Good morning, all.

Looks like I missed about 12 pages and I'm not going to ketchup. I hope there were no troubles, disasters or sadness.

Make today a banana split with cherry-on-top kind of day!

I paid for the Ultimate supporter package so need to take advantage of all the features 🤣 Thank you, it's a favorite in the tank now and always out in open view... surprised I find it up in on the rocks as well in the mornings. Quite the active fella and not like you hear from others that say they hide 24/7.
That's awesome! My lfs had some the other day. Is he mostly in the sand? That's cool that yours climbs the rocks.

He's mostly on the rocks but in the open and quickly jumps down the moment food hits the water.
 
Yall were almost blessed with a podcast of cooking with Kev today but the wife got up at 6:00 am ( I usually get up before her but was up late due to the #Smorgasbordafterdark disaster) and started the meal I was going to make because we are celebrating her birthday today. She turned 58 yo last Thursday. She’s a real cougar, 15 years older than me! I slaved yesterday making the cake and even the candles!

Mine comes out some at night but mostly I just see his arms coming out from under different rocks to grab a tasty morsel of food as it floats by.

I think I got lucky with mine because I've had them in the past as well and they were as you describe yours is.

I have been neglecting my freshwater tanks so before I placed corals and cleaned glass on my saltwater I did some maintenance on my 125 gallon freshwater. I will post a video of it tonight for you guys right now there is way too much glare to get a decent video of it. The others need some TLC as well but my back can't handle more today.
