Cthulhu don’t need no police. You always obey Cthulhu. Always. He wants to vacation in your tank, you make room. If he wants 9 tangs to come hang out while he’s there, you go shopping.

I, for one, welcome our tentacled overlords.

I've heard they're benevolent almost 1% of the time! So.... there's a chance!

Heading up to Wally world for coffee creamer and over to Petco to pick up another aqueon pro heater for the tank. Had one over the summer that after 5 years finally stopped working. Time to replace it.

It's gotten very cold here. Tonight's temp in the mid twenties with a wind chill lower than that. We aren't going out tonight with the kids! Staying inside!

Those pvc heater holders are awesome. Love it

I love your DIY heater "rack"

Great advice on multiple smaller wattage heaters vs one big one risking cooking your tank if not on a standalone thermostat.


Fins up!

I usually sanitize the washer before I clean my socks and my husband is like “ what the heck, isn’t that backwards!”

Thinking the same, but hey........ It's all good!


I've said my sump has become a "scary" place, a "haunted house" of such.... Well in reality it's doing its own thing.

Cryptic zone, sponges are "creeping" and taking over rock, pest palythoas....anything in their way!
