Better late than never about time you got to it I started doing a couple little things to the cabinet I sanded the back of one of the doors I think I’m gonna start a build thread I did one for my last tank on the other website so I think I’m gonna do this one for the NJ reefers which is actually a nicer bunch of people but you’re not supposed to say that Plus I like anybody who respects the ocean and salt water without it we would’ve never been here to begin with

I wanted to drag the tank out and start cleaning it. Freaking rain. Can't even make RODI outside :(

I like the rain at the moment because this is my allergy season. My symptoms are coughing, fatigue, tight chest and dryness :oo: Yep, that's my allergy symptoms...no normal sneezing here

Same here. Lol Two Mondays ago when I woke up I was sure I was dying. My whole body hurt, nose running, nasal drip, a little sore throat from the drip. my wife laughed. She asked if it has anything to do with power washing the house over the weekend and the fact I always forget my allergy medicine until i start feeling terrible. A few days of Advil and Allegra and I was feeling better. I’m glad she’s always right.

Cleaning out the fish room today. Will probably be posting a a few things for sale or trade at ridiculous prices.
We should start a Coronacleaning sale/trade thread.

Also did another 10g water change and dosed Flux for the hair/turf, which is returning. Time to bring out the big guns as cleaning, WCs and vibrant were all only semi effective.
Kalk dosing seems to help now that my paramentes are somewhat stable, ph now fluctuates between 7.2 and 7.4 with current dosing schedule.

Haha started a trade thread before seeing this.
 
Worked my last paramedic shift last night dress as a condom. Will wait out the next week to see if I'm ok. Lots of sick people out there...Nursing homes are being devastated. Hiding the numbers by under reporting and calling it "pneumonia"

Stay safe everyone. Treat everything outside your home as if it has death on it. Because it might. It's going to get worse.

Congratulations Mark, now you can hang with the big boys.
 
Sheltered at home, getting to work up to 1/4 of my usual hours from home; rather get paid less than 1/4 of my hours putting in much more time than that trying to figure out the best route for pediatric physical therapy from afar (developmental motor needs, school-based and early intervention; not injury/rehab/sport). Learning lots about technology and online sharing options.

Online school with my kids; I must admit it's rather humbling at times!

Family bonding; lots of Legos, running a mostly empty track with my 12-year old, lots of soccer and basketball, nightly movie nights with the family, hope to get everyone on the bikes this week.

Watching Lego Masters with my kids and Breaking Bad by myself, took in the first episode of Tiger King

Re-scaped my corals with my wife's input; that was cool. Even keeping up with water changes! Tank looking healthy. Watching lots of BRStv. And loving the corals I picked up at the get-together at @motortrendz place....that was awesome. Thanks again for hosting! Anxiously anticipating @Paulie 069 's throw-down when this is all behind us.

Working on low-cost ideas to up the backyard and basement for fun use by older kids, including us; get the Little Tyke fleet out and re-work the space, put the dartboard up, etc. And maybe clean out that dump room upstairs; would've been handy to have it be an office instead of working in the kitchen.

I need a haircut.

Decreased work is a concern, and it's forcing us to re-set some of our priorities, but there's a blessing/gift in that. Truly a time for family and health first. Hoping this ends soon and we all come out having grown from it. So far I think we're on our way to doing just that.

Stay safe everyone. Hope to see you all soon, healthy and with lots of overly grown-out coral colonies to trade.

This begins my third week of working from home... It's brutal - first week was fine second week was meh and now I'm just blah - the only thing keeping me going is remembering how boring my weekends are.

I've done a tremendous amount of tank maintenance and Apex legends playing.

My boss at work is becoming very nagging and assuming more work should be done since we're home with nothing to do - not the case buddy. I work the same hours and that's it. I work in commercial construction as a project manager so there is a LOT of paperwork and meetings that can still happen. I'm shocked NJ has not followed suit with NY and closed jersey construction yet. My job is still opening and booming


For me the worst part of it all is not living with my gf yet who lives 45 minutes away.. I'm the needy type lol and I've not seen her in over a month now other than a quick 5 minute drop off of supplies. I'm losing my mind

Also forgot to mention I was supposed to be on a week long cruise with her this week so it's extra depressing to think of where I should be
