    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    First of all my wife is a little better today and is eating, talking, exercizing and most of all telling me what I should do which is great. Now I can go on with my selective hearing like all Men get. But I love it when she gets even a little better. :p I came across my interview on a local...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    You are correct, I just saw that 14" one. My wife already ordered me one for Christmas. I wish I had seen this American one first. At least I got an American router. I also buy American clothes but it is difficult. I wear no sneakers except American made New Balance. But only few styles...

    JRWOHLER Thanks for that site. The problem with it is they don't tell you where those tools are built, which means China. I already discovered I can't get an American made one but I won't buy a Chinese one. If that is all that is available I will look for an old, used American one or at least...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I just finished my water change using fake water. I can't wait until I move because I will be right near the sea and I can just back my car up to the water and pump it into containers. This mixing and lugging around ASW water is getting old as I am. I changed about a third of my tank water or a...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    We went to my Daughters other house in Vermont for Thanksgiving mostly because I really like driving six hours for a turkey. The trip was uneventful anf the holiday was great, not so much for the turkey though. My Son n Law has those ATVs and plenty of acres so we went out on those and got...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I am getting some red algae and some cyano, no problem but with the move I have really been neglecting the tank and overfeeding. I really should change some water. My nitrate reading is way off the chart so I can't tell what it is. All the livestock is very healthy but even a very low...

    Fantastic Whiteworms

    Diana, I wrote this about mandarins. Paul B’s Unique Perspective on Keeping Mandarins They are not a beginner fish or a new or small tank fish. You need to feed them every day or have a very large, mature system, more than a few years old. I got the whiteworms on like, I just Googled White...

    Fantastic Whiteworms

    Mandarins are extremely cool and I have been keeping them for many years. They are a long lived fish if you know their requirements and not a get and forget fish. They do need a little help but the beauty of them make them worthwhile.

    Fantastic Whiteworms

    This Whiteworm culture is a few years old and the original worms were very small and skinny. In time the new generations are much longer and fatter. I don't know why. But these new worms are also much harder to separate from the soil they live in. The original worms used to swarm by the...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I think it's going to be hard to move all the sponges I have growing in my tank as there are more sponges than anything else. The blue one is about 18" across even though I keep trimming it and there are white sponges 8 or 9" long in the caves. I think the sponges are the best filters and I am...

    I think those lobsters taste like snot. I used to SCUBA for about 20 years here in NY and I had a lobster license so we used to dive for lobsters. You are allowed 6 lobsters a day which is 6 too many for me but my wife was in heaven. You ever get bitten by one of those? They can take your...

    Tonight I am making my wife one of these because she hasn't been feeling very good. I myself don't like lobsters because my family had a sea food business and I used to have to eat the lobsters that died in the store so I am sick of them. (you can't sell dead lobsters) My Mother made them...
