Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
That's nothing I'm at 6.79 hr per week et.
Really? Show a pic of your paystub. Seriously. I am calling you out on this. I've been in the medical field for over 25 years and have NEVER heard of that. The VA has the best benefits and perks out of any "hospital" or clinic and they are one of the top for giving annual leave and sick leave hours
 
My mg may be mow occasionally. One big correction in July. Pulled 2000ml in a single month. Don't know why.
Inaccurate test. You probably have elevated mag now
 
Kevin if you’re going to have extra marital affairs , don’t tell me about it . Lol!! 😂
CB, I don’t have the energy or mental capacity to have more than one woman in my life. I would never do that to myself!
 
Good morning Smorgasbord family! Made it to Georgia and to my tree stand. Almost took out a small buck on my way here with my car this morning on my way here. Slammed on my brakes and managed to stop within about a foot of him. The lights must have blinded him because he just stood on the road looking at us. Lol
Good morning peanut, is that when you grabbed your gun and shot him?
horses run free GIF
 
This was at a wedding banquet? Well.... Those are interesting food choices to have there. Now I'm curious about what other food options they had there.
Good morning Bailey!
 
I think for the pickled you invited Kevin !
That was 34 years ago. I’m pretty sure I didn’t know Kev back then (unfortunately)
