About 2 hours or less from hitting the road. Its been forever since I tore down a tank, more time planned next time.

Safe travels tomorrow! (Today?) Let us know y'all made it safe when you get a chance.

Guess who's officially in Greenville NC finally

Ended up having 2 take a power nap for an hour earlier and the minor backing into a front bumper :mad: the trip went smooth. Waiting on my water 2 be delivered but Alcatraz my eel and other fish are doing fine.

36 hours with a 1 hour nap is about my max. Tank got a good cleaning before being resetup. Alcatraz and my few fish have been acclimated and reintroduced and by what I can tell doing fine. Skipped feeding today but will resume tomorrow.

Side note bristle worms and contact with a hand doesn't feel good.

Glad you made it safe. Welcome to North Carolina! We'd like to welcome you with a hurricane this weekend. Haha Are y'all ready for it? We got a new generator today so that we can plug the tanks in (among other things). Hopefully getting the generator will make this storm steer clear of the area though since that's how Murphy's Law works

Hey welcome home bud...

FINALLY about time lol . I also welcome you to North Carolina. I think you may have missed the humidity . As far as the hurricane and if it hits . I will be working if power lines go down and no one home to watch my tanks if my power goes out

.

I had no idea until yesterday afternoon about the hurricane as I hadn't been watching much tv the past week.

Duke4Life · Oct 4, 2016

Turned the lights on about 20 mins ago and my eel and 3 fish survived with everyone ready 2 eat. Feeling much better today.

Welcome to NC, I live in Cameron about 15min from Fort Bragg.

Current look, will be moving rock around:

Duke4Life · Oct 4, 2016

Considering I don't have much, picked up a bubble wand earlier and extra batteries in case we lose power.

Also heard Fish Fish Fish in Plymouth is switching owners.

First gripe:

Thought living closer to the ocean I would be able to find better fresh seafood then I did living in Louisville, KY, ayyyy wrong answer. No place carries squid or octopus, seriously!

When I told 1 guy what I can easily find at my Fresh Market back home he seemed amazed, the 1 down here carries 1/3 of what the 1 in KY did, and Fresh Market was my backup store up there lol

I was told to go to Washington. I don't mind exploring as I have a fairly good sense of direction and have come across some awesome sights I wouldn't have seen otherwise.
