How is the fight with the monti eaters?

monti's are toast.
not sure if the last of the eater's are gone or decided to leave the future generation for me.
moved a few monti's over to the tub but they aren't doing well.
param's aren't the same. fighting hair algae on the tub while i wait for the scrubber to start growing algae.
if i/you had time i'd meet you for lunch and give you what i got left.

I just power read through all 66 pages... what do I win?

Awesome job on the tank... loved all the ups and down and am excited for the screenplay.

Oh, and those clear bubbles a couple pages back? yeah:

Welp... I'm in Connecticut, so that's not going to happen. I'll probably be taking a trip out to Moab next spring and could stop by on the way home. Gotta go get the truck dirty...

the POTO Live Sale delivery saga.....
order shipped from POTO on monday night.
supposed to arrive to me tuesday.
delayed with no new delivery date available.
no show on wednesday and still showing no new delivery date.
i call POTO and tell them what's going on and to reroute it back to them as i won't be home thursday or friday to take delivery.
wife was home till 4pm today.
fedex delivered this morning 11amish.
never knocked or rang the door bell. (we have two dogs that lose their minds when someone knocks on the door).
i got home around 930pm to find my order on the porch.
water temp in the bag.

smelled really bad when i opened the bags.
temp acclimated for a few hours.
dipped. (shockingly, the free bristle worm survived the shipping, but not the dip)
in to the tub.
we'll see how it goes.

I hope they live, but the smell says otherwise. I do know corals are stinky. And acropora are super stinky!

they didn't survive.

That is a real kill joy. Time for a full refund. Or replacement at no ship cost.

 

[Lost in the Sauce]

Sorry to hear this Mike. I don't know what's going on recently. Has global shipping lost it's collective mind?

most don't cover shipping.
they should in this case only because the full order wasn't there.

i'm gonna guess it was the big weather event last week that caused delays.

Honestly my head has been so far up my job, I haven't even been paying attention to anything going on outside my small sphere.

my head is into duck season.
which dead bird count wise has been pretty chitty.

Bummer man. If it's any consolation that's the same report over here as well. Neighbor down the street, is a big waterfowl hunter. His trailer has been gone a few weekends in a row and not much to show for it from what I hear.

 

[sp1187]

my monday/thursday hunting partner comes back with reports of piles of dead birds him and his boys shot from tuesday/saturday hunts.

Sounds like you reserved him on the wrong days...

Sounds like fowl play (sorry, in dad joke mode today)

Big difference between deer & duck, but if it makes you feel any better, husband hasn’t had any luck on his weekend hunts and just got home from his week hunt with nothing. Unlike his motion activated cameras set up around his stands..they’ve had LOTS of luck
