Morning all.

Thanks for the coffee Ben. Can I have a refill on that cup??
You and Awol would have been proud of me yesterday. Took me forever but I got a ton of algae cleaned out of the overflow and drain pipe of Keri's 75g. Do to an unwanted event I ended up doing about a 15 g waterchange on the sump too. In the course of events I also had to to play chase and catch the Sixline wrasse through all the compartments and baffles of the the sump.

I'll try to get the pictures download of the yucky drain pipe shortly.

I would give them a good 30 minute warning before you go downstairs to look

Hope the Vit D works

Yup. The puppy is a rescue puppy....as in a friend's sister & bro in law removed it from under their mom's shed. And the puppy can be put outside and only maintainance required is food twice a day, taken outside a couple of times a day, and the occassional vet visit.

OH! AND if the power goes out, I don't have to worry about my puppy surviving.

Don't do it! Think how much better your life is not knowing for sure what's down there.....and Ben will be home "soon". He can deal with it.
