Not being depressed, trying to lower my mood before I try to sleep, not really slept for 5 days.

About three weeks ago I saw a molt drift across the display, it was small like large sexy shrimp sized.
It took me hours to figure out what it was as my l n hawk finished my shrimps off, about two years ago I put a small black squat lobster in, never seen it from day one.

Crazy things happen in our reef tanks. I've had a few of those "never seen it from day one" experiences, but one of my favorite stories was when I set up my first reef tank....I ordered two pistol shrimp from an on-line vendor, thinking it was such a brilliant idea because if one didn't make, I'd have the other...not so brilliant. They both arrived alive, so I added them both. It sounded like machine gunfire at my house for a few days. I felt terrible because I thought they were just killing each other and it would end badly (at least for one of them). The gunfire died down and I figured I was down to one. I wish I had pictures of this moment, but they BOTH popped out of the same burrow one day and I just about passed out! They lived happily together in the same burrow for a long time and both survived the transfer into my 90 for a good while. Crazy story, but one with a happy ending. ;Joyful

Hi Simon I hope you feel better soon.

najer · Dec 30, 2020

Thanks all, quick update, my covid test should come in the post today.
I squeezed the three day one pills in and have got the pain meds to a point that I managed 7 or 8 hours sleep in 3 stints, I hadn't slept for about 4 days.
My breathing is easier and less painful.

How was your morning Simon?
Covid test kit ordered, antibiotics for a chest infection being picked up shortly, I feel dreadful, I have to self isolate until I get the test results.

Get well soon Simon! Really hope you get a negative result.
