I found out that a big part of this trip is a 50th wedding anniversary. The human was in the wedding party. We went out to dinner with the family and the bride and I hit it off tremendously. She let me taste anything she was drinking through my air hose. Funny Lady.

Auntie made a roast pork, smashed potatoes with gravy, summer squash and corn in the cob. Friends came over for dinner. So much laughter and noise her neighbors came to check on her. I like knowing they watch out for each other.

Diver Dan here. Good morning everyone. Last night was a change of pace. The human did bring me and her phone to the party. She didn’t take a single picture! Unofficially the head count was 144 out of 150 that was expected. 
 The human was so busy table hopping, talking and hugging everyone. She got her picture taken but never took one of me. I am not insulted. Well not to much. She was living in the moment and definitely had a good time. Today most of the humans can’t stay awake. They get up for r a cup of coffee (and to pee) then, have a piece of cake 🍰or toast and go back to sleep. Seems like today will be a relaxing one.

Well the trip is winding down headed home. Yesterday we had a cookout. Well done natural casting hot dog and bun. They don’t sell these in Florida, so it was a treat for the human. The treat for me was - I went in a human tank! I didn’t even know such a thing existed. What a blast. So BIG!

Did you go into the FB group to post a pic! What a cool idea!! I found a book like that once in a coffee shop where you were supposed to read it, make a post somewhere, then leave it somewhere for someone else to find - fun!

This tank was intentionally not fed while on vacation, unintentionally it also received no light. Human error setting the timer. She did a one gallon W/C and replaced filter media. Cleaned the media rack and back wall. Most corals look OK. One hammer probably not going to make it.

Yesterday the human was invited out to breakfast. She brought me along. We placed the second rock we took home from Chelmsford rocks out side before she ate. It was gone when we checked after the meal was completed.

This morning the human pulled the baby toadstool and the not doing well hammer and placed them in the 20L. Then she removed two zoa frags from their plugs and glued them to the large rock. Rearranged the scape a bit. Placed me in the tank and fed some reef roids. Flow and lights are off but here I am back home.

Time to update the human has restarted this tank. She used mostly rock that was dried out but soaked in a bucket for a few days with a pump and SW. On 8/24 she filled up the tank with SW got the SG to 1.025 and temp is steady at 80. 8/25 add the rock from the bucket. Took some filter media from the 20L which should have some bacteria in it. 8/27 started adding Fuval cycle concentrated biological booster. First time using this product. If anyone has used this product any information especially results would be appreciated.  After just a few hours a golden (yellow) damsel (petco), a small piece of LR, and a frag plug with a few mushrooms were added. That little fish is a hoot! he will eat anything that is offered and is really enjoying the tank, only day 3 but so far so good. 

 Not sure what this tank will end up with stocking wise but right now it doesn't have any sand. Probably will have a thin amount. In the next few days.
