Sorry, dirty glass don't care?
What sponge did you use? How big? When I tried mine, it just floated. Couldn't get any action.

I rubberbanded it to the rock. I cut one of the grout sponges in half and cut a hole in each half. Put a 2" in one and a 1.5" in the other. RFA is 1.5", 2 Jokers are 2". RFA hasn't moved in a day and a half, Joker BTA climbed in half an hour after installing.

I have a RFA that climbed under a rock like a year ago. It has stayed there ever since. It is slowly bleaching away but wont move to save itself. :face-with-rolling-eyes:

Good mornin! Gonna be 92 today. Send help lol.
This is the first day we haven't either had hot thunderstorms with 100% humidity OR a heat advisory. High is supposed to be only 93° and we're currently sitting at *only* 97% humidity :face-with-tears-of-joy:

We have had heat indexes over 100 for the past 4 weeks with maybe 1 or 2 exceptions, and no rain despite relatively high humidity. Hopefully we'll get some storms this weekend.

My fish seem happy with this stuff outside lol. We had some rain the other night and I had to pull some water from the tank so they wouldn’t drown.

Yesterday mom said the index was about 110? Idk I didn’t look lol. That seems excessive though.
