  1. I have got to be stupid or something. Going on a diet and quitting smoking at the same time. I'm miserable, but losing weight. And tomorrow will be three weeks smoke free.

      Keep it up! I feel your pain. Even with just diet and exercise, change is difficult!

  2. Noooooooo! AC broke for a 2nd time...

      That happens to me at least once a summer - in a new house no less! I hear your frustration. Believe it or not, frozen water bottles do the trick in a pinch.

      Teresa

      Cold Stone is my favorite creamery - I have looked everywhere. I have to drive to San Antonio to get it. Let me know if you go, I'll chip in on gas ;)

  4. Tragic, and irritating.. Came back to work for the first time in a week, only to find a AA battery in my pico tank. Wiped out all inverts, LPS and Fish are ok, but allmy softies are dead including GSP

  5. Anyone have a good recommendation for a small canister filter for my desktop tank. I hate this HOB filter!

    1. Teresa

      Teresa

      Not that I know of. I ordered mine online. It's an awesome filter though!

      I guess he figured if he could walk on water, he could do anything.

  7. Disaster struck today. My main frag tank crashed while I was at work. About $3000 in corals gone just like that.

  8. Anyone have a 150 watt HQI fixture & bulb I can borrow for one week? Mine just went out and the new one won't be in for a bit. Thanks

    1. Teresa

      Teresa

      I would love to borrow it. I'm going to Ren Fest and can pick it up on my way back into town. Can you email me your address [email protected]. I will be back between 7 and 8pm. Thanks!!!

      @wizardx322 I'm the same way. I rely on a friend of mine to tell me when to text the family ;)

  11. I totally killed everything in my 12 gallon nano :(. Medicating the entire tank is never a good idea - I should have just stuck with water changes. I hate life lessons (especially ones that repeat themselves).

    1. Teresa

      Teresa

      thanks for the condolences. I will probably reach out in a few months for some frags. I'm trying to look on the bright side: I'll know which corals are my strongest.

  13. Tore out the back wall of my biocube yesterday. Loving the new look. Hating the fact that I lost both peppermint shrimp and one black osc. clown :(. WTF

      h2s release makes more sense. I don't know the chemistry of my tanks, I just know when something looks bad. My remaining fish has survived :) so things are looking up.

      I think there was a pile of gunk in the back and I didn't siphon enough of it out. All my snails and corals are doing fine, though.

  19. Finally opened my new aquarium and the tank is broken :(

    1. Teresa

      Teresa

      Yeah, major bummer. Now I have to wait for the company to file a complaint with UPS. Why does anyone use UPS any more?

  20. Sometimes being addicted to this hobby really sucks. Just spent almost $200 on a new tank/light/filter that I don't really need - just want. Arrgg - I should kick myself.

    1. Teresa

      Teresa

      but to answer your question - the tank and light will replace the current set up for my pea puffer (more appropriate lighting for a planted tank) and the filter will be used on my five gallon that's going to my office.

      Good call - Ella and Jenny are in so much trouble! Then again, my dog friends are complaining that I never spend money on my pups cause it all goes to the fish :/

      Where's the like button for comments? And I agree with Bio, that's what got me to go to my first meeting outside of a frag swap ;)
