Paandemonium Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 How did you manage to get into Cuba without a guide? I thought you were required to be with a licensed agency or something. Well before I did my Spanish citizenship(haven't done the American one yet) I was a Cuban citizen lol I was born there so I can go in and out as I please but I'm fairly certain you can too. I didn't see many Americans but I did see A LOT of Canadians so I don't think you need to do a whole lot especially as an American citizen. I think people just assume that you need special permission to travel over there. We did use a travel agency to get the tickets. Here in Miami there's one around very corner though(mine was literally across the street) and they do the hard work for you like sending over any files or in the case of you being a citizen of Cuba getting you a visa. You can pretty much go freely over there for cheaper than you can Dominican Republic or Puerto Rico you just can't bring rum or cigars back because of the embargo. Link to comment
Alex B Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Que bola! Looks like you had fun! Isn't it awesome how almost all the cars are clasics! It's amazing how they keep them running with such limited resources. I have a Cuban friend that says he can fix anything with a fork and bubble gum...lol Link to comment

Paandemonium Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Random acan that I thought died and magically came back Its time to get rid of these guys because they've decided to outgrow their little section. Ill be keeping nubs of each one My brother and dad on Muñeca "Doll" my grandfather's favorite horse. She comes over when you call her name, only drinks chilled water, only gets ridden for special occasions and enjoys the lake quite a bit. My grandfather built her her own barn heavily reenforced with cement, steel bars, the whole nine(usually its just wood lol) and she has has about five acres of roaming land to use during the day with a couple other animals. the horse is spoiled rotten. My brother holding a chicken, basically freaking out Looking onto one of the recently planted tobacco fields/ hunting for eggs Here have a sunset! Link to comment

Paandemonium Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Nice color! Do you remember what the mature polyps looked like? If this is the one I'm thinking of the gold yellow color spreads a but more as matures and then it's basically all gold with a blue outline Link to comment

Paandemonium Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Should be receiving a box with some stuff on Tuesday. If I do I'll post pictures. Also, I decided to do a water change with real ocean water just for funsies. Spaghetti worms are becoming a major pain in my side right now as there are a bunch around my polyps. I think that maybe if I put sand in the tank they'll make their way down Link to comment

Your other midas blenny was really nice.. Tanks looking good Claya and liking the bare bottom look, really blends in well. Though you might not get any reflection light which you would get from adding white sand. Link to comment

Claudia, I'm just getting really interested in Zoas. The only colony I have grew superfast in just 3 months from 5 heads to 24!! So they are so rewarding I want more! But I have a lot of those worms in my gravel bed too! Your stuff looks awesome! Link to comment
