..the coffee is excellent  |^|

..rained all night and we're in the low 40's for the rest of the day.....tonight/tomorrow they say we'll get with the kitchen sink of forecasts.....cold, rainy, snowy, gale winds,blizzards, sleet, yada yada..the miserable dangerous stuff.....this will all likely change, of course.... huh huh huh

Weather Bug- "Light Snow". National Weather Service- Heavy Snow with accumulation up to 6" inches with reduced visibility due to up to 35 mph wind gusts..... So do we flip a coin as to what forecast we should follow?

so we'll do any errands this morning and hunker down tomorrow... huh

,,more coffee...brb

Good morning all. The coffee is excellent. It's warming up today on the Delmarva peninsula but with that warm up comes all day rain.

I have a pair of pearlscale plats (from Liz) that spawned on the intake tube in my 40b and the eggs are now wigglers. They are fighting off the other 3 fish in that tank so it looks like they have good instincts.

My choice is whether to pull the tube or pull the other three fish. One of the three fish I would remove is a rehabilitated fish that was so badly beaten and almost died and is now doing quite well with this group. I don't want it to slip back into a "not eating" mode.

I need to make up my mind today. huh

That's a good idea. I do have a 20 that's ready to go but I had some other plans for it. I'll figure it out.

Too late. By the time I got back down to the basement the spawn had become breakfast for the others. I did manage to full the tube with about a half dozen wigglers on it but I won't do anything with those.
