Rather than worry about the remote possibility that the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attack on the U.S will have any impact my life next month, I just booked my flight for MACNA 23!!! I hope you guys are also gearing up to attend with me, because we are going to be a'drinkin' for sure. If you've not heard me talk about how great MACNA is in the past, google "melev +macna" and I'm sure you'll get all kinds of cool links full of MACNA treasure to peruse. I just checked and got About ...
Managed to get enough plumbing done today to do a leak test on the tank. I still have some more to go for my reactors, but thats not necessarily a priority right now.

Exciting new stuff for the tank. Got my new reactor and pump installed on the tank and a new fish! The clowns won't be in here for too much longer since they'll be moving to the 10g and I couldn't pass this guy up. Royal Gramma Lawnmower Blenny, I still love this guy. :-) ...
