Is that a Lava Lamp? I guess it sits next to your black light poster collection!

Millennials just rocked the Twitter verse after seeing your Lava Lamp!

This comment confuses me so much and technically, I'm a millennial, altho I do not self identify as one. Haha

In plain text Millennials all over the world are laughing at Baby Boomers attachments to Lava Lamps and black light posters. Sorry as a Baby Boomer I don't speak Millennial since it is not my first language!

I guess I should have said Instagram instead of Twitter huh?

Hey if we can choose our own pronoun we can certainly choose which generation to identify with

 

[Why-Me]

So, I'm 36 not on the tweeter at all I check the book of face once a week and use my phone for texting and calling, oh pictures too.
Call me a millennial all you want but I break the mold
My signature is there for a reason and means something...

 

[SashimiTurtle]

Well everything I've studied to try and not be a millennial, says the age group is from '81 to '95ish, and I was born in 85... so I'm a GenXer. Don't @ me. ;Hilarious;Hilarious;Hilarious

A friend of mine got me to take one of those stupid quizzes on Facebook. Something about what generation do you really belong to. I got anti-millenial.

Also, what is wrong with lava lamps and blacklights? Those are cool.

You mean like the Biology teacher in Florida who expects her students to use a non gender pronoun to refer to her? She not only fails Biology but English in one fell swoop. Talk about the next generation of confused adults...just wait to see what that breeds in the future. Higher education via the use of confusion....nice. I blame this all on politicians that voted for legal Marijuana. Now everyone is comfortably numb as the song goes!

I went and bought a trim router and round over bit to finish the doors, but when I got home this happened.

Sweet! Daddy, you are supposed to nap too.

@Fin and @dantimdad I saw y'all are getting some nasty weather. I'm thinking about you guys!

 

[dantimdad]

We are fine here! Just glad it's today and Saturday or Sunday!

Thanks for looking out!

I pre ordered the following corals from the local frag swap this weekend: Nuclear Green Nepthea, Aqua Green Nepthea, MC Purple Millepora, Glittering Gold Acropora, Miami Hurricane Chalice, 2" frag Idaho Grape Montipora Capricornis and 2" frag Bubblegum Montipora Capricornis.
Also decided the first fish I'll be adding is a trio of flame cardinalfish.

Grats I’m getting your tank set up. Is that salt in there or just fresh ?

Salt at 1.025
I used the water that's been cooking in my brute for 2 months or more now. Also used a 5lb rock, ceramic media rocks and bio balls that I threw in the Brute 10 days ago to get some bacteria. Oh and two small rocks that were in the Brute the whole time.
0 Nitrite 0 Ammonia 10 Nitrate as of two weeks ago.
Will test the actual tank water itself tonight.
I used Carib Sea Aragonite max select sand just over 1" deep. Do I need deeper sandbed? I have more.

We didn't get any bad weather. It rained for about an hour and that's it. Bright sunshine from about 10am on. I am in the lower southwest corner of the state. The bad weather was up in north Louisiana, where this time of year is always dicey. Thanks for thinking about us though.

I am holding a some spots open for corals I want to add around the 1 year mark and the Idaho grape monti is one of them. Gotta post pics once you get them acclimated and in the tank.

I wouldn't go deeper unless you want some elevation changes for aesthetics. From everything I have read and heard, less sand is better for the long term. I like the idea of no sand, but I like the look of sand and think I will only run bare bottom tank with a future sps dedicated tank.
