    Just how much can a person take

    Richie, please take no offense, but your reply made me laugh more than once. More often than not I actually think I have lost my mind. :-[ (It was SO unlike me to be obnoxious to that receptionist, but I couldn't help it...I hope she forgives me) And yes, he does have a face on a face, doesn't...

    Just how much can a person take

    Richie, Thanks so much for the hugs. And I'm so sorry you've experienced something so similar. How did you pull through without losing your mind? I promised an update. Well, I was expecting to hear from my vet yesterday about the pathology results. By noon I had made the first call. At 3PM...

    I am definitely interested in the class, Phyl. I have an Olympus FE-120, and will have to look for my owner's manual. If I can't find it, I just download one. --- Wendy

    What a difference a background can make

    Oh yes they are indeed. ;D I've drooled over your thread/tank more times than I care to admit. I'll run it by Alex to see what he thinks. I just have to make sure I'll have the defibrillator handy. --- Wendy

    What a difference a background can make

    Thanks so much ,Billy. :) I know I am most definitely out of room. Don't want to start cramping things, and everything's growing nicely for me. Of course, far in the back of my head I am already dreaming/fantasizing about a bigger tank. --- Wendy

    What a difference a background can make

    Thanks Deb. Yeah, I clean the back glass once a week when I do my water change. I just scrape wherever I can reach without knocking anything over. There are a few spots where there's quite some coralline algae that I can't get, but that's all right. --- Wendy

    What a difference a background can make

    I was looking through the WTS thread here, and suddenly felt inspired by a picture - or should I say I felt "daring"? Anyway, I decided to remove the background to see whether I like it. I LOVE IT! Here are a couple of pictures. WITH background Without My tank has quite some...

    Make my burger well done please

    Actually, in Germany you eat 'em right out of the fridge - with raw onions on top, and call it a "Mett Sandwich". YUMMY! ;) --- Wendy

    Water changes, what do YOU think?

    I'm the furthest away of offering any "expertise" opinion since I've only been in the hobby for under 8 months, but I am adamant about doing weekly water changes of about 10% and am thrilled with the results. :) --- Wendy

    Difference between regular and recirculating skimmer

    Thanks Phyl. Ok, please don't laugh, but what do you mean by "start looking for the commas?" :-[ --- Wendy

    Difference between regular and recirculating skimmer

    Good morning friends, This is probably a dumb question, but I can't figure out what the difference is between a regular skimmer and a recirculating skimmer. I am currently using the Octopus NW200. If I were to ever upgrade to a larger tank, how big of a tank do you think my skimmer can handle...

    Just how much can a person take

    Thank you all for the heads up and the kind words, and the much-needed hug. I will have to take it a day at a time, and hope and pray the news on Monday won't be too devestating. Subliminal, I'm so sorry to hear about your Rotti girl. We lost our Golden 5 years ago to cancer. He was 12, and...

    Just how much can a person take

    Hi everyone, As most of you know, my mom passed away last week. Even though it wasn't completely unexpected, one can never quite be ready for news like this. On Tuesday I took my older Bernese Mountain Dog (Simon) to the vet because another one of his sebaceous cysts had ruptured. He's been...

    WHAT is wrong with this picture?

    Even I have to admit it looks kind of freakish and intriguing. Hopefully that won't make me look like a sick individual now. --- Wendy

    Rich, nope, it's not moving at all - it's swaying around in the water current though. :-\ --- Wendy

    WHAT is wrong with this picture?

    LOL. I guess so. Should I pull that crab out of there, or will the trumpet actually eat the whole thingy? --- Wendy
