Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
A lot of immature younger people think that. It’s kinda funny to me that an actual historical thing is being used that way.
Exactly. Most of the infrastructure we enjoy today, and any long term success in this country belongs to the baby boomer generation and every generation of service members. The subsequent generations have not taken up that slack.
 
My pup likes asparagus. The tips.

Mine do also. 😔
When I put the Sebae in my clowns almost jumped into it. Though right now the female has taken control and refuses to let the male hang out there. Hopefully that’ll change eventually .

I hope that works Steve. I've been seeing sebae at my LFS. I can definitely see why you chose one.
 
What we have here is ground up cow meat shaped into patties with pickles, onion and natures candy. Your eyes aren’t deceiving you, those are hand cut home made tater chips.
