Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
When I still partook there were two from Dogfish Head Ales that I liked .One was their 120 IPA and the other was their World Wide stout. 4 bottles in each pack. Roughly 18-20% alcohol. Tasty but expensive going for $45 for the 4 pack or 10 for singles.
I love 120 and 90 IPAs from DFH. Are they near you?
 
I have to get the GI addressed, seems like their only concern is the kidneys and just dropped the ball on everything else. I messaged my NP at my gastroenterologist this morning about getting in this week. I don’t expect a response until at least tomorrow.
A couple of bowlfuls of Taco Bell lettuce should help clear out any GI issues...?
 
Got the organic chemistry out of the way at 5am... good till Tuesday. Sold lots of coral yesterday and maybe more today. Going to the pool to chill today. 😎 Hopefully someone gets my powerwasher that needs a carburetor today and all will be well. I have to get rid of gas cause I can't start it anymore with my back.
Sorry for your back issues . Kevin is a chiropractor when he’s not at home nursing or in the hospital !
 
There is someone in this group that is looking for theses . I just can remember who . And it was recently .
Tom is trying to get rid of them and farming them for his Berghia.

Good morning nerds! Sorry I fell asleep in my recliner last night, I’m guessing about 9:30, jeez I’m turning into Peanut and Cornbread.

No that’s not right , peanut and cornbread go to sleep at 8:30 or 9:00 . Are you trying to say that you’re now working on your beauty’s sleep 😴. You’ll need to cut it back another 1/2 hour and do it for about 20 years or so to catch up . Or sooooo ! If it’s not too late lol !! 😝
