Diana, just drive north and make a right at the Statue of Liberty. :D

I never hired anyone in my life for anything and can't stand the fact that I now have to hire someone to build my elevator shaft in my new home for the handicapped elevator for my wife. I can do this with no problem for about a grand but you have to be licensed and insured for that town. I am...

I just cleaned my algae scrubber and I noticed in my UG filter manifold that one tube was clogged wit tube worms. I made a hook on some wire and lifted some out then I had to chop the rest of them up to restore movement. In doing that a tube that feeds the left UG plate came apart. It is...

I just remembered this story, but I am sure I posted it on here somewhere so if you read it go and watch Oprah give houses to homeless cats with Alzheimer disease. I had a guy on the job who we called Speedy. This was the remodel of the New York City Playboy Club (where I would have worked for...

So I fired my elevator contractor because he was a Jiboni and I don't think he knew an elevator from a lighted refugium. I hired a new one yesterday and will see how that goes. I also called a builder today because I need a licensed carpenter to build a shaft inside the original shaft which is...

I finished under the sink Diana. No problem. :D I built a Sulfur Denitritor for kicks. I won't install it until I move. I just want to experiment to see how they work.

So today I had to go and get a shot in my knee. You need 3 of them so I have two more visits. I had this a few times before and I know it doesn't work. I just like to me a real man so I go for the pain. I went to the Dr's office for the shot and I felt bad because everyone in the office was...

Yes, that I will do. Send me a "full" bottle of Grand Marnier, not the little bottle, the gallon. When it is empty, I will throw it in the sea

I am moving soon so I had to trim This sponge, I have about a pound of the stuff. It is photosynthetic and I think may be the reason my water is so clear. It seems to love high nitrates as mine are off the chart. Must pick it up soon. I won't mail it, ship it, Parcel Post it or put it on my...

Soon I hope. The new people got their mortgage today now I just need my place finished. Hopefully by May 30

I just had to change 5 water cooled LEDs on my tank as the blue lights went out and while I was fixing it, I must have shorted the white LEDs out and had to change some of those. But I have a bunch of old ones around and I wanted to take the thing apart to clean off some corrosion anyway...

Sponges must love nitrates. It is getting hard to keep trimming this almost 18" blue sponge I have on one side of my tank. It started creeping up my bed last night. I thought it was my wife so I hugged it. But it was all cold, slimy and spongy smelling unlike my wife so I just said EEwe and...

I am fairly sure I will be up most of the time after I am dead. :confused:

So yesterday I had to go to a Hand Doctor. For some reason I am susceptible to this trigger finger thing (maybe I got that in Viet Nam) But as you get older, you are susceptible to all sorts of things which is why it is so exciting to wake up. For instance last night I slept in my Grand Kids...

If you notice, especially in the beginning those "flimsy" pieces of food he likes the best is clam. I freeze it and shave off tissue thin pieces of it. He can, and does eat large pieces of it because I cut it so thin. You can't do that with a fresh clam but it is easy with a big, frozen clam...

They are having clams (that I buy live and freeze) Mysis and LRS food. They get this every day but I switch the clams for live worms every other day or so. I don't remember how old the copperband is but he was as big as a nickel or quarter when I got him maybe 5 or 6 years ago. The fireclown...

I could easily go back, I mean if I could. We will see. :)

I finished the stand for my new tank in my new home. It is redwood but I also coated it with Thompsons Waterseal just for fun. The front 4X4 is doubled. The thing is functional, very simple and very strong and stable. Now all I need is the tank. In a few days I should get my Undergravel...

Wow, thanks so much. I was going to swing a dead chicken. I am so glad I asked you. :rolleyes:
