You have the front porch security camera playing on the big screen tv while waiting for the latest gear to be delivered and pass the time cruising R2R which is exactly what I'm doing right now. OMG, 2:00pm and I haven't eaten breakfast yet! o_O Oh wait, they're here... gotta go.

Reading R2R at way to late on weekdays when I should be asleep so I can work hard the next day, my line of work is not the easiest and requires sleep. This hobby has taken that from me and I have zero qualms about it.

I wake up an hour early to observe my tank and clean out my skimmer cup, maybe clean the glass. If I'm working close to home I'll come home on lunch and feed everything. When I get home I'm on R2R and sitting in view of my tank in my living room.

Your biggest planning for vacation isn't where you're going or what you're gonna do when you get there, but how you're going to take care of the tank while you're gone.

Wrong person. Divorced over 10 years and GF ( traded her for coral) . . . . well GF. . . . . let her go as she was spending my bill money on garbage and the drinking thing. I'll leave it at that
