Good morning everyone! Packing up to head back home good morning. Hope you all have a great day!
You too my friend. It's very rare that I'm the one to greet you good morning!

Yes it is! What on earth are you doing up this time of morning?
 
Big ole deer! I see neck roasts or neck jerky for days. Looks like a nice 18-19" spread on the antlers?
Almost 17 inches so you are close my friend! My great nephew asked if he could be in the picture with me.

I went to my LFS today, and they said the truck didn't arrive with any of their stock, so they didn't have the NSW I've been getting. So tomorrow I'm doing a very small salt mix water change and collecting a quart from The Gulf to add in.
John, use Chewy. I got 3 boxes of it there for 50 bucks, albeit with a 20 dollar discount they were offering on purchase 49+ last week. I know you want to support the lfs, but it’s good to have a solid backup like Chewy.
 
@kevgib67 Kevin , I guess the Buckeyes was a we won the war but lost a battle . QB out several weeks. Sorry bout that. Hope they have a reliable backup.
 
@Rocks reef @tbrown

I found a Pic of my setosa. You can see it is very high in the tank (very top left). You can also see that it is solid red lol. It's probably in 300+ PAR in that high shadow under the XR15.

Beautiful! Setosa definitely stand out!

Thanks Steve, unfortunately the backup is a true freshman and looked no beuno. First time in my lifetime we don’t have a good backup. The first year of the playoffs they beat Xichigan, won the Big Ten, beat #1 Alabama and Oregon to win the national championship with a third string quarterback. Good news is we have a Bi next week and maybe he can get back a week early.
