The Miracle Tank

[najer]

I will clean the glass later to get a better side view, it is not a stomatela, my tassle file would have eaten it by now!
It could be algae growing on a shell in pic two?! ;)

I was thinking that after my tank crashed I did not try to recreate the old tank at all. I let the tank tell me what to do. Now, instead of growing the tank I think I want, I am caring for the tank that comes to me naturally.

I did the same thing after my tank crashed. Seemed leathers is what it wanted

The Green Clown Gobies are so darn cute! No offense Mr. Hi-Fin, very handsome.

Hes trying to be Waldo. I miss my ycg.

Tissues at the ready people (minds / gutter / out) to hand to the ginger bird when she shows up, my little rescue, they will hold her until I can get her a home sorted, paid for. :)
I saw her the day after she came to the lfs, she had been in a really small tank and her hlle was bad, she wouldn't eat!
I went in every day for a week and fed her, magic red macro got her eating, she was taking it from my fingers from day 4, I also tried her with my flake which she took, she now eats pretty much anything. :)
The body has recovered well back in on the line, I have no idea how that will end up but the face gives you some idea how bad it was, again it is a waiting game to see how much that recovers.
I reserved her over the phone yesterday, we have history and I fell in love with her, someone was trying to buy her when I went in today! ;)
Excuse the pic, I don't use my phone camera much!

Minneapolis. I'm sorry about any of the hate and violence. ALL LIVES MATTER.

Thank you, I grew up down there!
Have so many friends and family down there!
What happened to that man is disgusting and a travesty!
What's happened since then is also disgusting and a travesty!
It was pretty calm yesterday until the prosecutor came out in public and told the world they don't have enough evidence for criminal charges (that was committed on camera in front of dozens of witnesses). Then **** hit the fan again.
The 3rd precinct was set on fire and evacuated last night.
My heart is broken for the city and the people of Minneapolis.
LOVE YOU ALL!!!

So why is it the appropriate response to this to loot, burn, and destroy the businesses and public services in your own community? How does that advance someone's cause? Sorry but this is just crazy and senseless. Not even sure why they arrested the man about trying to pass a $20 counterfeit bill. Seems like some questions need to be asked first. Now the same thing is being repeated around the country in different cities. This and Covid what a great mix of problems intersecting at the same time.
Be safe out there all and practice safe distancing from all the problems. Glad your friends have a place to hunker down safely with you!

I haven't heard anyone condone what's going on.
And by all means I sure as heck wasn't.
I agree with your sentiment.

I disagree with your premise. it's not the appropriate response. It puts them on the same level as those they are protesting and it undermines their cause.

As for your other questions, yes more has to be asked and answered, however, according to what was made public, they did not arrest him for passing the counterfeit bill. They questioned him as he fit the description. While they had him, they checked for outstanding warrants, which came back negative. The officer who was told this by dispatch, for some reason, told the other officer there were warrants and that is why they arrested him.

Whether or not you agree or disagree with it, a single knee during the national anthem sparked a national debate about how PDs deal with race and put them under the microscope and now body cams are the norm. No one had to throw bricks and set fires.

As I often tell my boys, your emotions are legit, but it is how you deal wit your emotions that count, so do your best to understand what you want to achieve before acting, because many times it's to hurt those who hurt you and that rarely results is a better outcome.

Implied sarcasm. It is just one of those things that make me question people's thinking.

I know. It was a good set up for my soap box though so I used it.

No clown babies (ie fish food) yet. Maybe tonight. The nerites are leaving eggs all over the place

With clowns spawning, the pods exploding, and now the nerites leaving eggs all over the place my tank is turning into a Sodom and Gomorrah tank.

Sounds like a happy tank. :)

We all stand on the shoulders or soap boxes of those who came before us ;)
