That always amazes me looking at it lol, cant believe I have one on the way (should be arriving next week :D). By chance do you feed the scoly with pellets or any specific type, or do you feed it mysis or something special?
 
Have any of yall bought from blue zoo aquatics? They're the first shop to have both of the fish in stock that im after right now.

Getting wrasses makes me iffy if I have a dragonette as my six line decimated the pod population in my cube tank despite me dosing a ton of pods to the tank like 10 bottles & some of my culture lol.
 
I was up at 4:54 and John was still going at it . 🤭
Does that make me cool 😎
Almost but not quite because you went to sleep. In order to be psycho, er, um, cool then you have to forego sleep.
 
Good morning everyone! Today was the start of me and my hubby doing exercise in the morning together. We decided on Christmas we would start exercising together after the holidays. He had tried a Tai Chi program before Thanksgiving that he liked but after the trial they charged him eat way more than it was suppose to cost so he canceled it. We found a guy on YouTube to follow for Tai Chi and began this morning. It was good but I told him tomorrow to get me up earlier so I can at least have coffee before we try to exercise. Going straight from sleeping to exercising is not a good combo for me, the first 5 minutes at least I was having a hard time getting my eyes to focus on the TV screen. Lol I hope you all have an amazing day!
Good morning Amanda! Sounds like you both have a solid plan!
