    Good Morning Diana. Always nice to hear from you. :) This doesn't happen to people who have jobs where they get tired tapping the "passcode" into their phone all day or look for innovative ways to eliminate SPAM from their inboxes. ;)

    I have been having upper back issues (because my life was full of Manly work where you actually have to lift and hold heavy things over your head for many hours, resisting gravity while you wait for an apprentice to get the screw started) :rolleyes: Anyway, my X rays and MRIs indicate that if I...

    He actually wasn't from Hawaii. I forgot where he came from but not Hawaii. Definitely in the South Pacific.

    I just picked up this cool fan tail filefish. It is kind of rare and I think the guy made a big mistake on the price because it was fairly cheap. The owner gave me the price so i didn't say anything. :)

    My tank is doing very well, all fish are really healthy, some spawning including mandarins, fireclowns and ruby red dragonettes. The only thing I don't like about my tank is due to the mistake I did a few years ago by adding a photosynthetic sponge that is taking over the tank. It is really...

    Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days." The clerk responded...

    I took the picture in the container because I am quite sure I will never see them again. :rolleyes:

    I picked up 3 fish today. The little red cardinals are kind of rare and I have never seen them. Little Hawk settled right in

    This fireclown is getting better with age, Unlike me. Here he is today at about 30 years old. This is what he looked like a few years ago. Notice the "bags" under his eye. He (or She) doesn't have that any more.

    That 50 gallons of water I collected yesterday is now crystal clear and I am removing the silicates with "Phosguard". I had to order more of the stuff because I ran out and it isn't very expensive. I only use it on new NSW so it lasts me over a year. If all the silicates are out by tomorrow I...

    I tested for it when this sponge got out of hand. I remove it in my make up water also now as my tap water is also high.

    Phosguard removes it. I put it in a DIY HOB filter and run the water through it until it tests zero. Silicate is not normally a problem but I am trying to eliminate sponge and the silicate will make it grow faster. Same thing with diatoms. I have to clean my glass every day. New York water...

    I already had a bottle of Grand Marnier on it. :) I just collected 50 gallons of water in the sea. It is raining and rough today so the water is full of chopped up seaweed, mud and small pieces of Columbus underwear. I already had to clean the diatom filter 4 times and I am not done. This...

    Lets Remember. Today is 9/11 when the United States was attacked and 2,996 people were murdered. Almost exactly at this time.

    Before my sunrise walk this morning I put those two tadpoles in a bag and when I passed their pond I returned them to the water to see their friends. Now they can grow up in peace until that pond starts to dry up and they find themselves on the street under a 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser driven by...
