I don't think we haven't formally introduced ourselves, we have several friends and family members of that age here in the group, and all is not lost. My name is Luis, nice to meet you

Good morning everyone! Hopefully, the Cloudflare issues will chill out, and people can enjoy the internet (or Reef2Reef) again!

Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day - Dalai Lama

Just remember today that keeping a positive mindset and focusing on the positives can change your mind and your life for today! So let's all go into today and focus on the positives around us and not focus on the negatives!

Good morning Smorg.
Kind of a rough morning so far. Driving to work and a semi pulled out in front me. I swerved to miss broad siding it. It was sleeting so the roads were slick. I put the Beemer in the ditch. I'm fine, couple small dents on the rear bumper but oh well. It's fixable.
I will get caught up shortly.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 6 28.6%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 4 19.0%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 4 19.0%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 6 28.6%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 4 19.0%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 4 19.0%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 1 4.8%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 1 4.8%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
