Or try your method and keep pumping in fish until they're broke

In all fairness Mr. Crabs, Paul does not advocate wholesale wasting of fish as you imply...funny emojies or not. You sir, can do better and just say you disagree with his approach.

It is however, hard to argue with his long term success.

Good day all!

If there were fish the entire time then parasite wasnt killed off and is likely still in your tank. Only way to eradicate it is to have the tank sit without fish for 76 days to starve out the parasite

waited 3 months before i did a test run, still no luck

I'm guessing another 90 days will do the trick

Or just leave the tank without fish forever.

Have been tempted to do so

Good morning. The family is all here plus dogs and cats and future family. Good times.
Louie's sister keeps him up all night so he sleeps all day.

As for the fish thing

30 fish living with pests from the sea. Works for me.
The eel, lion and angel are getting along in the other tank.

There is going to be a new guy here soon. I wonder how they choose which one has to do it?

That's great - congratulations on the new risk management device!

I'm headed out to do water changes for a couple of FW aquariums at the local nature center.

Was just informed that Jebao powerheads are bad because they don’t have “brushless motors”. I think I died inside a little bit. There goes my faith in humanity....

Good morning all! Getting the kids ready for church. I hope everyone has a great Sunday

At 6:30 this morning the sun just stated to come out and I figured i would go for a bicycle ride. Loosen up the stiff muscles a little.

There is a little hill next to a pond here and I started cruising down the hill.

All of a sudden I see this young deer right in front of me not moving. As I got closer and closer I could tell she had that
"Geezer in the Headlights" look.

Just before I crashed into her she took off. She was running right next to me for a while and as she looked over at me I could tell she was thinking "Wow this Old Coot can go pretty fast"

But I don't think deer know much about bicycles going down hill.
This isn't her, maybe her sister.

Good morning all! Adding a sump today to one of the new 55g breeding systems. It may lengthen the cycle but no worries!

Good Morning all! Happy Sunday!

@Peace River Enjoyed the INDMAS meeting. Was great to connect to some local reefers, that offered to help with any questions or emergencies I may have. The meeting was at a members house that is doing it’s own research in how to advance sustainablility of the saltwater aquarium hobby by figuring out how to breed not yet breed fish in his basement fish room set up. The basis is that hobbiest can be or better should be active part to find soultions for sustainability in this hobby. So for me more to think about what kind of reefer I would like to be....
