Some storms are, and have been, going around us. Today the smallest of the marble angels will be going back into the 75 with his siblings. We're leaving on vacation next week and I want to make sure he'll be okay in there. He's not an aggressive eater...I think it's partially due to the effort of swimming with huge fins. He needs some time to grow into them.

Coffee here as usual very good.   The sunshine is nice and bright with not a cloud in the sky. Going up to 87 today but with low humidity so it will be a great weather day for me.

Going to have lower temps today...in the 70s I think. Still good. 78 is actually prefect here.

Went to the club meeting last night and picked up a new, for me, Rotala plant, some VietNam Minnows (variety of white cloud), and some black bar endlers. I just released the endlers into one of my outside tanks. The VNMs are in my indoor 55. I practically denuded it yeaterday in order to get some Odessa barbs out. Then the guy decided he didn't want them! So back in they went and the plants are still in a bucket!!! I can actually see fish in the tank now!!!!!!!

Lucy has a Bunco meeting here tomorrow night so I gotta get the tank replanted today....

Today was much better than yesterday.  Business still slow, who knows why?  They had me busting my butt last month.  Still no rain, but I got my carpenters .  They moved the airpump outside, covered the tanks and painted clorox on the rafters.  I couldn't even smell the Clorox when I walked in.  They took out that heavy expensive piece of glass that was supposed to be a skylight but has nothing but a thorn in my side, and put more lumber in where it was needed for reinforcement.  They've got about half of the insulation in and are working on installing the fan and humidistat which will be in by they time they leave.  I will have a big hole punched in my stash of cash by the time they're all done, but I will be happy.  Happiness is more important than dollars

The boss man's son brought his young son.  He told me that the little stinker went out to them and said,  "Two of those big round fish are floating on their sides on the top of the water.  Is that bad?"  'Bout gave them heart attacks.  He was pulling their legs.

It's good that it's all finishing up now.....your fish room will be safe from the elements now....and a good exhaust fan to boot

I'll bet you put the little stinker up to doing that!!!

I don't think I'd have had the guts.  The guys know how much the fish mean to me, and they are doing such a good job.  It was a good joke from someone who knew he could get away with it.
