Breakfast with the fish this morning before the lights come on.

Thinking I may need to get a reef cam. I’m sitting here watching the tank and see the Pakistan Butterfly trying to go after the BTA. But of course the clowns won’t allow that. Just as I get up to go video it the fish rush to the front of glass….food, food,food. Sigh, they only associate me with food.

Ohh, I don't know, Amanda. I think the video was fine!
Oh, you’re too kind. Content maybe but quality not so much. Cloudy and glare and reflection from the door. Which by the way I think I have a hanging solution for now. A track system. Doesn’t stick out too far from the wall so less light coming in and will fit the 2 1/4” space available to attach it and in looks nice.

Well, this day is not going how I thought it would. Spent the last 2 1/2 hours in the ER. Was watching tv after lunch and all of a sudden I felt cold and my left little finger and hand went numb and I saw a big dark red mark appear. I did not hit or bump it on anything. I was just sitting in my recliner. Doctor and nurse kept asking if I’m sure I did hit it on something? No, you can squeeze, poke, pride it and it doesn’t hurt at all. Took X-rays and found nothing. Asked all kinds of questions. And ruled out things. Not an allergic reaction, not a blood clot. Doctor then said, and I quote” honestly I have never seen anything like this and I don’t know what it is. You are my mystery patient for the week “ and then gave me a high 5. Drew a circle around it and said to monitor it, if it grows, then back to ER. And follow up with my doctor.

The swelling has gone down and not as dark red as it was. It’s a weird mystery. He wrote it down as a hematoma and cellulitis. But then said it’s not an infection so not really a cellulitis either.
Picture of it now

I sure hope that doesn't get worse. That is weird. No bite mark or puncture...

Nothing, no broken skin or scratches. My husband thought it might be an allergic reaction to something so I gave on a Zyrtec right after it first happened and now it is much better so don’t know if that had anything to do with it even though Dr said it was not an allergic reaction. It’s a weird mystery for sure.

The lack of hives is why the doctor says it's not. But, people die from mold spores because doctors can't even figure out there was an allergic reaction involved.

The fact the zyrtec did something... Says otherwise. I bet your husbands right.

It’s not bruised either or it wouldn’t be 50% gone now. I did do a nitrate and phosphate test with Hanna checkers about 30-46 minutes before. My hand was in the tank for less than a minute to fill the vials So, I don’t know.

Still don’t have my canopy on. My husband is home this weekend so maybe if my neighbor is available we can get it done! It’s a lot heavier than I thought it would be.
Sounds like an opportunity for a canopy party!
