Cute tree! Each year I get a tree a bit smaller than the one before. I'm hoping for something about the size of yours by the time my youngest hits high school. tongue.gif


Thanks! A single guy doesn't need a big tree, so the little one does the trick! My parents finally went to a fake tree after my youngest brother hit high school. wink.gif

Where is your yellow scroll placed? I have a frag that is alive and grows, but the polyps never extend. High flow? Low flow? Close to the lights? Shaded?


In my 20L, it was on the sandbed in low to medium flow. It had polyps typically extended, but didn't grow a whole lot in all of the time I've had it. In the 29g, I plan on placing it in similar flow, but higher up in the tank, so that hopefully it will grow! I think it will stay in the lower half of the tank, though.

HA! If you have any children you know that look is the devil, and there is something going on in that mind that will cause you great dismay in the very near future!!!!!
opy01

That's a good point. It still has a degree of "cute" built in though, or else the human race would have been wiped out long ago, on account of killing all the children. laugh.gif

The Robert A. Heinlein method of raising a child where in once the child begins to speak, he's put in a barrel and fed through the bunghole. When the child reaches 18, you decide whether or not to drive the bung into the barrel.

That sure would make the 18th birthday an interesting day! Either the kid will be legally able to purchase cigarettes, or he'll be rolled over a cliff. Hopefully it's Niagara Falls at least!

That's the one reason I like UPS. It's constant updates, anytime it gets to or leaves somewhere. I bet the UPS site bandwidth usage goes through the roof every time something of mine gets shipped by them. tongue.gif

I'm keeping an eye on the green slimer that is right next to the infected acro. I haven't noticed anything yet, but I need to clean the glass tonight to be able to get a good look. I'm hoping that just a dip for the infected acro will be sufficient!

Oh, and the local reefer that I got the red, purple, and green monti caps, as well as the birdsnest and yellow scroll from is selling his 500 gallon system. Soooo.... that means that tomorrow I'm heading over to his place to get some more frags from him! Assuming the price is within range for what I want to spend, I think I'm going to get the 29g a green slimer (because I love the one in my 20L), a bright green millepora, and perhaps a yellow porite.

yeah, if they come knocking on my door it's going to be hard to explain why i powdered an interceptor pill to kill red bugs on acros, lol. but it's in a sandwich bag, so if it were hazardous and I was trying to do something bad, why would i seal it in a sandwich bag?

Excellent point! Plus, I think everything goes through a UV system these days. Or maybe that's just for federal building mail.

before this stuff goes out, what should I do to make sure usps doesn't send the feds after me?

Gotta get the good frags while the gettin's good! This guy had really big frags for really low prices. If I remember right, a 3" red monti cap frag was $5. No wait, that one was free. I think the purple cap was $5. If this guy's old prices stand, the slimer will be $10, and the porites $15.

I think that as long as you don't include a threatening letter or mail it to the fed, a bank, etc, it should be fine. tongue.gif Also, if you have any labeling for the interceptor, you might want to toss that in. Or, just print something off the net with the interceptor name/logo on it and toss that in. The fact that the powder is sealed in a container should help too.

Grrr USPS..... they are not updating my shipment! I hate not knowing when to expect a package.


Yeah, yeah.... it's obsessive compulsive tracking....

.... but with the way my USPS carrier likes to "hide" packages, I like to know when I need to be getting myself home to grab it.
