Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
from what I remember, you put 2 fingers on the ramping graph and drag it to the time you want. if it's already at 12 hours, you drag the whole graph.
I will try that. Thank you.
 
I do have the extruded aluminum and brackets to make a mount for my 40B, but everything seems to be good with the K7's I have on it now. I would hate to mess it up.
I agree if it ain't broke don't fix it! Lol
 
are you only trying to change the time?
Yes I tried setting up a program but that didn't work. I was running the pre-programmed helius and the corals where doing well so I just want to get it to run during the right time.
 
what's up Tom, I have been absent lately, did have some time for the Giveaways earlier, busy schedule for me with spending time with my sister and getting ready for a bathroom remodel
Good evening Jimmy, I hope your sister is improving!

Wow, can't match that, but my sister is doing great, until you mention that she does not have her driving privileges back yet.
That's wonderful news Jimmy. Hopefully she will be able to drive again soon. It must be frustrating for her.

My wife almost took away my driving privileges but I had extenuating circumstances, I was passing a small kidney stone at the time.

BTW, I wanted to thank you again for the Jimmy Juice. It is wonderful on eggs.

I think if you sync it, it will run with your current time zone /season. but yeah, the graph is touch oriented so you can widen or move the whole thing to the right times.

She is doing great, she is a tough woman, bit on the angry side at times, friends, wife and i are making sure she gets where she needs to be until she gets her driving privileges back. she is in remission, but the cancer is not aggressive, it may pop up again. it has stayed local to her hip bone area
 
Eating tofu would make me want to turn into a zombie...
that's what happens. it's tofu brain falls out then starts eating tofu trying to fill it back in.

 
Eating tofu would make me want to turn into a zombie...
But, but I've eaten plenty of tofu through the years. A I zombie? that's a pretty eggistential question...

TOFU is just bean curd, its great to add to soups and stews, it absorbs the flavors its in, since coffee drinkers seem to like beans....lol. tofu should be on your list. well except stinky tofu, yeah, its a real thing

I have had it in soup and it was actually good but I would not want to give up meat to eat it full time.
 
Good night everyone! Going to bed early because we are getting up at 1:00 to head to Georgia.
Good night peanut, sleep tight and I hope you see this!

Ya, it’s often in hot and sour soup. I love hot and sour soup!
 
Devoid of all bugs, dirt , buggies , parasites , and anything that would get me sick 🤧.
Probably not then. I work at a wastewater treatment plant so there's all kinds of bugs, diets parasites, and all kinds of things that would get you sick.
