She turned into one of these.

Thank you, but thats Greta. I know it is hard to tell at that age and with that hat on. She is 5 now but I like that picture. I just completed the biggest water change I ever did in the life of the tank. It was difficult because I am not 20 years old any more and for some reason, water keeps...

Diana, this Manly man also doesn't like to do that any more but in my younger, more manly days it was no problem and I could carry fifty gallons on my back (in my dreams anyway). Merry Christmas.

Marc-C, Lemme answer that as a Dapper kind of guy. If you have one of those Sissy..... I mean quarantined tanks you need to worry about silly things that some not really Manly men don't worry about. Parasites will not be in the seawater now because parasites are Girly things and afraid of the...

I just collected some Atlantic water and I am thawing out. now. I collected 15 gallons because thats all I care to carry and I was getting frostbite. I tested the water for nitrate which is zero and the salinity is a little low but that reading doesn't mean much now because the water is about...

I will Diana. I am mixing up water now and planning a trip to collect. My new home is right on the Sound and although I went out there yesterday, I need another excuse to go again. :D

Unfortunately I think I will have to do another big water change and I just did one not very long ago. I don't know what my nitrates are but they are way up there due to too many fish and I want them spawning. But I am sure I am feeding to much and due to my impending move, I have been...

You can see the bite mark in the middle of him. It healed nicely and his color may return as it is much bluer now then it was yesterday.

My bitten up bluestripe pipefish seems completely healed. He has a scar that goes through his beautiful blue stripe so now his bluestripe looks like Morse Code but I think he feels well and keeps (stupidly) taunting the much larger Janss Pipefish who has absolutely no sense of humor. Fish in...

Diana, I am married to an Italian Girl. I know all about it. :D

He likes you too. :D

How times have changed. I was just reading a Sharper Image Catalog and now they sell so many things that we didn't have when I was a kid. Did you ever look through one of those catalogs? We used to play this game where you got a ball and you threw it at the other person to see if you could...

The Bluestripes are probably my favorite fish, if not my smallest. That injured guy is still kicking. I hatched extra shrimp and he is eating like this is his last meal. I can tell he has some nerve damage but it doesn't look infected. If his insurance covered it, I would get him an MRI...

I just noticed something else. I shouldn't have looked at my tank. One of my bluestripe pipefish is not swimming exactly like he should be. I looked at him closer and someone took a bite out of the middle of him. There isn't much meat on a bluestripe in the first place so I know he needs a...

OK, I found something. A large montipora is bleaching and most of it died. I knew I could come up wit something. :D

OK I will try to post some fish stuff. Nothing happened in my tank today. The pipefish are still spawning, the fireclowns are spawning, the cardinals are spawning, the mandarins are spawning and the copperband is looking at them because he is jealous that he has no one to spawn with. He tried...

I just read back over a couple of pages and noticed I don't have much fish stuff. I apologize for having all of this non fish stuff posted. I am surprised they didn't throw me off of here with all this un fishy stuff. I will try to post some underwater stuff as soon as something hits me. I...

I am today building the lights for my new condo. They are called Wine barrel lights built "obviously" from old wine barrel hoops. I need three of them for over the Island in the kitchen. I saw them on line for about $115.00 which is not bad but I would rather build them. I built the white...

You haven't seen most of them :eek:

I have been dealing with contractors all my life. It is amazing they stay in business. :cool:
