Do I try Melanarus the third time. Yours is a great looker

 

[Raege]

I think a Melanurus can work just timing and luck of draw personality

 

[Crabby48]

Luck is a big part of this hobby. Normally my luck comes as bad luck. I’ll Have to wait for a lucky streak to take the plunge.

Hello Saltaholics, I ended 2020 and began 2021 with sepsis. Hospital folks got me squared away thankfully. About as scared as I have ever been of dying.
I've thought some about the folks we lean on and reach out to when things are down. Many of those folks true friends are from this site.
Recently they haven't been around as they have been hurt by policy enforcement here on a thread for LGBTQ reefers to reach out being deleted.
There are still tanks I want to follow and fellow reefers to support but I'm not feeling like logging in is opening the door to my extended Family safe space anymore.
I taught my kids that there was good and bad in every color race creed religion gender and you can only tell good from bad by thier actions so give everyone a chance get to know them by actions and you wont miss the chance to make a true friend.
I am sad as after other forums and bad behavior run amok thought R2R could stay closer to a family safe home spot.
I will try to keep up on build thread but the 75 gal adventure will perhaps just photobomb a friend or twos thread now and again.
Misfits Rich Brian Don Corey Keith Katrina Chris and the extended Misfits Thanks seeing a thumbs up a post here and there over the years has gotten me thru dark days. You have been my strength and support in ways you cant imagine
I'll be in the bushes stalking y'all

Thanks my fishy friend. I had a deep respect for folks in your profession before now seeing folks shorthanded in the er and on the ward and dealing with the surge it has doubled. God bless those who care for others in tough conditions at the best of time. A greater showing of love for your fellow beings idont think can be seen.

Thanks. You nailed it Healthy is the name of the game. Took 2.5 years to see it settle in. I’m to much the fiddler but back cured me of that lol. Going forward will remember what balanced the tank wasn’t me was tank itself ;Facepalm Will help it but never try to rule it again by doing to much.
love seeing how big fff and melanurus have gotten. may Need to upgrade to give em space to swim
