jnarowe · 10/02/2006, 10:18 AM

Yeah, Fish Sticks are a bummer! That's how I lost a Golden Rhomboid Wrasse.

Manogr · 10/02/2006, 11:57 AM

Welcome Back Marc....

melev · 10/02/2006, 02:34 PM

Thank you all.

Now that I'm back, my computer is acting up since last night. I'm not sure what the problem is yet, but I may have to insert the back up processor I have sitting here.

tangalone · 10/02/2006, 02:47 PM

You WOULD have a back-up! LOL! I'm surprised you don't have a parallel back-up house. Or a back-up Evan...*giggle*

That is hilarious! We all need a back up Evan.

Hop · 10/02/2006, 03:35 PM

Oh yeah, make me feel stupid! You have a back up processor, but I don't have an extra keyboard after wiping the letters off mine during a cleaning expedition. I'm typing in the blind here, why you replace a processor

Just Frag it.... put a little glue on it and then kick it...

Snakebyt · 10/02/2006, 04:00 PM

Who says I don't?

Yeah, I don't know what is happening exactly, but I may as well insert the new processor because eventually I'll be upgrading the motherboard anyway and this brand new one will be worthless.

It could be something else, such as a RAM issue, harddrive issue, a virus... I'm not positive yet. Never had this happen in months, and then last night, the system just left me in the dark with a black screen. Nice. It could be heat, but the weather is far less hot than it was weeks ago, and my home is cooler than last month.

I tried to run a virus scan today, and after a while I came in and the computer was off again. So there is a good chance a sneaky beast made it into my system sometime during MACNA or Switzerland, since I was using a thumbdrive in a couple of different computers.

That's what the ninja midgets marc keeps in cages are for, mini backup Evans

<3 Evan

quiksilver · 10/02/2006, 08:25 PM

DOH! double post

jnarowe · 10/02/2006, 08:37 PM

Marc, one of my friends had the same thing happen late last week...must be some kind of malicious software.

Time for a full tank shot for October.

Hop · 10/03/2006, 03:40 PM

Nice pic... Reminds me that my tank is really, really empty

melev · 10/03/2006, 03:57 PM

I'm posting pictures about Switzerland in this thread.

Tank looks sweet Marc...What HOP said!

Feels weird looking at it without Tucker though. I miss him!

NuclearReefs · 10/03/2006, 04:23 PM

Nice shot marc..

Glad to see you still have that wavey sand look on the bottom... thats one of my biggest pet peeves about people who use sand. they think it should be level across the bottom!

Kurt03 · 10/03/2006, 04:59 PM

marc, did you notice any drop in the amount of skimmate after tucker was removed? Just thought of that for some reason.

melev · 10/03/2006, 05:24 PM

No, not really.

bklynmet · 10/03/2006, 06:21 PM

Great tank shot Marc. Any sign of the cyano creeping back after cleaning out the fuge?

melev · 10/03/2006, 07:13 PM

A little is in the refugium, I think. It's hard to tell because of the new red algae that I'm growing in there currently. The mian tank is virtually cyano free, with a couple of tiny spots on two corals out of the entire reef.

kendog261 · 10/03/2006, 07:32 PM

wow your tank looks damn good, almost as good as mine LOL
