Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
If our weather is right the two I placed should be ok for next Tuesday delivery. I had them shipped to my work so they aren't sitting outside until I get home.
I should do that!
 
Go back to bronners and have more chicken , it will make you feel better
Fried chicken and mashed potatoes are a good comfort food!
 
Buenos dias asere
Are you keeping warm brother? I haven't looked at Miami's weather, but if it's anything like what's happening in the south, I assume it's colder than normal.

Today it's 60 degrees, but on Friday it will drop below 40 again. I think there were record low temperatures here these past few days; it even snowed 3 or 4 hours from Miami.
 
Morning Thomas !

Slow AND Easy...



Iguana tacos for all you Florida denizens!

Not sure if you saw this one but this is an iguana that was "passed out" clinging to our seawall.

We ate iguana tail when we were in Panama
Yeah, but the real question is, "What did you wash them down with?"

I did. Kind of like alligator tail, the same texture. Flavor was kind of hidden in the TEQUILA but it was good! If I remember correctly, they served it with a type of rice that was seasoned and had various stuff in it (local dish) and mango.
There, I made it correct for you.

Meatloaf and mashed potatoes here!

Meatloaf and potatoes? I prefer Meatloaf with whiskey and/or good beer.
