Diana, at my age, getting up is exciting. :biggrin:

It seems my Steam Punk pieces are worth more than I thought. I brought them to a gallery here on the North Fork and she wouldn't let me take them home. They are on display for more than I was expecting. :p

These Fireclowns just won't give up. They just spawned again as they do every week, it looks like they only laid a dozen eggs this time. That large male is I think 28 years old. I devised a thing to collect the eggs but I won't use it as I don't have the time to raise them anyway. Maybe...

I am at the point now where my fish never die from the "normal" things like ich, velvet, worms, dropsy or stupididy. But some things are not normal fish diseases like not all diseases on humans are on the skin like spots, fungus, bacteria etc. I know this fish is not dying of old age as I...

My Copperband has a problem, she sees fine and can probably see better than me, but her depth perception is off by a few millimeters. She sees the food but snaps at it just short and misses. Then she looks at the food in bewilderment because she can't understand why she can't bite it. Now I...

Just finished my "Money Machine" Not really Steam Punk so I am not sure what it is.

Almost finished "electronic Steam Punk"

I used to buy them by the hundreds for a seahorse feeder I invented and patented. "Brine Shrimp Direct" used to sell them for me, then I got tired of making them. :cool:

It is a couple of film containers pushed into an acrylic tube with a funnel thing stuck in one end. The funnel is from a florist. They put carnations in them and fill them with water. They will probably give you some. Just drill the thin part through so the worms can get in. Any container...

You can see it in the video.

A couple of hours with a 5 minute Bristleworm trap. I have nothing against bristleworms unless they start to get to big and numerous. These guys would come out in the daytime and make fun of me so I threw some clam in this thing made from junk I had laying on my workbench. I would have caught...

I just cleaned my pumps and venturi valve in my skimmer. It's amazing the amount of stuff that grows on things in a salt tank. Everything is clogged with those hard tube worms, brittle stars and bristleworms, especially the intakes for the powerheads and I really hate those Korilia type pumps...

WE went to dinner tonight at a place that gives Veterans half price dinners. It was really nice and just as our check came this little girl about 9 years old comes to our table and hands me this card she just made that said: Thank you so much for keeping us safe, Happy Veterans Day. I cried.

Thanks, my uniform still fits like a glove. o_O

Happy Veterans Day and welcome home. I just came back from I Hop and got my free breakfast. Later we are going out with other Veterans for a free dinner. Remember, if it were not for Veterans, we would not have any other holidays. Just something to think about. :)

I looked at the tank this morning before the lights came on and that Possum wrasse is "running" around looking for something to eat. He wouldn't eat his dinner last night so he won't be able to eat until tonight. I don't cater to slouchers. He has to live with my rules, ,I don't have to live...

I got back form the surgeon just now and it seems he wants to tear out my new titanium knee and try it again. There is a problem with the plastic part that the titanium rubs against and it is not making the tendons happy so they go into spasm. I am scheduled for the surgery in February but I am...

My wife and I were just talking about going back to California for more stem cell treatments (for her MS) but it is quite costly and the slight benefits only lasted for about 6 months. We are really hoping and preying that something better comes along. I posted this the last time we went in...

This morning my wife and I went to the Supermarket. We didn't see any Supermodels but as she was picking through eggplants, tomatoes and whatever I got bored and went over to the coffee machine where they also have a few tables. There were three nice looking Ladies there and they were laughing...
