    The first day of my NEW life

    Little update. Today was supposed to be the day I quit, because today is day #8 on the Chantix, however, since I was so anxious to give it up, I stopped Sunday. Today my dose of the Chantix doubled though, and I think I may need some time to get used to the dose. I'm experiencing quite some...

    The first day of my NEW life

    Thank you all again and again. :) Yesterday was a true test because the day started off stressful, and then got progressively worse. There were many times I thought I was going to jump through my skin, but I didn't give in. Heck, I don't have any cigarettes anyway, lol. Last night was worse...

    FF (<-- = for free) Some SPS frags (Howell)

    Hi Eva, Sorry, the pocci is all spoken for. I still have a green slimer and the orange cap (which you now have dibs on :)) We won't be able to make it to the meeting since it's the day before our oldest son goes back to college. I'll write you a PM with my address and phone number. --- Wendy

    Feeding Corals

    What kind of corals are we talking about? LPS, SPS, softies? I try and target feed only my dendros, chalices and acans in hopes of them getting bigger quicker. I feed them Krill bits, mysis, and cyclopeeze (sp.??) twice or three times a week. I feed the dendros during the day to train them to...

    The first day of my NEW life

    Wow - you guys are AWESOME! Thank you so much. It means a lot to me. :) I'm not gonna lie, the first night was rough, but I survived it without losing too much sleep. MikeM, I firmly believe a person has to be mentally ready to quit or it won't happen. A million folks telling you how bad it...

    The first day of my NEW life

    Thanks a million, Dom and Rich. Since I had both my boys naturally (no drugs), I have to say that yes, it was hard - kind of. And it's a great comparison actually, because I got through the birthing pain by telling myself all that pain would result in something "great". It did. I have 2...

    The first day of my NEW life

    Thank you so much, Phyl & Greg, I need all the support I can get. :-[ Yes, Greg, no kidding. Those who never smoked - it IS a drug and I AM having withdrawals. And I refuse to gain weight, actually I probably should have mentioned that I will shed 30 lbs. in addition to quitting the nicotine. I...

    The first day of my NEW life

    Even though this is somewhat of a private matter, I feel it will only help me if I announce it to the world. Today is the first day of my new life because today I stopped smoking! It may not be a big deal to some, but considering that cigarettes were a big part of my life for the past 20 years...

    Here's my Big Office System

    Re: Here's my 120 Bax, I'm so so sorry. That made me cry. I can very much relate because we lost our older Berner in January. :'( Hugs to you and your family. --- Wendy

    Finaly, Dannys 33 cube...

    Impressive and BEAUTIFUL setup, Danny. :) Love the aquascaping and choice of corals. I can't believe I didn't see your thread much earlier. How are you holding up regarding the loss of your mom? I'm asking because I lost mine October 28th, and I still have many "down" days. :( --- Wendy

    My soon to be upgrade

    Wow - this is going to be a super nice setup! I'll be tagging along with anticipation. :) How do you like the Zeovit supplements, and how did you like the Zeo reactor? How long have you been using the Zeo method, and did you notice a big difference? (Sorry about all those questions.... :-[)...

    another DIY kalc reactor

    Greg, is it working? I'm anxious to know so perhaps one day...when you have tons of time on your hands, and if I ask really nicely, and pay you for everything, including labor, perhaps you can make one for me, too? :-\ --- Wendy

    Are actinics necessary for growth?

    To my (little) knowledge Actinics ARE just for show, and have no benefits to the corals. :) --- Wendy

    35x water turnover rate too much?

    If you only have a frogspawn in the tank right now, then why not leave it? Here is how I did it: When I originally set up my 75 I had 2 Koralia #4s, which were too much for tiny frags, so I switched one of them to a #2. All was well. Since everything has grown considerably, I just recently upped...
