Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I have a decent pile. All stuff I wish was something else though mostly haha. I ought to try and trade but I hate dealing with people lol
Yes people can be a tuff one . Lol !! 🤣
 
I definitely have more stuff than I do a fish tank ? My fish tank is a 70 plus a 15 gallon sump and the STUFF I have for it has gotten out of control . Lol !! 🤣 🤑 I actually have pumps new in the box so that if something should go wrong I have a back up .
I'm always afraid to get rid of any of my aquarium items because I might need it one day... ROFL
 
That's a bummer.... I love Statham, and The Transporter movies were my favorites. I haven't seen the Beekeeper, but I want to
Ya, I really liked the Beekeeper!
 
I have boxes of filters, lights, multiple tanks all left over from being in the business. Some of it antique by now hahaha!
I also have several empty tanks just incase. Lol

And you might only look for it one a year and somewhere you’ll find it in your hoard Lol !! 🤣
I get it .
 
i have a bad habit of buying something. Not needing it. Putting it somewhere till I need it. Not finding it when I need it. Buying more. Then finding the original 😂

Are you trying to say you don’t like my stuff? 🤪
 
always great to dodge a bullet....speaking of this activity...We went and saw the new Statam (Stallones's buddy) movie last night..SHELTER...it was ok/good but not Expendable great...or like the mechanic or the transporter movies...honestly was a bit disappointed...
A lot of his movies have all been the same story just different bad guys lately.

Statham is a bad good guy, someone he loves gets killed, he uncovers a large network of worse bad guys, he kills everyone including all the way up into the highest levels of the government. The person he loves is still dead and he's almost dead.
 
Are you trying to say you don’t like my stuff? 🤪
I'm more or less talking about my collection of carbon, GFO, mesh bags, bottle brushes etc 😂
