Happy Fathers Day. Tonight my wife is taking us out on the boat for a dinner at a nice seaside restaurant. :)

I always help out my crab friends and have saved countless horseshoe crabs in this way. I know they have been here for millions of years before Nancy Pelosi was born but I think even if they had thumbs they would still do lousy on standard "true and false" tests. I mean, there is an entire...

#1,867 On my morning beach walk I noticed something at the surf. I thought it was two octopuses wrestling, but I was wrong and we don't get many octopus here on Long Island and if we do, they get along and don't fight. On closer inspection I noticed they were Horse shoe crabs. A common...

I got the cast off and now have a removable one so I don't have to wear it any more. :D I have to fix my boat as we got towed in last week. And I have two engines. :confused:

Unfortunately, I am slowly losing some of my corals. Due to this broken wrist with the full cast on it wyhich I cant get wet, some sponge isgrowing up the bases ofthe corals and I can't get in there to trim the stuff. That is normaly the maintenance I do like weekly. I really need to trim the...

I myself have a model Christie Brinkley skimmer. Tall and thin but mine is only 30 years old now. She is a little older but better looking :)

I just got back from Calverton National Cemetery to visit my Buddy there. I spent a lot of time re planting flags that fell in the storm yesterday.

Thanks. I feel great. Just a cracked bone in my wrist. If you lived as long as me and didn't break most of your bones, you didn't have enough fun. :)

Cant really type .. fiberglass dont bend :confused:

I think new Steam Punk thing is coming out pretty cool. It needs a lot more work and being I am a lousy computer programmer getting the sand timer to invert every minute was the hardest part. But it works perfectly. Of course the thing goes into a glass dome.

I took an amazing walk on the beach this morning. The sunrise wasn't that spectacular as it was foggy like it often is by the sea. But as I walked, I went past a place where no modern man has ever walked. I came upon this Hieroglyphic rock painting. I could tell it was very old probably...

OK, forget fish. Happy Mothers Day Diana. :D

Happy Mothers Day Ladies :)

That reminds me of a story. One morning many years ago We were building a 60 story office building in Manhattan and we were having a big job meeting with all the main people. Owners, foreman's etc. (I was the electrician foreman) The plumbing foreman was this huge man, 6' 4", with a beard...

Today my knee isn't working and I had to many cortizone shots already as it is coming out of my ears. I need another new knee but I can't get one because I can't be laid up that long so I am nursing it as much as I can. Of course I put that heating salve stuff all over it as everyone does even...

I don't have a problem with any of those small gobies. They are just there. :)

I have always had yellow clown gobies and they always spawn. A little to much because they lay their eggs on acropora SPS and kill it. I lost most of my acropora from them spawning. They spawn about every 10 days. You can see her eggs over her here.

Hi DIYguy, my Watchmans are also spawning. Here they are with their eggs. I have always had a pair of Watchmans and they always spawned. They live about 10 years and in my tank anyway also live with a spawning pair of pistol shrimp. I can tell the differences in shrimp but the Watchmans...

Hi DIYguy. I do have a pair of them but you can't tell which is which. At least I can't. As you probably know they kind of graze all day on the mulm and algae in the back of the tank. Mine also eat live whiteworms. They paired up on their own with no help from me. They hide out in the back...
