Nadiin, I've re-posted the house photos (previous posts). I now have PhotoShop, so obscured the house number. :ph43r: Don the Plumber returned a few weeks ago with some other people in order to show off his Rube Goldberg-ish reef aquarium plumbing job. It turns out Don the Plumber is also an illusionist: during the social call he entertained everyone with magic tricks. Ogre's beautiful teapot :t has a place of honor on the living room mantel; the silver filigree message cylinder is artfully placed on the coffee table. Where are the Hugos, you ask? Relegated to a china cabinet in the basement! :lol: |

For those who are wondering why Herself's :cherryh: Progress Report hasn't been updated recently: She, Jane, Ysabel :Acat: & Efanor :Acat: have been in Texas, visiting Carolyn's family. They returned safely tonight. I've been fish-sitting and am pleased to report that nothing died. :baji |

Last summer I fish-sat for the very first time. What Carolyn did not tell me was that the aquarium was particuliarly fragile from a major chemistry crash the previous day. Everything went well & I didn't have to add any chemicals, only filtered water, as well as run the tests to make sure all was OK. :fish :baji :fish After returning, Carolyn posted on her reef aquarium board about leaving her tank in the care of a novice sitter who didn't know anything about tanks but was meticulous about following instructions; that things had gone well even though the aquarium was not fully re-stabilized. In response, fellow reef board members congratulated Carolyn; shared horror stories about their own fish-sitters, and advised her to "hire (me) out and make a ton of money". :lol: The new house's tank is fussier in some respects, & I had to fiddle with chemistries & the protein skimmer almost daily this time. Carolyn says she owes me a big rib dinner at Tony Roma's for all the trials & tribulations. :lol: |

My tank is fresh water. I have many many fewer problems with it. But, my fish are not as pretty as with a salt water tank. |

Here you go, Kyran-ji: The Glorious Tank, July 2007 The Glorious Tank is MUCH more impressive now. The Hammerhead coral is massive & will need to be fragged in the near future before it takes over the entire tank. The yellow Watchman is significantly bigger compared to when Herself got him: he is now a virtual "horse", Herself has proclaimed. The Mandarin is about the same size. Herself says probably neither one will get much larger. |
