    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    That little orange pygmy hawkfish comes out "near" the front now. I am not sure why he is getting over his fear of other company as he is not bad looking. My male bluestripe disappears for a week at a time and I always think I lost him, but again, today he came out in the front, smiling and...

    Vets and Hep C

    This is just great. Today my Daughter called me to tell me that she found out that one in five Viet Nam Vets have Hepatitis C. You didn't even have to go to Nam because it was from the air guns that they gave us the shots with. Before going to Nam we had to walk down this narrow hallway with...

    Ever wonder what a 40 year old leg looks like?

    This is a galvanized piece of "Kindorf" which we use in the construction trade for just about everything. It is one of 4 that has been holding up my reef for almost 40 years. I added that leg next to it to hold up the weight because I was afraid to remove it. I did this to two of the legs so far.

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I have been experimenting with this little anemone crab for a couple of months by giving him a live blackworm every day. At first he just looked at me like I was crazy and continued filter feeding. But now he comes out for the worm as soon as he sees the feeder and grabs the worm. He also...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I had my second hand surgery yesterday because I guess the first one was only practice. Now they tell me they have it down to a science. My right hand is bandaged from my knuckles almost to my elbow. It is amazing how many times you need your right hand during the day. Luckily I am used to...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I have probably a dozen hermits and an arrow crab and a few other crabs as well as shrimp. They all have been in there for years and don't even text each other. The pistol shrimp stay in their holes.

    Thanks for sharing. I love those guys and have a mated pair of shrimp with my gobi. I "shoot" them some clam every day which keeps them happy and healthy. My gravel has a lot of rubble in it from being in the tank so many years so they have no problems making tunnels from one end of the 6'...

    Nasty Squirrels

    Last year squirrels got under my solar panels and ate through my roof shingles and the tar paper. They also ate completely through a bunch of the copper cables forcing me to remove some of the panels and re wire most of the system. I repaired the roof and replaced the cables. Then I...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    In a few weeks my boat will be in the water and it will be amphipod hunting season. The early summer is when they are free swimming and possibly breeding but I really don't know. I do know that there are so many of them at that time that all I have to do is put my arm in the water (in a tide...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Just after Thanksgiving I had a hand operation. If you worked construction for 40 years and your joints still work, you didn't work hard enough. One finger (the one I use to point at Supermodels) was becoming stuck in the bent position so I went in to have it fixed. They "fixed" my knee at...
