Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?

I’m pretty sure he Randy Johnson’d her… just like that poor bird he nuked with a 100+ mph fastball
I can never see that video enough times 🤣
I mean what are the chances, on an Algebraic level, for that bird to be at that exact plot point out of all the places on Earth.




It just tells you that bird wasn't living right!
 
My friend, I know you crack jokes. I just want you to know I respect your motivation and courage. You are a rock star in my eyes Kev. I mean it
I've told him directly how much I admire and respect his spirit and positivity.

I really hope he doesn't start thinking I like him. 🤔
 
I should probably elaborate. The Glen Livet is after the pic with the beer in my hand. It’s like working out, you need to warm up first, this time it’s my liver.
Beer BEFORE liquor?! Brother, you are a gangster!
 
Well… those that missed the Rock Inappropriate Hour will have to tune in tomorrow evening. The Mrs and I have some negative space to fill, if you know what I mean.
If you don’t hear from me in the morning, dial 911 and just say it’s too late.
Good night Rock 🤣 🤣
 
Amazon brother. I mix that with reef roids, aminos and fermented fish sauce
Like Asian style food grade fish sauce? I might nibble on that myself. 🤔

Na, that’s never happened before!
 
Good stuff!!
My fridge makes these round ice “cubes”, their actually balls. It just sounds weird saying ice balls. Reminds me of ice fishing

you're late!
I've been chasing you guys since 8 o'clock this morning. It's like being behind a car that is continuously traveling 1mph faster than you, no matter how hard you try to catch it!

It's by Two Little Fishes almost any LFS or online retailer.
That's great info Tom. Isn't that Julian Sprung's company? I'm thinking of using their live sand and refugium mud. That gives me more reason to bundle.

Does each one have a grain of sand in the middle?

Yes it is. He knows his stuff. I have some refugite in my refugium and use gonipwer (when I remember), go back and forth between Acropower and Fuel for aminos, and have some of his Stax quarried rock. I trust what he sells.
