kimberbee Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Ohhhhhhhh ya, I think............nope. No idea. Just do regular water changes. I have been doing regular 4.5 gallon water changes every Wednesday evening without fail for at least the past 4-6 months, if not longer. I really f*ed up when I moved my rocks around. And really probably just went though a not-quite-mini cycle. 2 Quote Link to comment

pgrVII Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 You have to bathe and do diapers and shit? Not so much with my client I have mon-fri. He's young (15) he needs wiped,his issues more stem from frustration of not being able to communicate very well, so we got him a tablet that has lots of phrases and pictures that allow him to express in full sentences and phrases,so that helps,we are teaching ourselves and him to use it. My other client on Saturdays is total care and needs assistance with everything. Side note to work my local petco asked if I would like a part time job in their saltwater dept.since I am there frequently to get dog stuff and other animal junk. Mostly tank maintenance and what not so the sales employees can help customers. So I may take em up on it for some extra fun and cash and a discount. 5 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Just kinda worried about the extra work hours competing with off hours with the dogs. They get really crappy if I'm gone all day. I already work a standard 46 hour week. So add another 10-15 on top. Quote Link to comment

jack1978 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Yea haha I hear ya jack. Any new tank business today? Nope....on the road. Probably going to be a little stagnant for the next week or so. Trying to get a giant beam lifted into place this weekend for my back patio structure. Solar install tomorrow. Wife was on Pintrest or however you spell it and found some new computer work station she now wants. Came home yesterday and our computer cabinet is gone, shit all over and a big empty space for "us" to build a new work station! Yeah! Although, I have to admit. .....it looks pretty cool....in my head. 3 Quote Link to comment

Every time mine comes up with a new project I'm happy to oblige it but I tell her it stacks more leverage to letting me have the spare room so I can convert it to munitions storage. 1 Quote Link to comment
