    That is a Hectors Gobi. I have 5 of them. Very cheap easy fish but your tank needs some growth as they pick on algae and tiny things growing on "mulm" in the tank. I may get a couple more today. I doubt they would live in a newich, clean tank. Oh wait!! You mean that waspfish? The red one...

    My tank after the cleaning is a produce stand of hair algae. I love it as it is sucking all sorts of things out of my tank that is probably left over from all the sponge I killed. :biggrin:

    Two days ago we went to a surprise party 60 miles away and yesterday I had to take my wife to one of her Doctors in the morning and another doctor 60 miles away. This morning I am taking her to her neurologist another 60 miles away and tomorrow she has to go to a physical therapist 25 miles...

    Now that we changed the clocks, my morning walks are a little dark again. That is a school bus near my home on my way back.

    We went to a surprise party last night for 2 of our friends. It was an anniversary and 60th birthday party in a really good restaurant that you normally can't get in. Their kids threw it for them and there were about 130 people there which is the biggest surprise party I have ever been to for...

    I just came back from my eye plastic surgeon who removed a tiny skin cancer thing from my eyelid. He said it looks fantastic and asked me if I wanted an eye lid lift. I said: Like Really!!!!. Do I look like a guy who would get an eye lift? My eyelids, even the droopy one is a trademark and I...

    My tank after the thorough cleaning is coming along nicely. The rocks that were to covered in sponge I had to bleach and now they are covered in short hair algae which is normal. Many of them still have pieces of dead sponge on them that are really covered in algae as I assume it is a good...

    I agree. This "Windmill" is actually not a real windmill. I think it used t be a root cellar on a farm maybe 120 years ago. Now it's a golf course. An old guy, in his 90s told me he built that windmill part on the thing in the 60s. They use it to take wedding pictures near a catering house...

    From 2018, True Stories. One time my wife and I were in church (about a year ago) we were sitting in the pew and it was a time when it was very quiet. The priest was doing what priests do and whatever he was doing, it was very quiet and of course the church is built out of marble so you can...

    Early this dark, cold, soaking, rainy morning on my walk where I didn't see another Human being I was thinking. (Thats when I do most of my thinking, early in the morning, before the sun comes up when no one is around.) I was thinking about fish and how they all look different while most of us...

    That is the main reason I didn't put this in my living room and also the reason I am married for 50 years. :biggrin:

    Thanks. A massive amount of work keeping the 30 fish alive with all the corals. :rolleyes: I had to have 125 gallons of new water ready to go and heated. I also had to keep about 50 gallons of my existing water to keep the fish and corals in along with more existing water to keep the rock...

    Yesterday my reef reached 52 years old. After the thorough cleaning last week I wasn't sure it was going to make it. :oops: It is looking good now and I didn't scrub clean the back and side glass or completely clean the gravel because I wanted to keep as much bacteria and critters as I could...

    Good Morning. I am really not liking the look of this ASW. I have to clean the glass twice a day but thats due to all the dead stuff I have in my rock after I cleaned it. Much of it I just let sit in the dark and some of it I left out in the cold in sea water. Some I just wire brushed to get all...

    This morning I walked where I haven't gone before. Through the center of the golf course in front of my house. It was 23 degrees.

    That may work, but I think I will just go down to the sea and collect some mud and algae covered rocks. :biggrin: It's 23 degrees now and I don't feel like sloshing through the sea so I may wait a few days. :confused2:
