    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    The tank is doing very well. I pushed back the reef structure a little so I can clean the glass. I had to break that large montipora in the lower center but it already grew back and you can't even tell where I broke it and it was 2 weeks ago. I added 3 staghorn corals you can see two of them...

    The benefit of feeding clams

    No, I freeze them, sometimes read to them, but freezing is usually all. I am not the type of person that worries about such things as I collect water amphipods, mud, snails, seaweed etc and dump it in my tank By keeping them in the shell It is easier to hold them as I shave off thin pieces...

    The benefit of feeding clams

    I just love clams, I collect them, I feed them to my fish, I eat them either raw, stuffed, fried, or in chowder but the only way I feed them to my fish is fresh. OK I buy them live and freeze them. I feel clams are the second best food we can feed our fish "and" corals for a few reasons...

    I just installed a leak detector

    Today I installed a leak detector in my house with 3 sensors. If any of the sensors detect any water they shut off the house main. I have been meaning to do this for quite a while and just got around to doing it. A few weeks ago my wife and I were going out and as we were leaving she said...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My tank is doing great for some reason. I still have to move the entire structure to the back and break a bunch of corals to do that, but I am going to wait until after the holidays because I get a lot of visitors now and after I do that, the tank will need a little time to recover and re grow...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I was looking for my clingfish this morning before the lights came on and I noticed the blue stripe pipefish spawning. Those and the mandarins spawn just before the lights come on. Bluestripe pipefish are my favorite pipes because they can take care of themselves with no help from me. I am...

    Girl in the Supermarket

    Today I was in the supermarket with my wife. (I started going with her because I thought Supermodels shopped there) Anyway we were at the deli counter and this nice looking girl about 45 comes up to us and starts talking about the stuff she is buying. Then she goes into how sick her husband is...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My simplified system. The large clear thing is an empty bio pellet chamber, There are just brittle stars in there, like a 5 star hotel, it is just there because I wanted to build one but I hate bio pellets as I think they are stupid and I almost crashed my system with them. The smaller acrylic...

    Oh No, my high Tech thermometer stopped working

    I got this very high tech brass thermometer from a boiler in the basement of the Plaza hotel about 20 years ago, but it needs a little calibration to be good as new. It has been on my tank for about that long and I can read it from across the street. I don't have one of those little Sissy...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My boat is away for the winter but I have the two outdrives in my garage so in the spring I have to do yearly maintenance on them like paint them with antifouling paint, replace the zinc's and change the oil. I can't wait to get out and do some collecting in the summer as that is one of my...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Today I picked up this very cool clingfish although I have to admit, I never had much luck keeping them very long. You don't see them very often and I don't really like common fish.
