A couple of hours with a 5 minute Bristleworm trap. I have nothing against bristleworms unless they start to get to big and numerous. These guys would come out in the daytime and make fun of me so I threw some clam in this thing made from junk I had laying on my workbench. I would have caught...

I just cleaned my pumps and venturi valve in my skimmer. It's amazing the amount of stuff that grows on things in a salt tank. Everything is clogged with those hard tube worms, brittle stars and bristleworms, especially the intakes for the powerheads and I really hate those Korilia type pumps...

WE went to dinner tonight at a place that gives Veterans half price dinners. It was really nice and just as our check came this little girl about 9 years old comes to our table and hands me this card she just made that said: Thank you so much for keeping us safe, Happy Veterans Day. I cried.

Thanks, my uniform still fits like a glove. o_O

Happy Veterans Day and welcome home. I just came back from I Hop and got my free breakfast. Later we are going out with other Veterans for a free dinner. Remember, if it were not for Veterans, we would not have any other holidays. Just something to think about. :)

I looked at the tank this morning before the lights came on and that Possum wrasse is "running" around looking for something to eat. He wouldn't eat his dinner last night so he won't be able to eat until tonight. I don't cater to slouchers. He has to live with my rules, ,I don't have to live...

I got back form the surgeon just now and it seems he wants to tear out my new titanium knee and try it again. There is a problem with the plastic part that the titanium rubs against and it is not making the tendons happy so they go into spasm. I am scheduled for the surgery in February but I am...

My wife and I were just talking about going back to California for more stem cell treatments (for her MS) but it is quite costly and the slight benefits only lasted for about 6 months. We are really hoping and preying that something better comes along. I posted this the last time we went in...

This morning my wife and I went to the Supermarket. We didn't see any Supermodels but as she was picking through eggplants, tomatoes and whatever I got bored and went over to the coffee machine where they also have a few tables. There were three nice looking Ladies there and they were laughing...

I got up at 5:00 today and baked some really nice looking apple, nut muffins. I get bored in the morning waiting for the world to get up so I have to do something and my fish don't want to be bothered. I will invite my neighbors (and best friends) over for breakfast because they are snow birds...

I had to bite the bullet and order a new culture of white worms. And I really hate biting bullets. My old culture is just to old and the flies and Godzilla larvae over took the thing and are eating all the worm food. If I had a small lizard I could easily keep him fed with these flies but...

My tank is doing really well, even my wife came and said that and she didn't even know we had a fish tank. I have life all over the place as well as some cyano which I think looks kind of nice. All the corals are trying to reach the ceiling and the fish can't smile any broader. I think my young...

A few weeks ago my wife gives me this stuff you are supposed to spray in the shower to disinfect the walls and glass doors. Yesterday I decided to use it. after I took a shower. It is strong stuff and you can't stay in there as it smells like nerve gas. Anyway, after I used it I accidentally...

A member of a forum asked me about Majano Wands so I started looking for one as I used to have them all over the place. (I invented the thing and hold the patent) I found an old hand made prototype at the bottom of a box that I didn't un pack yet since I moved here a year and a half ago. I...

For 2 weeks we have been hearing this "wind" noise coming through the ducts in the house and I just assumed it was the wind going over the vent pipe on the roof because we are very near the sea and it is windy here. Yesterday I was downstairs where the tank is with my friend and he was behind my...

It is time to again trim this sponge that I have all over the tank, but instead of sticking my hand in there with a scalpel I will try my Majano Wand which I forgot about. I have a few of them laying around because, Like Duh, I invented the thing and never thought to use it for this. People...

I have been having a problem with my white worm culture, it's hatching flies so last week I flooded their container and I was straining it when my neighbor came over. He asked what I was doing and I said "I am washing my worms". He just shook his head and walked away. :rolleyes:

I got a shipment of 8 books in the mail last night and I am signing one for a special friend who quarantines everything. I am actually almost hand writing the book over again to make sure I didn't leave anything out and I am deleting (using "White Out") any parts that mention anything against...

Amazon tells me that my book will be out in an E Book in a couple of days where it will be available to all parts of the Earth and beyond. They said it is so powerful and mind changing that they are going to replace the Bible in hotel rooms to make room for my book. I told them to leave the...

I just got back from the fish market and bought 2 dozen live crabs. This is the first year I didn't go crabbing so I had to buy them. I finished cleaning them and my fish had a feast. My anemone looks to big for my tank now. ;Wacky Now my wife will make a nice linguine and crabs and I...
