    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I didn't see them this morning yet but as of last night, I didn't see them eat anything. They are hanging out together in a cave but do venture around the back of the tank. If they don't eat today, I am afraid they will never eat as pipes need constant food. They may not have fed since they...

    I see the two pipefish in the back and they look fine. Swimming normally and staying in the back. I tried feeding them twice so far today, and they haven't eaten yet. I have a few different sizes of mysis. If I can get some brine shrimp today, I will try offering that just for a start. I...

    On my walk, I did encounter these Alien tracks, probably from one of their research vehicles that comb the beaches of faraway planets looking for any form of life that they can experiment on. They are looking for invertebrates, birds, fish, horseshoe crabs and even maybe a Liberal. :biggrin:

    At 6:30 this morning, after my beach walk I checked out my tank with a flashlight as the light wasn't on yet. I saw all my fish fast asleep in caves and squashed behind rocks in the back. Then I looked at the intake on my powerheads because if there was a dead fish, especially a pipefish...

    They arrived a day late but alive. The temp was 73, so not too cold. The larger one didn't look great and was at the surface with part of his back sticking out of the water like the Loch Ness Monster, but he was breathing. The smaller one looked better. I acclimated them for about an hour due...

    Thats not exactly how these houses are built. They are condos and share the driveways and road. No lawns up around the units. But the pipes were a day late and now, are supposed to arrive today. Most likely dead but here anyway. :speechless:

    On my walk I came across this boat chained to a rock. The boat probably weighs 100lbs and the rock is about 10 tons so I doubt it will be swept out to sea. On my way there, I came across this deer. She allowed me to walk right up to her which has never happened. I thought I was alone on...

    Today I am a little nervous, and I never get nervous unless I see a fish I really want and find out it was quarantined so I can't get it. My 2 Janss Pipefish are supposed to arrive here Thursday and unfortunately, on Thursday my 11-year-old Grand Son is coming for a visit by himself. That...

    Oh, If I noticed that, I wouldn't have just had a cup of coffee. Now i will get a caffein rush. :confused2: Diana, I can't believe you read all those ingredients. :cool:

    So my wife comes home with this "Stress Relief Eucalyptus Body Wash". I assume it is supposed to be some kind of soap. Real soap has been made for thousands of years from fats, lye, and maybe ashes. This stuff has about 200 ingredients, and none of them are fats, lye, or ashes, and you need the...

    My tank is starting to look like it did before my invasive sponge issue. I love the look of gorgonians and they are very cheap. (here anyway) The rock the last gorg came on is loaded with polyps, very nice. The guy had them in a dark tank so I couldn't even see the life on the rock but if I did...

    Fantastic beach walk this morning. I went out a little earlier today because it finally stopped raining and I was all excited and tingly. Unfortunately, I found a dead Osprey or Sea Eagle which are endangered. Last week I found two dead seagulls. I wrote to the EPA a couple of times, but...

    Let's remember that today, Memorial Day is to honor all the Americans that died in battle defending the US and keeping us free.

    This Morning, it is pouring rain. No one was out, not even birds, but Vietnam Veterans don't care about rain, so I went to the beach. (It could never rain here in the US like the Monsoons in a jungle) I normally walk down a lot of steps, then walk west. Since we had a tough winter, much of...

    After placing the flags, the guy in charge took our picture. I wanted the picture to put on here so I asked him how I can get the picture. He said it will be on Facebook. Now, I never go on Facebook, but I used to have a password. Besides that, I have a face and wrote two books so I don't...

    This morning it was raining and I had some time before I went to Calverton national Cemetery to place American Flags on the graves of the Hero's buried there. So at about 6:00 AM I took my normal walk to the beach. I only wanted to walk down the steps to the beach and not actually go on the...
