How are you liking Florida Christy?  Looks like your tanks are settling in just fine. And I forgot you have the coolest cats.

Thanks. 😊

 

We are quite happy here. We lived in such a small area for so long that it’s nice to be somewhere with so many choices for everything. 
 

I still need to figure out what I want to do for work though. The thought of going back to what I did before or anything remotely corporate in nature makes me want to gag. 😅

I hated the corporate world. It had its perks, like heath insurance and paid time off, but you pretty much have to sell your soul for that. I like my job now, except that I'm working 60+ hours a week because we can't find people to work. Want to move a little farther south and I'll give you a job?

As expected, the reason the flame scallop suddenly appeared was because it was time to die. 🙁

I was told those things don’t last long because when they’re harvested theyre already mature and have short lifespans. That electric one I had was seriously cool and lasted like two weeks? Bummer.

Yeah I knew they only live a few years and I’ve had this one for 2 1/2 I think.

Now that is a goodly amount of time. I felt kind of cheated over mine.

Those Flame scallops are a novelty, nothing more, nothing less. It's a shame they don't live longer. If you can find them, tropical abalones are REALLY cool and really long lived. Mouse just passed away after 6 years. 😞

Unique corals supposedly has captive bred and hybrids. Catch is the price tag, Reefcleaners also has them listed but I don't know when/if they may be getting some in.

Lol, maybe I do.  Been getting into a lot of the whole bourbon bs. Drink some, but don’t drink a lot of it. Def buy too much, kinda like coral issue. Here are some of my booze 😅

 

I guess, yeah, I have some addictive personality.  Have to always buy something. Corals just haven’t been “IT” for the past year, so I’ve been buying a lot of booze

At least you’re up front about it. I’m still in denial of my coral/tank spending problems

Hell I have a 20 gallon tank……no water change in 2 months and haven’t fed the tank in over a month…..not even sure I can see in the tank right now……

 

yeah I just enjoy some beer and that’s about it…….this tank stuff just doesn’t do it for me anymore…..

I know how that feels. Yeah the past year-ish, I’ve been leaving the tank doing its things. It’s about to be ready for more attention. We’ll see

I’d probably save a lot more money if it were just a scotch problem
