I think that's why I like cats...they just take care of their own poo. I mean I have to clean the litter box but that's fine since they take care of the 'messy' part.

I'd say 'dealing' with the fish poo is WAY worse than the cats poo.

Yeah we know. Going to be a boy this time around. My wife said she'd keep it a secret but typical for her...everyone knew in a couple weeks lol.

I honestly have no IDEA what I'll do with a boy. I really have this girl thing mastered and totally don't wanna get ****ed on (literally). Only time I ever changed my nephews diaper he nailed me! I am prepared this time with these ****Shields they call peepee teepees haha.

I have no trouble cleaning my skimmer cup or siphoning tankwater with my mouth as a startup for some weird reason. The litter is my job and I really hate doing it. I did the dog thing tho and that was a bazillion times worse.

wth...'bazillion' is in canreef's dictionary. 'CANREEF' itself isn't lol.

I'll officially be screwed if I get pregnant and have a little girl...wth am I going to do with a little girl?!?!

Congrats on the the boy when the time comes though...that's exciting. I'm good with babies once they're past the blob in a blankie stage (figure 6 months) until they're about three...when the start coping attitude I'm done with them until they're old enough for the bar LOL (kidding)

You guys should try your hand at cleaning reptile crap...infinately worse than cat or dog.

But since I've restarted vodka dosing, the skimmate that gets pulled out is disgustingly thick and stinky.

(like how that was a super hijack and then came sort of back on track talking about fish and all)

plumbed the fuge
 
Here she is. Sits on a stand that needed to extend a little over my return valve. Closest bulkhead will have a strainer and be the drain, other is emergency drain. I ran out of sch80 90s so you see the extravagant result for the over-the-top return from the manifold!

Ohhhh, the fuge. I was all "here WHAT is" and looking back 2-3 pages to see what the context was and then realized it was mentioned in the title of the post.

Man, that's a lot of pipes and valves and stuff. Looks really neat.

I really like the look of the grey plumbing...WAAAAAAAAAAY nicer than the white. Is it more rigid too?

lastlight 04-10-2009 03:20 AM

The grey stuff is seriously WEAPON material. It's at least twice as thick-walled as the sch40 white pvc. My plumbing alone is pretty heavy. I lose flow, it cost more and had to be shipped but it looks great haha. I'll bet I could have a reef by now if I wasn't so fussy!
