Not this time my horses have to have their feet done tomorrow and I am getting the mandarin goby tomorrow so that's the end of my fun money...

Ah horses need pedicures too, that's right. Can't wait to see the Mandarin Goby! They're beautiful fish, I've never had the courage to buy one.
 
how's the back today?
It was not too bad but then I needed to spend some time brushing my horses. They are shedding really bad right now and needed to be brushed and my heart needed to spend some time with them. I am sitting with an ice pack on it right now in hopes I will be able to move tomorrow and I'm getting ready to take some muscle relaxers.

Yes they do if I get shoes on both horses and their feet trimmed its $180 plus I always tip my farrier because he charges a lot less than a lot of the ones around here do. I use to have a lady that did it and it would have been $150 per horse...
Honestly I'm pretty nervous about getting the mandarin but I have been researching how to cultivate brine shrimp, phytoplankton and pods and how to train them to eat frozen food.
 
Ahh! Good old Keith. He comes around once in a while - not often enough to remember who we are.

Also, side note, Kephin did once claim to be Tim. However, you can tell he's an imposter as he's never had a Twin Spot.
Not just Tim but a better version of Tim. Look in my cart . Say what, not one but two twinspot gobies!!

You got this! We believe in you!
 
So, you're like 27.5? 😉


I never went or go easy on my body. And look at me now!


Did you present him with the shovel and wheelbarrow yet?
Probably second half of the summer, still a lot of money to spend on the new tank.
 
Funny you mention them because I had just watched this video the other day, he got a torch with BJD


I was just wondering because that's where the pretty prawn goby he posted is.

I guess they're pretty popular I just hadn't ever heard of them until that video.
