00W's AIO Smorgasbord

What have I missed?
Let's see.
New fish, birthdays, dr pepper, Kev got me in a heap of trouble, couple pictures of Kev in high school or younger, broken skimmers and a Lotta love spread all over the place!
Probably a lot more I'm old and barely able to figure out where I am most of the time.
@tbrown is better at synopses.
Happy hair algae day!
 
Hey good morning.
I have been busy with a lacrosse tournament yesterday and dealing with hair algae. I am going to remove a bunch more of it today.
Parker!!! You were missed - us old people like to see ya!

Well, Amanda and I both added new fish this week - check out our builds for overly cute photos.

Everyone trying to get others to BUY more fish and corals - hehe

And it was Will and Frank’s bday this week.

And about 1000 posts of everyone doing stuff with their tanks that we all learn from.

Did I miss any other big milestones guys?

Yes we hit page 300 and Kev went nutter.
Lots of music videos and peer pressure everywhere.
 
Today is grandchildren day! Gotta get some coffee in me so my grandson and I can go look for bunnies that have found the community vegetable garden. Clearly he loves Nonna walks!!

Also stop by LFS for hermits and gaze longingly at the baby orchard dotty back and physcdelic mandarin goby. Not time for either, but I like to visit them.

Enjoy the day; I’ll check in later to see trouble you all have gotten yourself into

OMG so adorable.
 
are you bare bottom?
No. I get my water to a point where it's not quite overflowing to the sump, mix the water, add th sand and rocks, then top off (without the return pump running) until the sump is at the "full off" level that I want, then kick on the return pump and check my running level and adjust my ATO point.
 
He’ll be 26 yo next month, so that picture wasn’t exactly today.
My oldest son is 26 now. He's in the Air Force and is being deployed again in April. This will be his 3rd time.

Well, aren’t you a proud momma! Thank him for his service. My best friend was a C130 pilot and retired after 20 years, flys for Delta now. My oldest son is a mechanical engineer.

Yes I'm very proud of the young man he's become.

Excellent, this does seem like a much easier approach then mixing 5 gallon buckets at a time lol
