I was actually thinking about writing another book as I learned many things mainly from neurologists since the last book. I have been trying to transfer that knowledge about Humans into fish thoughts to see if it compares or if we are so different that Human and fish biology have no reason to be compared in the same sentence.
We have talked about regrets in life . Write what you enjoy writing then if you win or lose you will have no regrets if I had only wrote that book.I was actually thinking about writing another book as I learned many things mainly from neurologists since the last book.

I learned a lot about telomeres on our genes which determines the life span of all living things and how that coresponds to our fish and how we screw it up with many of our common practices. These things are very easy and cheap to accomplish even though with our mindset, we like to buy commercial products to fix things that we perceive to be problems when we, in fact are making most of these problems.
I have to figure it out.
I was also thinking (not very hard) about writing a science fiction book because I read a lot of science fiction. But I have a weird sense of humor and not sure if I could pull it off.
Just set this QT up yesterday. Observation only, no meds. My thoughts are if the fish starts eating and stays healthy for 30 days or so I'm comfortable moving it to my display. I added mature live rock that even has some bristle worms in it and aiptasia along with some xenia. I'm working on getting him eating. It was picking at some black worms already.
My main "problem" is that fish are just one of my hobbies. I do very little to my tank because it runs itself. As you know, I don't have to quarantine, observe, medicate or any of that stuff because they are totally immune which is something many people can't grasp and just think I am either lying or delusional. I am old enough that I don't have to care about that.
Every man needs a man cave . You keep your self busy which is good for the head . You will have to follow orders from the doctor and WIFE to the letter and don’t rush it . I had a knee op they said at least 8 weeks then went back to work after 4 and no thanks for it . If you do everything correct you should be good to go . No carrying water / Making things / I will just lift this my self . You are going to be bored stupid so one arm typing for you on your new bookMy main "problem" is that fish are just one of my hobbies. I do very little to my tank because it runs itself.

I do a lot of building and inventing and as a matter of fact am on here now because I am waiting for the paint to dry on one of my projects.
This 4' drawer will go under one of my garage work benches. My friends make fun of me because from early morning, after my 6:00 am walks I am usually in my workshop/man cave building or inventing or experimenting with something.
I have no more room for shelves or drawers which is why I removed old drawers that I built many years ago and will replace them with this one.
I have to many hobbies and wish I didn't have to sleep which I am very bad at. I am also figuring how I am going to build so many projects I have started using only one arm.
I also have 4 more Steam Punk items that I wish I could move out. 3 of them are to big for a normal house but they are taking up a lot of room that I need for other things.
I think Sci Fi would be a good fit for your sense of humor.I was actually thinking about writing another book as I learned many things mainly from neurologists since the last book.

What lights do you run on your tank out of curiosity? It's a color I don't see very often over people's tanksJda, that is of utmost importance and one reason fish in quarantine don't fare very well. Home Depot elbows don't do it and stress fish immensely unless they were raised in a hardware store. If I put a stark white plastic plumbing fitting in my tank, my fish would stay on the other side of the tank for a month.
Fish need, almost before anything else a natural hiding place that is tight enough that the fish feels that a moray eel that he doesn't know you are not keeping with him but he wants to feel safe from it. The hiding places need to be tight and out of sight so we can't see the fish. Even if we look like Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, or his brother Arm Pitt the fish don't want to see us. Remember someone that looked like us captured him and stuck him in a plastic bag, then fed him pellets that he hates.
My tank is 6' long and the fish can traverse the entire tank well hidden from me. I have some fish in there that I may only see once a month if at all. We don't like that but the fish need it.
(This was right after I eliminated invasive sponge and had to remove the rock, then replace it so it grew algae which is now gone)
