These razor shrimpfish I added are extreamly cool but I doubt they will live long. They eat very well but only live new born brine shrimp and for the last two months there has been a problem with brine shrimp eggs. They are very hard to find and the ones I have have a very low hatch rate so I...

Shrimpfish

I have a leather coral that is so old I can't even imagine when I got it. It is not looking to good and is kind of leaning over. I am not concerned about this because this is normal coral wars and they come in cycles. Something in the tank is exuding a substance that the leather coral does...

We have friends there with a boat so we had plenty to do. I am not sure what else there is to do but eat. All the restaurants are on the water so we had a great time.

We came home from Key largo 2 weeks ago and I couldn't find my male blue striped pipefish. They usually don't survive when I go away as I need to feed them every day. Even though I made an automatic brine shrimp hatchery and feeder. I started to doubt my feeder design and figure it really...

Today was another interesting day. Don't you just love these days? 5:00 this morning my 2 1/2 year old Grand Daughter crawls into our bed. We are watching her for a couple of days. I look out the window and there is 6" of snow. Not bad considering they predicted an inch so it was right on...

Me and my dive partner are trying to decide on some new dive gear.

He you didn't read my reply. I like that coupling and it will be there long after I croak. I may even put a tang in a 20 gallon tank. Dance And it's not from Home Depot

My house still has lead bends. 3 of them. The house was built in 1959. I replaced most of the plumbing and wiring except this pipe. The 4" stacks and mains are still there. The new bathrooms I used PVC. To get the 2" galvanized pipe out of the 4" stack, I had to slice it in two places and...

So today was like any other day. Snow outside, warm inside. I go to make myself some oatmeal in the microwave, push the button and nothing happens. OK great, I need to see what is wrong with the 7 year old microwave. So I take the thing apart and after a while with the schematics, I find the...

Just got in from Key Largo early this morning. Our Closest friends bought a home there on the water so we spent much of the time on their boat. I love mangrove islands and they are one of my favorite dive and snorkel spots. I am always surprised at the lack of life in the sand in the tropics...

There is actually a whole chapter in my book about that. I also know it is on here someplace but I can' find it. It is a little bit of a process to make it look great and I don't want to write it again as I just wrote that chapter last night

I got to admit (and brag a little) my tank has been around a long time but I think it looks better than it ever has. I really have to many fish and corals but I really like the way everything is and for the first time in, I can't remember. I don't want to stick my hand in there and change...

Don't be a Sissy, soldering a float full of gas would just be a gas, pardon the pun. Of course you would have to drill a hole in it to empty out the gas as I have done a couple of times. It is an easy repair but if you can easily get a new float, then by all means buy it. But if you needed...

If the float sunk, it probably wouldn't run as it would flood, not to mention gas all over your floor. But if it is copper, you can solder it.

You mean the float sunk? That stinks. It is copper and probably easy to fix, but if you have time you can probably just order another one. I have to shut off the gas valve on mine or the gas will all leak out. I need a good day to take the carb out and clean the needle valve.
