We had storms here last night like we have back in Illinois. It was one noisy night but thankfully not tornadoes. Coffee good. Now to check on the fish room and the koi fry. I think I need to pull the parents since they won't let me clean up (they are relentless) and I am pretty sure they were go into full attack mode if I put any small BNs in that tank. lol

They appear to be grazing on that algae. There is also diatoms in there that they are grazing on. lol  I just don't want the bacteria to buildup. So far they look good.

Snake a siphon into the front corner furthest from the group....if you hold it real still, the pair will accept it...I do this to get a few gallons every day when the raisers spawn.....even the plat didn't mind after the first few times.....train em...or they'll train you first...LOL

That's exactly what I did yesterday. I will do it again today. Hopefully I can get 20 to 25 percent out.

I've missed a couple days on here folks. Buyers and looky-lous are coming out of the woodwork and keeping me busy. Missed you too until last night when I read most of the postings.
For the past couple days....yup....coffee's been good. I like the kick start in the mornings. Our days have been in the 60s and yesterday the mid 70'. Today though, back to the 60's and cloudy and maybe some rain.

I will be going to have the diagnostic for my back one more time. It appears the placement of the needle to the L4-L5 facet could have been a little better last time which could be why i didn't get the relief. I spoke on the phone with a nurse yesterday. Asked her a lot of questions and got answers i'm comfortable with. She's works with the docs on this procedure a lot. So off I go at 1 today to get it done again.

Have that nurse paint a bullseye on your back so they can hit it this time, ?....good luck..

Best of luck Ron. Hope it works perfectly for you this time.

Back with the first doc this time. I'll bet she doesn't miss (although they never said he missed the target, just that the "placement could have been a little better at the L4-L5 facet)!!!

LOL...that's 'mumbo jumbo' for wtf..missed it....

[BallAquatics]

Just tell them you don't want to see that other Bozo anymore Ron.  I treat Doctors just like car mechanics..... a screw up and I'm looking for another one.  Why people hold these incompetent Docs in high regard mystifies me.
