Thanks Frank. I typed Loveland and was auto-corrected to Lakeland. I don’t know about anyone else but I have a load of auto-corrects on this site everyday. It happens mostly when I’m on the iPad.

Well this guy opened up today and got nice and fat for feeding looking for some ideas on a meatier mix for him and the acan they love pellets but the tank doesnt lol....right now using benepets and mysis for this guy i feel as if it needs some more chunkier cuts in there as well as the acan duncans and a few others taking all ideas.

Well i guess an update is due my amazing wife got me an amazing gift for my bday and a trachy has hit the tank. I had to wait to bring him home due to some salinity issues. (My own fault did not calibrate the refractometer and salinity was up towards 1.029 1.030). Started lowering slowly the last several days and got it in line. Went and got the trachy this morning got him in and got him settled. I love this thing. My wife has some amazing taste and i must admit she picked a winner. Was able to get the new light rail system in and drilled ready for the lights to come in tomorrow and should get my new to me ice cap gyres in on tuesday to replace my constant streams. I am excited to get all these things installed and going. Its going to be so much easier to dial things in...
