Turtle's Deep Blue Sea

Awesome fish! But you named him after a seafood snack? :confused:

I had a chicken from Biology class named McNugget.

We used to have chickens. One was named Nugget.

I didn't grow up in the country. My parents were thrilled when I brought a chicken home. Lol

Oh my parents wouldn't have gone for pet chickens either... these were adult decisions, that we decided we didn't really want. If I had someone to take care of them, and roosters would look pretty without crowing at 5am and not stopping for 3 hours... I had cuckoo marans. They had black and white bars and the rooster was a lighter color than the hens. Big guy with a long, pretty tail. Nicest rooster I've been around, wouldn't eat until all the hens were full and never once spurred me.

I feed a friend's chickens and pig when they go on vacation. I may have pepper sprayed the rooster once. :)

Looks good @siggy! I haven't had a good craft beer in a while. Is that a lager or more of an ale? Looks kinda lager colored.

Little behind. Try Bells from the kazoo, Michigan(Kalamazoo). My childhood stomping grounds.

I've NEVER had a craft beer, or a lager. I'm not a beer girl.

Funny you should say that... chickens(actually birds in general) are almost completely immune to the effects of capsaicin. Spraying him in the face wasn't hot, it just scared him.

I knew it wouldn't hurt him, but I really wanted to. He's beautiful, but hateful.

It's ok, I had a black australorp years ago that I knocked out with a shovel... Mike Tysoned him after he spurred me in the shin. Never had another problem out of him until a stray dog killed him.

I was given a pair of angora chickens as a thank you gesture. It was really sweet. I wish I could have kept them.

Macro algae survived the second night! No bleaching detected. I think I might add a few more hours to our light cycle on the H380. I think two more cycles will be good.

Here is our new schedule for the H380. I added another cycle at 0600 and 0700. Tank lights are on from 1100 to 2300.

I pull mine apart so everything gets flow and light.

Not now, I'm going to bed...;Yawn;Dead

Remind me later. ;)

 

[Katrina71]

What? You don't trust us to do it for you?

 

[sfin52]

To bed I jus t got up. I think you have your sleeping schedule a bit backwards mate. ;)
@najer did I use it right.

@najer I got a sweater for Christmas that I ordered from England. I'm showing the love. The whole thing is a Union Jack.

I'd have to agree with you, bo. Working the night shift at the power plant this weekend. 1900-0700 Thursday-Sunday night. It's ok tho, I'm off from the 1st to the 9th, and I get overtime once the clock hits 2018.
