Agreed, I've been looking forward to reading your stories before work everyday. It's therapeutic. The world needs more men like you good sir

No wasted ink! I have enjoyed all your writings! I just have not read them all yet.

I don't think I read them all either as I may have been in a drunkin stupor when I wrote some of them.

Thank you, Sir. That is a very nice thing to say to a bald headed Geezer.

Happy Mothers Day everyone. Well, you Mothers anyway.

Having an old tank has unique problems. Not healthwise but things grow in tanks and keep growing. Things like bristleworms. They are great scavengers and kind of benign when small. But they keep growing and can probably get a foot long.,

That is the reason I can't keep clams or most crabs any more except hermit crabs. When an invertebrate sheds, the bristleworms can most likely smell it and they attack the helpless animal. Especially arrow crabs which are very susceptible when newly moulted.

Occasionally I trap them but the really large ones can't fit in the trap and if I make a large trap, the fish and hermits will go in.
