gena Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Ok...well, couldn't get it to focus for me today. It kept either wanting to focus the white part or the dark part but not both at the same time. That's the iPhone for ya, I guess LOL. Unfortunately I think now would be a good time to take a photo since all the bright white is gone and it's mostly reddish brown. The telescope has been put away though . Here's the best I could get before the full eclipse. Man, trying to photograph the moon without a remote on a 20* night is rough! I don't anticipate good results 20 degrees? I was out there in my pj's and no shoes LOL. Link to comment
nevermore1701 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I couldn't get anything at all at full eclipse, gonna sift through the ones I took of partial and see if any turned out. Nope, not a one. Disappointing, but not surprising. Link to comment

Disappointing, but not surprising. I saw some photos online when it was partial and they weren't completely focused either..the white was out of focus. It wasn't easy for the professionals either . OMG...GoTs last night, wow. Still cringing over death by molten gold, yikes. Don't want to say whom because I don't want to spoil it for anyone. Most of you already know what I'm talking about anyways. That has to be the most brutal death yet, that I've seen on the show....for me anyways. Getting ready to go do my mid-week water change now .

gena Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Just wait, the deaths get better I'm scared LOL. Got the water change done. Tell me I'm not the only one that has ever dumped a full frag rack on the floor????? I pulled the whole thing out to scrape off some algae, full of Zs and Ps on plugs. Cleaned it up and was going to put it back in the tank when I caught it on the rim of the tank and flipped the whole thing out of my hand I think I found all the pieces. One fell in my water change bucket. A couple on a step stool, a few on the floor and one made it into the tank. Some did stay in the rack. I'm a klutz . Link to comment
FlowerMama Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 oh my gosh Gena, I'm imagining everything being flung. Glad you're ok. Link to comment
gena Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 oh my gosh Gena, I'm imagining everything being flung. Glad you're ok. There were a lot of quiet (son in the house) f-bombs flying LOL. And I don't curse....often . I was fine. My concern was missing a piece and the dogs finding it. I have quite a few frags and can't keep track of them, but I'm pretty certain I found them all. They seem to have survived my clumsiness too . Link to comment

Felicia Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I love that you are watching GoT The molten gold scene is pretty amazing...in a brutal death sort of way. Gotta love the HBO violence and sex. I am a klutz too, Gena, so don't worry! I'm the one that kicked over a container of acclimating fish once, among many other klutzy moves. I'm glad you found all the frags! Link to comment

I saw GoT and scrolled down as fast as I could. Now that I am reading it I remember that episode. BTW Gena it gets much more brutal than that.

Been avoiding Twitter and FB for weeks since I cancelled HBO. I don't know how long I can go without seeing or hearing something. Need to get someone's HBO Go account. Anyway, this tank is amazing. So packed with life and color. Definitely an inspiration. Link to comment

gena Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 The plush life of having HBO .You need it . Did you ever find someone w/ the food you feed your mandy?Nope. I just checked Drs. fosters and smith and they've pushed the expected available date back again. Now it's May 21st. Luckily my mandarin is still doing ok. I think he's eating the ROE and cyclopeeze I've been feeding...plus live pods. Link to comment

Felicia Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Yeah...he's not suffering for lack of food. Thank God!!!! I'm glad to hear he's doing fine. One of the people who came to our last local club event mentioned he had gone to Neptunes to get you some and mail it to you, but then they realized they didn't have any left. He was asking me if you ever found any, and I told him I didn't think you had. Link to comment

HVani Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 OMG GoT from this past weekend was amazing. I'm always a day or so behind siunce I don't have HBO. It's REALLY tough avoiding spoilers.
