Even though my tank uses minimal maintenance I realize It does require "some" maintenance. My powerheads were covered in growth, my algae scrubber looks like the produce section of a supermarket and the glass looks like sheet metal. My skimmer is filthy and overflowing a little. I have been...

I am all excited, soon I will go to my Doctor to get my "glue" removed. You can't get stitches removed any more because they don't use them. Only glue which they stick you together with and put a piece of tape over. The glue and tape is all scurvy and filthy looking from the last 2 weeks. I...

Thank you Diana. :D

I looked close at my tank last night and I still have a load of those flatworms but they are darker. That usually means they are on their way out (or they got a tan) They did not hurt anything and are welcome back. I don't know what is in Flatworm Exit but I doubt it exists in the sea. Almost...

A little Viet Nam memory I learned about this morning. This morning I called my old Captain from Viet Nam who is now a retired General. We stayed friends after the war but he lives in DC. He has a great memory and I barely remember why I started to write this. I remember almost nothing from...

Yes it is. But if he could get in the Union, they will send him to school and train him.

Diana, I have some Gabapentin pills laying around. I am going to try a few of those just for fun. I threw out the OXY pills as they are only good for Christmas Tree fertilizer and don't do anything for pain. :cool: YYYYyyaaaaaaaaaa My elevator is working. It was a long process but it is...

If I choose to lose the walker for a few minutes and use the cane, I pay for it. That titanium in my leg may have come from a Snowflake titanium mine In Girly Man town because it won't let me put my full weight on it yet. But I keep pushing it. They also forgot to put a grease fitting in it...

I made it downstairs to my workshop to see my fish. It wasn't easy and it's the first time I got off the walker since the operation but my fish needed me. I was going to jump down,but I figured it was prudent to use a cane. I had to take extra drugs to get here but I saved some for my fish...

Thanks Diana I think I found out why I am in so much pain. I noticed this morning that my backside is all black and blue. So they must have dropped me off the table, then dragged me over railroad ties by my feet before they got me back on the operating table using a bumper jack from a 196 7...

There was a little complication with my knee surgery that the nurse filmed for me.

I have to say I have a great wife. Last night she threw me a fantastic surprise birthday party at a hard cider mill here. She had about 40 of our closest friends and it was a blast. Well, as blasty as it can get for Geezers. Some of these people we know from high school. I was totally...

The Grand Kids are all excited for Christmas and kind of noisy which is driving me crazy so I decided to take them for a little walk by the sea. In their Pajamas

So I finished my Pre Surgery check up yesterday for the Knee I am getting for my birthday on Christmas and they asked me if I had any loose teeth. I said no. Just now I was brushing my teeth, and my front tooth fell out. You know you are old when parts start falling off of you. :eek: (it was...

Diana, Thats disgusting. Those snails need an internist. :eek:

Diana, for some reason I don't get snail and fish poop building up. I keep my fish constipated so I don't get that problem. :rolleyes:

I see a lot of Noob Threads asking to comment on their aquascape. That is a good idea but the scape is your preference. But I see in most of them too much rock, especially with flat surfaces sitting on the bottom. I know this is the easiest way to stack rock and it probably looks nicer, but...

Who the Heck is Dr Tim? Is he like Dr Korvorkian?

Your other fish have immunity and if you fed them the correct foods your tangs would also get immune. But first they have to contract ich. Quarantining causes fish to lose immunity which is the reason for all the disease forums. Of course 99.973% of the people here would disagree with me, but...
