They finally awarded this Hero the Medal of Honor for what he did 55 years ago.
These Cobra Gunships saved me quite a few times and they are awesome, I can't say enough about them. There is no almost place on them for a man to hold on to and I never saw them rescue men like that, but I think...
Natural is always best.
I realize on these forums (all of them) we try to do things for our fish that we feel are doing something better for them than if we left them in the sea...We are not. Natural is always best. As an example, if we bought a time machine and got a Neanderthal from...
She has looked like this to long to be eggs. If she croaks I will check her out but she seems very healthy. Maybe she should call Jenny Craig. :confused2:
Normally when dragonettes look like this, they are eggbound and in a couple of weeks they die. I am not sure whats up with this Lady as she looked like this for a couple of months. Eating normally and looks great, just morbidly obese. Unless she is sneaking out for ice cream sundaes every night...
Yesterday I went to my shoulder surgeon. He cut off a lot of hardware on my sling so now it is just a normal sling. It used to look like one of the steam punk devices I built. He said my shoulder is coming along just fine. I asked him about this big black and blue I have in the middle of my...
I have to go to my shoulder surgeon today and he is near my favorite LFS so I am bringing back my Sea Hare. I have no algae as it disappeared all of a sudden in 2 days. It was from my sponge eradication and lasted a few months. :D
I found this on a bathroom wall that I posted 10 years ago. I changed a few words so Noobs can understand it. (Nothing New) :rolleyes:

Some thoughts on fish health
Keeping fish healthy is a very simple thing, fish want to get and stay healthy even though they are...
A couple of years I built this nitrate reactor just to give me something to do. I never figured the silly thing would work. I rarely even pay attention to it and it is all the way back where I can barely see it.
Being I have this broken shoulder and can't do much I decided to test it.
It...
He still seems Fine but doesn't travel to much. As you know, it is very hard to take their blood pressure because they keep punching holes in the pressure cuff :rolleyes:
Urchin Lifespan
Lifespan/Longevity
The lifespan of D. antillarum is closely related to temperatures and food availability. Populations in warmer climates tend to have a quicker rate of development and shorter lifespan than those in colder climates. (Grzimek, 1972)

I think my long spine urchin may be nearing the end of his life. He is in the front of the tank now and he never goes there in the day time. He lost a couple of spines and I just gave him a piece of clam, his favorite food and he pushed it away. Normally he would make short work of it.
He is...
MadReefer, If I remove this sling, my arm will hit the floor, get dirty and make a big noise. :apologetic: I have to keep it on for a couple more weeks as the WD-40 penetrates the aluminum shoulder until it stops squeeking. :biggrin:
The most important thing to do with a very painful "Plantar...
i am not taking the oxy any more as the tequila alone seems to do the trick. no more capitals because the left arm doesn't move yet unless i add vodka to the tequila. i was up at 1;28 this morning because sleeping with this steel sling on is like sleeping with a cement mixer strapped around my...
My wife also tells me I am to much of something. I am not sure what that something is. :rolleyes:
Right now my wife and our best friend are taking care of me. I want to see how long I can milk this. :p
actually pain kicked in last night which is why i am up posting at 2:00am using one hand while hooked up tp an ice machine in an oxicodone induced stupor :confused2:
So yesterday I had my left shoulder replaced (I may make a lot of typos) I have to wear that sling that keeps my arm a few inches away from my body 24/7 even sleeping with it. I love that hospital and wish I could rent a weekend there.
I have no pain at all and am thinking of hitting it with...
