I saw that too. First Zoas that popped up were $880! $880!!?! And then $1500!!!! Holy crap! have never heard of Zoas being like that expensive! And that’s just Zoas!

It's becoming a mad house. I might have to watch the sales forum so someone fraggins their gonis.

Really loving my view. Absolutely want to buy a pair of noopsyche lights for the big tank. The lights that are on it now are ok, but I think I can do better. I was debating on just adding a blue/uv strip. But I really like the noop mini that's on the frag tank so I'm really leaning on switching.

Oh. And found through an ad on here some purty btas and great torches LOCAL. OMG no one is ever local to me, how amazing. Gonna try the bta in the Evo because my clowns love the Duncan colony too much. And they are a little aggressive with the loving.

Soooo sore today. OMG .
Yesterday, hubs and I helped an older friend get her horses feet trimmed and it was no easy task. She's got 6 horses, from 18 years to almost 30, which is really old and I've not been around a house so old, but the eldest doesn't really act or look that old, until you pick up his feet. He had no balance. The owner doesn't do much with them anymore, since she's in her 70's, but they are friendly, just not handled often. And they are Arabians. So basically a heard of old, semi wild, spunky minded horses. The ferrier had a huge job ahead of him, I'd say we got about 80% finished. Each horse was not pleased about lifting legs, whether it was mobility issues, arthritis, injury or just not into it, so it was a rodeo for about 4 hours. My arms are so heavy I can barely lift them. A couple horses only got the fronts done, too dangerous for the ferrier. But overall no one was hurt, and old horses feel a bit better. And old friend very happy she knows a few youngins that can actually handle her horses. (35 and 39 but don't feel like youngins right now though)

That must have been a lot of work! Glad you guys could help the horses and you guys are ok.

Cats do those things. Wild bunnies don't always pick the best spots for dens, many times ending that way. Or in lawns found under people's mowers. That's terrible as well. This one's den was in an appropriate spot, but my husband ran it over with an excavator while moving a log pile. Went to hide in the log pile and would have been crushed there if I hadn't seen it. So had to save the potato.

And now it's in my pocket.

Safe for now. That's what counts.

Well, he asked for it. He got too close to her pups. I guess she didn't like that. I was 11.

When my husband was younger they had goats and a neighbor's dog killed a few and working on another when it was scared away by hubs mom. There was half a goat and still alive and my hubs had to shoot it. He was probably 10. Growing up on a farm you see a lot. You grow up fast. I've raised goats too and lived in the woods with many predators and every day checking on them hoping not to find a murder scene.

Yup. It really sucks. You just never know when somethings going to happen.

I didn't live on the farm, we were visiting my brothers girlfriend. Keeping peace between animals is not easy. Yuh, those country kids grow up fast. They have too.

I'm jealous. I really wanted to buy more things. I have other situations on my plate at the time being

Sorry about your tank trouble @Goaway . I hope you get it all sorted soon. Send good feelings/vibes/hugs your way.

I also include I got to set up some t5's, so.. I am hoping the nems are caught on time and treatment is effective. They are both spitting out mucus right now

not pretty.
