Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
the trick sir is to get a really large piece of black poster board and hold it up to block the reflecting light.
Thank you sir
 
A little motivation… apologies for the glare. I need to hang up a dark sheet or something to block the window.

Gorgeous Rock, oh I think I see a speck of sand on your sand bed,. Good news you have a spot for one more coral on the sand bed!
 
What Kev didn’t tell us was that he’d heard that fried bristle worm with Thai peanut sauce was good and decided to try it with repercussions…
I thought they said he forgot to ventilate the room while he was pickling.

Oh, Thai peanut sauce I haven't had that in decades. Good stuff.
 
Well, a cute little young female nurse offered to give me a bath I must be getting stinky, my heart fluttered and my wife says that’s alright sweetie I’ll take care of it 😡 . Must all you wives take any form of happiness from us husbands and rip it out of our chest like our hearts and throw it on the floor and stomp on it as we watch?!?!

That reminds me of an episode of Sienfeld when George is in the hospital and has a roommate and a beautiful nurse comes I and tells his roommate she is here to give him a sponge bath and pulls the curtain and he can see their shadows. After she leaves a short time later a male nurse comes in and tells George that he is here to give him his sponge bath.
