaria going under, Sad. I still have some of the corals I purchased with a gift card I won from R2R . That's the only time I have used them. its funny how someone posted pics of the tanks at LA but they are empty. The livestock has been moved already.
 
Morning y'all!
Don't let the wackiness get out of hand today my friends!
Peace ✌️

Finally checking in! Not too wacky but I got to go on a tour of a facility that powder coats some of the water fittings that we use. Long day, lots of meetings, straight to church to serve dinner before our service. Sitting down to relax now after service. Probably heading home in a little bit. 😬
 
Good morning Camden, not a lawyer but I did watch to Kill a Mockingbird, a Good few Men, Judge Judy and My Cousin Vinny. How can I help?
I'm disappointed you didn't watch Jury Duty...

stay beautiful i love you GIF
 
Good morning from Sweden

Anyone else getting a wierd let's see if you are a human message then check from R2R?

Yes - very annoying - has started to become a real problem - especially if you use a VPN. It has just gotten worse and worse. It must be a setting on R2R because there are no problems on other websites

Thank you!

Thanks @Lasse and welcome to the group! Great to see you here!

No, not Paris. Italy.
Do not miss a walk in Trastevere - a part of Rom - and especially - don't miss the 404 - name not found bar. I always visit this bar if I am in Rom. And do not miss an Aperol spritz when in Venice.

Have a good trip

Is it a round tour or are you staying at one place?

Sincerely Lasse

Kevin I'm very disappointed that you didn't get pictures of your lunch just because your new boss was there. Apparently you do not have your priorities straight... first its is then its trying to impress your new boss...
 
I have been using Santa Monica scrubbers as my primary reef filtration for 10 years

On my current system, which does not utilize water changes or a skimmer, all filtration is biological and natural, with a Santa Monica surf 2 as the primary nutrient exporter

What questions do you have
I’m thinking of trying one in my 33 AIO instead of a skimmer. Just not sure which to get. I like the HOG ones but my back glass is blacked out and not sure I could get to it to cut out a square for it so looking at the small drop ins. I won’t need it for a bit as I’m just now getting it started up. I do tend to feed a little heavy but was thinking the .6 should do the trick.
