My Son N Law is Jewish, I know all about it

Today I was in the supermarket with my wife. (I started going with her because I thought Supermodels shopped there) Anyway we were at the deli counter and this nice looking girl about 45 comes up to us and starts talking about the stuff she is buying. Then she goes into how sick her husband is...

My simplified system. The large clear thing is an empty bio pellet chamber, There are just brittle stars in there, like a 5 star hotel, it is just there because I wanted to build one but I hate bio pellets as I think they are stupid and I almost crashed my system with them. The smaller acrylic...

Yes, everything I have is high tech. That phone is steam powered

I got this very high tech brass thermometer from a boiler in the basement of the Plaza hotel about 20 years ago, but it needs a little calibration to be good as new. It has been on my tank for about that long and I can read it from across the street. I don't have one of those little Sissy...

My boat is away for the winter but I have the two outdrives in my garage so in the spring I have to do yearly maintenance on them like paint them with antifouling paint, replace the zinc's and change the oil. I can't wait to get out and do some collecting in the summer as that is one of my...

Hey, I am famished, I wish my caretaker would turn on the lights....Oh..Thats better..now for a snack..Oh, that was good. Wow, is that a new frag?..as soon as I grab a snack, I am going to check that out. Way cool frag. Dam, I'm hungry, Oh there's one..... I feel like stretching my dorsal...

Today I picked up this very cool clingfish although I have to admit, I never had much luck keeping them very long. You don't see them very often and I don't really like common fish.

Very nice. I visited there in 1974

Very extremely cool. Thank you for letting me see it

I can't get that link to work but your Dad is a hero

Today December 7th in 1941 Pearl Harbor an American Naval base in Hawaii was attacked. 2403 American sailors and Marines were killed and 18 ships were sunk or badly damaged forcing the US to go into WW2. We should remember these brave Americans so that their sacrifice is never forgotten...

I hope he recovers. I have autopsied many fish with that black spot and it is internal bleeding probably from capture. If it is that, it is always fatal as the blood just becomes infected as it lays beside the organs. But if the spot is just from an exernal injury, it will go away

The general opinion is if something dies, there is something wrong. That is not always the case. Things can die for a few reasons not directly related to anything under our control and there is not always a need to add something or remove something. Fish die of old age as many of mine did...

I generally do know the test numbers which is why I rarely test, but a couple of corals croaked so I figured I would test. When I get a reading of 160 for the nitrate I knew the test kit was toast. And when got a new kit that read 90,I also knew that that was fantasy. I changed the water...

I got them done for the entire year.

I am not a big fan of testing the water every ten minutes as long as everything is living well, but last week I lost a couple of new torch corals so I figured I would test the water. I have a very old nitrate kit probably from Christopher Columbus test kit company so that is what I used. My...

That coil thing is now changed. There is now an inside coil and an outside coil. The entire thing fits inside that blue tube that gets sealed and just makes it look cool. The tank is running well but I surpassed the ability of the bacteria to process nitrates. It will be fine if I could stir...

I have a slight tank problem. Last week I bought a torch coral with a bunch of heads on it which is very cool as I have quite a few of them. Yesterday I noticed one head croaked, that is not supposed to happen so I broke down and tested the water for PO4 and nitrates. The two kits I have are...
