Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
When I first got them my rabbitfishes used to follow my Klein around and were smaller than him. Now they're both bigger and the larger one dwarfs him. They all seem to get along okay though
They do get along okay but it seems the Kleinii is a pest sometimes as they warn it off occasionally but never chase it.

Hello from waterworld! We've gotten 15" of rain in the last 4 hours and I think we're about 1/3rd of the way through it. My neighborhood entrance, is flooded and so are the two roads out of work. So if the F150 isn't high enough, I cant get oit of work or into my neighborhood!
I was caught in a flash flood once. Not fun. Stay at work for safety if needed. Better than getting swept away! I loved Waterworld. Wanted a sequel

I definitely should've listened to you my friend!
 
Oh my!!! You need Paul to build you a boat...
Fantastic idea. I should have thought of that.
I'm thinking pontoons with a huge industrial fan attached to his truck should work.
My neighbor just got a pontoon. They look fun
That's annoying. My work has lots of people who love to report their coworkers 😑
I hate petty reporting. It is needed sometimes though. The job depends also. Air traffic controllers comes to mind.
That's great news! I've been pulling for him!
Thanks. He is on a tight rope.
 
Ahhhhhhh

Did you make it home safely?
Yes finally! I ended up putting it in 4 high and drive over the median to "the shallow side of the highway" 🤣 🤣
I finally made it onto the interstate and home in time to feed the fish.
 
Yes, it was very small when we got it, about the size of a half dollar. It's growing fairly quickly, probably doubled in size. It isn't belligerent but more like an over-zealous, large-breed puppy. It's always following the other fish around, mainly the Pintail Wrasse but lately the Foxface as well.
That's cute. 🥰
Great man everything is great. 96 days and counting for the little one to get here.

We found out we’re having a girl! I’m excited she’s going to be doing everything with me
Congratulations on the little girl. Hide all the scissors for the next 15 years. Girls love cutting their own hair at the worst possible time.
 
Off to a baby shower. They are having a boy.
Have fun! Lifetime fishing or hunting licenses are fun gifts for baby showers.

I guess not everyone has redneck tendencies though..... 🧑‍🌾

Did you know that a flash flood was responsible for creating a law here in Arizona? Because of a flash flood, we have a law on the books that says "It is illegal for a donkey to sleep in a bathtub."

I told you they would miss you .
