Yay! My county opens on Monday! Flight school is starting me on Tuesday. Have to skip a class to make my flight but that class I have a 97 in and there are only 2 students bc it’s a senior class I took early. I should be flying solo in less then a month!

You will enjoy it. Have you done night flying yet ?
Its a whole different world and suddenly you depend on instruments as horizon sort of vanishes. Got my PP in 1977 and A& P in 1980

I used to do this eons ago and yes they will tear it up, but it is said to have little to no nutritional value to fish. I am not even sure it actually digested at all. My huge Naso in my 200 would poop it out looking the same way it went in. :p

I had some fun with some scrap acrylic this morning. How can you not love playing with fire and the mini circular saw?


Made a little stand for the TDS meter on the portable RODI

A few years ago I made this overflow box, but while trying to adjust it, I broke the bracket. There was just enough to barely hold it in place so I left it as is, .....

Until today.

I cut off the broken piece, and glued a new bracket on the remnant.

And while I was at it, a few more scrap pieces as spacers to straighten it out

So no good deed goes unpunished. When went to shut off the valve, which was really not necessary, once the siphon broke, it was stuck, and of course thinking all it needed was a good old fashioned college try, I beared down and snap. Apparently the working business of the pvc valve are two thin stems. So next project, replace the shut off valve - in like 2 years given my past history attending to non-urgent projects.

I have not done any night flying. I have 1 hour with a cfi 2 with my buddy and then probably 15 or so hours in an a320 simulator I did most of those in the night mode. My dads an instructor and Aircraft program designee so he does a lot of training for the guys. It’s awesome. I’ll have my PPL in a month but we have to push it back till my 17th bday at the end of July. I’ll start my instrument in the next few months

A320 ??/ That's an airliner - wow

I used to make the engine cowl doors on those when it was the early Trent engine, all composites, I think it was enough years ago to be off the call list if there was an accident.

What would suggest as an alternative.

Somebody said regular Romaine lettuce

Yep. I actually have a job lined up this summer as a simulator technician for some of the sims at FLL. My best friends dad owns and runs the company that owns them and my dad is the head of training there. It should be a great opportunity!

I hit another benchmark today. The first water change since dealing with the dinos2. So far so good with the focus on building up the microfuana; live phyto, pods and bacteria and a big clean up crew.

I have 9 zoa frags what do you think if I used the left rock with the carpet nem for a zoa garden?

Also,
Right now I also have a red cap monti , a frozen gonipora, a JF Sector 001 Favites and a green birdnest. The kenya tree is, well, you can see where it is (no plug, the plug fell off so I dropped it in a hole in that rock and its liked it there). There is a GSP rock in the front right.

I'd like to add a frogspawn and a duncun as wells as some easy sps sticks to go with the birds nest.

How would you plan out the coral placement?

Would you put the red cap midway on the right? Would you add purple and green cap montis with it?

It's a 29gal tank btw.

Tangs are omnivores. I feed my two a combination of NLS pellets, PE mysis, mysis, enriched frozen brine, SF Bay Marine Cuisine, Emerald Entree and nori. I would feed LRS if I could get it here at a LFS, but you need to have a LFS. The romaine lettuce thing is from the 70's & 80's. That is what we used to feed them back then. I am not a marine nutritionist though. Just an old codger. :-)
