My son called me down to see something weird that appeared in his tank this morning. Reminded me of my staple meal when I was in undergrad, ramen noodles. They are sea hare eggs.

Or it’s last nights leftover dinner ?

 

[CoralB]

Wasn’t around then . But it’s nice to see they have a front end Thanks !

That is not enough food.

That is not enough food.

You saw me in person, I’ve really let myself go. New Year’s resolution, lose all the excessive fat. It’s hard going through life fat and stupid, at least I can do something about being fat.

Happy New Year everyone.

I don't have any warm thoughts or clever sayings but I sure appreciate all of you!

BTW, so far 2026 hasn't been too bad.

I just want to take a minute and thank everyone here for putting up with me on a regular basis.
A little over a year ago I was fed up and ready to get out of the hobby after a failed "upgrade" now here I am a year later with the nicest reef I've ever had the privilege of caring for and it's mostly because of the advice I've gotten and the camaraderie I find here each and every day.
Thank you all from the bottom of my teeny tiny black heart!

It's been our pleasure. You have the exact personality that we needed to round this group out! And ill be honest, it's a relief to have someone help take some of the heat off of me and my shenanigans hahaha! Welcome to the family dude

ok guys here are the parameters. im not sure when or how the phos shot up.

 

[kingranch2003]

Thank you so much my dear friend this was a wonderful thing to read waking up this morning with my first cup of coffee! You guys here really keep me going on my hardest days. Even when I'm quite and don't say much I love reading all you guys post.

Much love to you dear. We need you around this place!

 

[kingranch2003]

Wow John , I was just going to say Happy New Year! I’m so lame. You nailed everyone perfectly, I would be proud to be booked into jail with you! Your coral selection is an inspiration to me and you’ll see a copy cat when I get my tank because after all Arby’s has nothing on you, we all know that you have the meats! Happy New Year’s!

Thank you Kevin. Your tank was a great inspiration to me in the beginning. You are 100% the reason this has a prominent front and center spot in my tank.

Happy New Year, my dear family, I am so thankful for the special bond we share. This past year has been filled with so many beautiful moments, laughter, support, deep conversations, and memories that I will always carry in my heart. Thank you for being there in both the good times and the difficult ones, As we step into this new year, I hope it brings each of you an abundance of health, happiness, peace, and success. May we continue to grow together, share more unforgettable moments, and create even stronger memories. I’m truly blessed to have you in my life, and I look forward to everything this new year has in store for us. Happy New Year, with lots of love!

That's straight from the heart buddy. We wouldn't be the Smorgasbord without you brother.

 

[kingranch2003]

Good morning Paul and happy New Year! So glad you joined the #Smorgasbord ! I recently read a thread where I was inviting you to pop. In here and you were resisting. I’m glad Tim eventually broke through and got you to visit here( I think Tim stating that I was the only weirdo here is what changed your mind),the #S#Smorgasbordouldn’t be the same without you.

That's a fact. That's my main man Paul!

 

[kingranch2003]

Wow! That was a very heartfelt read! John, you are something else my friend! I am proud to have gotten to know you on here and on a personal level!

It has been my pleasure Rock, I assure you. You're extremely important to me buddy. One day we're going to share a beer at the same bar. And I really look forward to it.

It's been our pleasure. You have the exact personality that we needed to round this group out! And ill be honest, it's a relief to have someone help take some of the heat off of me and my shenanigans hahaha! Welcome to the family dude

I'm happy to be here. And the good Lord knows I love me some shenanigans.

Good morning Smorgs! I kind of disappeared last night. I'm not going to apologize as the wife and I had an amazing evening/night. I also won't go into details as it would definitely break TOS rules on here!
But, for starters we had a fire outside, numerous adult beverages and just talked until midnight.
The baby gate thing is to keep the dogs off the other side of the patio where the furniture is.

Oh man what a cool spot to hang out! Way to bring in the New year you two!

 

[kingranch2003]

I don't mind saying that putting up with you has not been easy. One of the key motivators, for me, is that you are equally as ugly as me and guys like us need to stick together. So, there's that...


Walk into 2026? I kicked that daggum door down and ran in!


I still need to post a pic of this guys brother that we have.


@fishguy242 would be proud to see that fire!

Happy New Year to you and you patient, graceful and saint-like wife, Rock!

I live for these posts! This is world class outlining hahaha
