Nanogurl, don't be offended. It was all in good humor
You give too much good advice not to visit the "club house".

So what do you think about getting a jawfish or three (if they're yellow heads) Tswifty?

Yesterday's tank tour was a blast, and I needed to just get those images up and online so no-one would pester me. Plus I added pictures to my own thread, and pictures from our Next Wave conference location.

I had to reboot once. Guess my PC didn't like all the hard work either.

I remember someone in the macroaglae forum describing it.
Yeah once I move the other Zoa frags out of there, I'll take care of it... I also noticed some small patches of bryopsis trying to make a comeback in the QT tank when I did a water change the other day

Yeah it was a bummer, but I ended up landing a good job, so it all had a way of working itself out. Plus I play in a glorified rec league out here, and actually enjoy the game so much more now that all the "pressure" is off me.

My father played from 1978-1987, and pitched for the Oakland A's and St. Louis Cardinals.

was there something offensive in the post or in the book that might have ticked her off
I never read the book but I watch the program with my grandkids all the time. The program is really family and kids values orientated so I can't see the book being any different.

I really feel bad about offending someone esp when it wasn't intentional

That's one of the nice things about my townshouse... All the maintenance and groundskeeping is taken care of

Although oddly enough I do miss working in the yard, and mowing the grass sometimes... wait did I just say that???

I used to do the same... minus the coffee... Not a big coffee fan

Although I do enjoy the occaisional energy drink though. Not red bull though... ever since college, everytime I drink it I taste jager now-a-days.

The routine used to be: watch Family Guy, dose the tank, sit back and browse RC, then hit the sack.

It's rapidly became a much more frequent occurrence since then though

Can you keep jawfish in groups? I didn't know that, or well I hadn't considered it either.

My biggest concern with bottom dwellers is their compatability with my Yasha Gobies.

Marc, I had a question for you about Maxima Clams...

I've heard they are pretty difficult to keep, and even heard that they need to be spot fed in a small container.

What are you thoughts on them, and what do you think needs to be done to house them successfully long term?

Yeah, the townhouse is nice for now... but I'm hoping to buy a house within the next 2 or 3 years once I'm in grad school, have my car paid off, and student loans settle down.

I like big yards, not sharing walls with neighbors, and not having to pay extra for pets... just to name a few of my beefs

Your yard is GEORGOUS!!!!!! Tell the truth, hand watering, or underground sprinkler? I am a dirt freak. If I don't have fish poop under my nails, then its dirt from the garden! HE HE
