Feeling Guilty.
Well went out today to the Seafood store and picked up some nice tiger prawns, mussels, clams, oysters, fresh fish and son to make another batch of Blender mush for the tank. Well I broke out all the seafood and was cleaning it while looking at the tank...then back at the seafood.........then to the tank. Well to make a long story short. Tank got ripped off and we had ourselves a nice seafood dinner.
Thier is something morally wrong when the tank eats better than me.
But know I pray to the Reef Gods for forgiveness and promise not to do it again.......well.............not for awhile anyway.

Mike if you waste away to nothing from nutritional deficiency, who will feed and care for the reef? I suppose the wife could feed it shrimp opancakes but I bet that wouldnt last long

Somehow Mike I think tying into all that seafood and knowing how delicious it was that the guilt trip faded quite fast!! Johnny

Don't feel bad.. Everytime I go to the seafood counter for the tank I also have to pick some crab legs for me.. Those guys are not ever going to beat me out of my crab legs.. I just try not to eat them where the fish can see me..

Billc, you're missin' half the fun! I often sit and watch my fish while snacking on a piece of leftover chicken....and I always share....with the cat, and, the fish! (we can't afford crablegs for me or the tank! ) |

Mike-
this whole thread takes on new meaning when a veggie goes out to shop for fish type things in the grocery store.

Eric B covers those vegan buying seafood issues in his book, and I think we may have "mentioned" it in MACO class
By the way Mary, Welcome to TheReefTank
