Merry Christmas to me (and to you too!)
 
Hello,
Here is what I have been doing for several years now, but this year its with an iPod...
I wait till all have left Atlantis on either Christmas Eve or Christmas day, set up a cold beer or two and some crab claws (and not from some of the display crabs either), sit infront of the reef tank and just observe while thinking of all the things I'm grateful for, and areas where I hope to do better.
So Merry Christmas to all and always make time for yourself, it is so important and is a great gift to yourself.

Merry Christmas everyone! They say watching a tank relieves stress, you should be the most stress free person in the world after sitting there for a while!

I think next year I will take the seat in front of the other viewing pane!

Happy holidays!

If it wasn't my tank, then yes but I'm always looking for the next thing that may be going astray, but that is what this night is for, to hopefully just sit back and relax, and it worked.

Sorry Dave, it will have a different night but I'm sure we can arrange something :)
I have the big office chairs on wheels and I'm sliding back and forth between the windows. Now if I could just hook up a Roomba or two to slowly push me back and forth, then that would something...

Mike,
I got 20 pounds worth and can put a few aside for you visit. LMK when you are coming and if you still have the coral you were trying to place, bring that. If not, no worries and plan on leaving with some frags anyway.

mgny 12/26/2007 03:53 PM

Joe i still have it. I will let you know when i am heading out there. I will bring the hammer and some others.

A little over 2 years now, they school nicely otherwise I wouldn't have them in there.
