That is a gorgeous (cinnamon grandis?) paly there in the middle of those green grandis palys!

I don't know the names because they already came with the tank when my friend gave it to me, but if they are those, thank you very much,
This is what they looked like last October

Good morning all!

I’ve 100 saved up for my lid lol. 100 to go and I’ll finally be a cool kid with a kraken lid over a reef.

Until I get the 70 up then I’ll need another kraken lid lol.

Oh and congrats to all y’all winning stuffs! I’m hoping I’ll be lucky for an orphek. That thing looks fancy.

I LOVE those lids, I have a 32 g Biocube and I take a quote from them and was more than $200, so I made a lid by myself until I can raise the money to buy one

That thread makes me so sad as did the one with the maroon glass surfing.

Me as well, well sad for the poor fish in both and mad at the idiots that put those in that situations. The 5 gallon guy was bad enough but the guy with the 3 gallon Pico is way worse.

Thank you! He loves the rubber thing that fell off one of my old powerheads a few weeks ago. It's the one thing he's picked up and kept on for a long time.

My grandson came out of his room said “Morning, Granny.” Laid down in the couch and said “Good night.” And went back to sleep lol. But beside him is a Rex that roars and it’s just periodically going off without him touching it. Right by his head. Oof. Reminds me of the cursed furbys

Just took advantage of reefsbysteels sale to order a bundle of goodies.

This is not fish related but it made me think of Jennifer so I wanted to share it here. She was someone that I feel truly embraced these words. I hope you guys don't mind.
Stolen from a friend. So worth the time to read it.

Carpe diem

(Not my writing)

Barely the day started and... it's already six in the evening.
Barely arrived on Monday and it's already Friday.
... and the month is already over.
... and the year is almost over.
... and already 40, 50 or 60 years of our lives have passed.
... and we realize that we lost our parents, friends and we realize it's too late to go back...

So... Let's try, despite everything, to enjoy the remaining time...
Let's keep looking for activities that we like...Let's put some color in our grey...Let's smile at the little things in life that put balm in our hearts. Despite everything, we must continue to enjoy with serenity this time we have left. Let's try to eliminate the afters...
I'm doing it after...I'll say after... I'll think about it after...We leave everything for later like ′′ after ′′ is ours.

Because what we don't understand is that:

Afterwards, the coffee gets cold...
afterwards, priorities change...
Afterwards, the charm is broken...
afterwards, health passes...
Afterwards, the kids grow up...
Afterwards parents get old...
Afterwards, promises are forgotten... afterwards, the day becomes the night... afterwards life ends...

And then it's often too late so let’s leave nothing for later...
Because while waiting for later, we can lose the best moments, the best experiences, best friends, the best family...

The day is today...

The moment is now...

We are no longer at the age where we can afford to postpone what needs to be done right away.
