This long spine urchin has been in my tank for quite a few years and when ever he can get it, he enjoys some clam for dessert.
I sometimes have to help him because when he approaches a piece of clam, he impales it on a spine and being he is all "thumbs" he can't get the thing off so I suck the...
So today I washed and waxed my "all" fixed PT Cruiser and went for a spin. All of a sudden, It starts to overheat. OOOOOOOHHHHH NNNooooooo. I replaced the fan for nothing. It's something else. I have to question my mechanic skills and maybe get a Nerd card or worse, Snowflake card. Usually...
OOOOHHHHhhhh NNNoooooo, My blackworm tank crashed.
I don't remember when I set up my blackworm tank but It doesn't support blackworms any more. It must have a blackworm version of the Flu or chicken pox for worms.
Whenever I put in worms, they croak and turn into Jello.
I am currently...
They will live forever in a tank as they are salt water creatures. But the fish will eat them before that happens. If you put them in a separate tank and feed them yeast, they will grow to adulthood in a couple of weeks. But then you will have to pay for their college
So a few days ago I took 2 other couples and my wife out to dinner on my boat.
On the way to the boat I noticed that the air conditioner started blowing warm air so I looked at the temperature gauge and the car was overheating. Great, just what I want with a car full of people and other people...
Lets talk about Pod eaters. We aquarists call anything small a Pod, but a Pod or copepod is a real animal unlike Pee Wee Herman or Weiner who are other things, but not pods. We also have amphipods which are much larger. If our tanks are healthy and the paired fish are spawning, like they...
These little striped cardinals are spawning. I have 3 of them and it seems 2 of them are female and are pregnant to the joy of the one male.
But cardinals are very easy to spawn and they will spawn even if you lay them down on the asphalt of interstate 80 on a hot summer day and a Mack truck...
I am sure no one uses this stuff any longer, but before I re-cycle it this weekend, I have older photographic equipment such as 2 Sea & Sea underwater "Film" camera's with one flash along with the wide angle lens and other accessories in a water proof case. I also have a Sony, Videocam Video 8...
If this goes as planned, (not likely) After I empty out my existing tank I will scrape off all the mulm growing on the sides and back to add to my new tank and under my UG filter. I can't wait to see what is growing under there and I will also be bringing whatever that stuff is. I will try to...
I am all excited because I found a LFS not far from where I am moving and they have live blackworms. That is great news because I don't think I would want to keep my tank with out the worms. Now I know I can bring my worm tank out there. :D
I don't think I used it in 15 years. It's blue, but looks black here.
It was used maybe 5 times, great condition.
I am 5'7" and not real skinny. I think I was 180 lbs when this picture was taken.
I am on Long Island exit 34 on the LIE
Now that I am moving soon, I need to sell all these lamps so I put some of them on Etsy. I will list the rest of them as soon as I get time as it is a little of a pain to list them there as you need to weigh them, fill out a big form and describe the thing. I do want to keep 2 of the fish...
I priced a 125 gallon tank but I think I will build the new stand. I don't like those Girly Man iron stands they sell to people who don't know any better. I also want to build a base rock that will span the 6' width of the tank and keep my reef structure off the gravel. Hopefully it will...
I was a GM Mechanic in the 60s and I am moving. I have a timing light, dwell meter, compression gauge and a flexible 18" tool for adjusting the cam angle on old GM cars as well as about an 18" angle screwdriver to adjust the idle and carb adjustment. Maybe a few other odds and ends
I just gave away a 30' extension ladder for the move that I think is 95% certain we are doing. Now I have a bunch of tools and other things to unload as I can't bring almost any of this to the new condo. If anyone needs older car tools like timing lights, dwell meters, compression gages, ring...
