Well, I cheated by making chicken noodle soup in the Crock pot.

Well we got a couple hours of hail off and on here so I would have gladly traded you both!

And as for husky puppies, I got lucky and I think that's because shes not a pure husky. Although when she wants something and you're laying in bed ignoring her, she will take the initiative to remove all the blankets from the bed so you will get up. Arguably the most effective alarm clock out there. ;Shifty

Did you get any damage? Hail can be very destructive. We had a bad hail storm here in May.

Nothing upon an initial inspection, we also park in the garage to avoid any damage to our vehicles, luckily we are one of the few around here that have an oversized garage so we can actually fit both of our vehicles in it comfortably. Most of our windows have overhangs above them as well which really helps.

Not that I typically agree with @Katrina71's enabling ways, I can't really argue them in this case ;Bookworm

 

[sfin52]

I agree the list needs to be bigger.

All rocks but one scrubbed, left it for the blenny to munch.
Water change done today.
I think I'm ready for the swap.
Phone is charged, got my extra lenses for it.

It is looking like happy hour at the snail bar...

 

[Katrina71]

Good morning. I hope to see frag swap pics!

Speaking of...do you think an AquaMedic media reactor could be used as a scaled down hatchery?

The only thing you need is a cone shaped container, air pump and line, water, no iodine salt and baking soda. (Reef salt will work, but pickling salt and baking soda is cheaper)

The cone shape with the air pump keeps the eggs tumbling. A flat bottom would allow them to settle away from the air. You dont want too much air either. Not too much where they splash up on the side and get stuck but just enough to keep them tumbling.

@Katrina71 have you looked into Mandy feeder like Paul b

DIY Target Feeder for Mandarinfish (and Pipefish)

We as aquarists tend to keep all sorts of creatures in our tanks, and some of them present a challenge to feed. We know what fish eat, and we know how fish eat, but sometimes the fish’s schedule do…
