Pft, looks don’t scare me. Now snakes are a different story ;Woot ;Woot

I checked on the same thing..maybe meet half way. Any others too far from me closer to you? ;)
@Fin is the next closest to me, and he is 6 hours to the west of me...that, and I'm not sure if he is ready for anything yet due to the hurricanes...speaking of which...we have another one headed for us this week, landfall likely on Wednesday as Cat 1 or possibly strong tropical storm ;Meh

Working on it..2nd day without back brace:)

Unfortunately, I can't do much with the tank. The algae (bubble & hair), and vermetids are getting out of control. The sump/skimmer/pump is a MESS. I put off any maintenance down there, thinking I would do it when we took the old tank down. My LFS has the new stand, plumbing for the tank, and the manifold, but hasn't had time to do anything with it. I'm frustrated that it's taking so long, but considering I haven't figured out what to do with the corals, it may be a blessing in disguise. Well, except for the lack of tank maintenance :p;Wideyed;Woot

Well, still not much to report. Unfortunately, the LFS is short-staffed, and it will take two of them to tear down the existing tank and set up the new one. I went by yesterday. The stand is still in the box and no manifold. I envy those of you that can build a manifold. It would be one less thing for them to do. Anyway, I did start working on a new scape...

Had to make a last minute run to the grocery store. Luckily, I realized I was out of coffee BEFORE tomorrow morning. I grab my brand, and something odd catches my eye...
