People will do anything to cool down their PCs. As evidenced by me, who once put his laptop in the freezer because the cooling fan was broken....and then fell asleep....for three hours.

Seriously people, learn from my mistakes :D LOL

Which is all besides the point. Let's stay on topic here guys - EVERYONE GO OUT AND BUY A SELTZ. They are ub3r x 5000 vs Mag-Drives and other similar pumps.

Today's updates:

- Filled the tank with RO/DI water.

- Added Ocean Pure Pro salt to 1.025.

- Filled up the Zeovit reactor.

- Filled the Phosban reactor with Silicarb.

- Tossed on a Profilux controller.

- Jacked the 2' HOT5 display unit from the store and rigged it over the top of the tank using some Aquactinics riser brackets.

I'll play with the controller over the course of the week.

Harry Potter kills everyone with an Uzi.

You're welcome.

Updates:

- Seeded the Zeoreactor with some stuff from the store.

- Added some 20ish lbs of rock from my friend's tank. I had to scrub a lot of hair algae off it though. Pretty queer.

- Rock came with to RBTA's. Whatever... I have test kits and loads of free time.

- Added a Koralia 3 and 4 to produce a gyre flow effect.

- Forgot the camera at the store.

- Yelled at my roommate for eating peanut butter out of the jar with a spoon and not cleaning it. I'm allergic to peanut butter. Cleaning it off the spoons is such a hassle. I don't know what the crap, but is it really that much more effort to run a spoon under hot water for 15 seconds while scrubbing? God. Why are people so lazy? I think it's cause they play too much WoW. That game is retarded. I watched my roommate/friend go from being a super mega pick-up artist/ladies man to a sedentary, unmotivated jack-hole because of WoW. Parents, don't buy this game for your kids. If you do, you've pretty much have gauranteed their untimely failure in academia.

- Stared at live rock and anemones until I was satisfied with the flow.

- Sat in front of the fridge for two minutes . I need to go grocery shopping. You can't make anything with ketchup, lettuce and mustard.

You obviously haven't gone to college. One of the few useful things I learned there was how to make food from condiments.:wink:

Hello lettuce rollups! :razz:

Ahem - Pot. Kettle. Black.

:wink:

BTW Albert, what's with your egregious use of homophobic lingo? Homotesticle? Queer? Hmmm.

Oh sorry, I'm off track: tank sounds good. Want pictures.

I'll trade you a rock with no RBTA's for the rock with RBTA's if you are itching to get rid of them :p

@ Christy

- I go to SAIT. They didn't teach me nothing about survival, only about debits and credits. Jackwads take my money and don't even teach me useful stuff. God.

@ Drew

- I'm not homophobic, I just like those words. They punctuate my daily vocabulary with happiness and joy.

I'll have to remember to bring home the camera today. I took some PIMP pictures at the store and they need a home.

In the meantime, here's a picture of a turkey, a monkey and an elephants bum:

@ Greg

- No can do, they don't belong to me and my friend (Cyril) has an emotional attachment to them now that his girlfriend is gone.

Speaking of which, why would anyone take a six week vacation to Vietnam, China, or any other semi-third world country? Cyril's girlfriend has confided to him via phone and whatnot that she's dreadfully bored and has the runs on a daily basis. I mean, what was she expecting?????? OMG, </wrist>
