    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Growing up in the fiftees. This should be in the Lounge. I decided to write this because this morning we face timed our Grand Daughter who has just about anything you can imagine and is bored out of her head. Because of Covid they had to leave their apartment in the West Village in...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Some day I need to do some work on my tank. I need to move the entire middle section back a few inches because some of the corals are to close to the glass and my magnet cleaner hits it. I did this once before and I don't look forward to it. I have to wear thick gloves so my fireclowns...

    You can't see me smiling because I have my mask on. :) I love putting this stuff in my tank and always have.

    They won't live half a year in a tropical tank so quarantining is a moot point. I also think quarantining is the worst thing us Geezers invented. But we invented that before we knew any better. Eventually you learn how to keep this stuff healthy naturally. :cool:

    Paulie graciously sent me one of those things. It's codium seaweed attached to Limpet shells. Very cool. This is it in my tank.

    My good friend paulie collected this in Barnicut bay Jersey and sent it to me. (He is a very nice, generous guy) It is some codium seaweed with some limpets attached . At first I thought they were chitons, but they are limpets. Very common here on the east coast of the US and probably all over...

    I never realized condo life was like this and I do miss my house where I can make my own decisions. :cool:

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    We did have a great "driveway" party yesterday after boating. We all brought, or bought food and set up tables and chairs in my driveway. I made the fireworks and most of the drinks and we had a nice turn out. It's not like the old parties because the Virus put a damper on that :( But we...

    Yesterday I threw about 25 small mud snails in my tank. Today,I can't find even one. :cool: I am waiting to go out to dinner and I was watching my tank with the room lights off. (Yes,i am weird) I noticed my new, smaller 6 line wrasse which I have not seen in the week or two since I added him...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    We now live in a condo and,they uncovered the pool yesterday but it has no water in it so swimming is difficult and noisy. The walls of it are also filthy. Apparently there is a leak in the thing someplace and they are repairing that. After they do that and fill it, I would imagine they will...

    This morning at 6:00am I went to a doctors office for an endoscopy. Yes, Sunday morning at 6:00 am. What kind of Doctor works on a Sunday much less at 6:00 in the morning? It was just a routine thing and if you live long enough they send you for all sorts of fun things. I especially enjoy the...

    I love these Janss Pipefish and I have had this one for 5 or 6 years. These guys are very colorful and can eat surprisingly large prey. This one only eats frozen Mysis. He occasionally tries to eat a live worm but always spits it out. I would also. :sick: Most pipefish have tiny mouths where...

    , I forgot if my anemones did that. If I look through my very big, old log book I will probably find it, but I am sure you guys are correct. This anemone split three times and it now probably is almost a quarter of my tank. I would like to get two of them out but that will be difficult as two...

    I don't think I ever saw my anemones do that but I do have a lousy memory so maybe they do. Anyway, my diatom cleared it up
