Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Oh, that really sucks. That's going to sting a little.

Lies. That side of @kevgib67 Kevin is all made up lies.


He thinks that about me so don't feel flattered!
yeah, the heat exchanger had "a lot" of water in it. the condensation was no longer draining from inside of it. the pump it was draining to was still working so sometime of sludge must have occurred internally.
 
I got one, not even meshuggah is going to keepme up late this week. Last week was wild, too many late work nights and i need some sleep before whats left of my brain decides to leave me.

Burrito in a bag????

Since logging on, I see we're still bogged down in yesterday's thread. I for one am tired of hearing, talking, and thinking about it. I tried to talk to Luis yesterday in private and offered him prayers, encouragement and everything else someone would do for someone they care about. He posted his final comment and deleted our conversation.

Well Ill tell you guys what. That's all the energy I had in me for that garbage. My mother's dying, my health is bad and that's just to name a few things. In other words, I dont really have the time or effort to put up with any of this anymore. I dont have any interest in pandering to a grown man's hurt feelings. If you guys feel like trying to reach Luis you go right ahead. I will not. I tried to talk to him yesterday at his own request and he blocks and deletes our conversation. Yeah no thanks.

I have a build thread that anyone's welcome on. You can catch me there. If you make a comment, I wont hold you responsible for anyone else's response to it. Although John's build thread after dark doesn't sound as catchy...

There is really no need for anyone to leave in my opinion and I wish you would reconsider.
