Just put my Euro Reef RC500 skimmer in. I'll be filling the tank tomorrow to test for leaks.







This is one nasty skimmer!

Well, I had some bad news today. I will try and get throught this as best I can. Please bear with me.

Oddly enough, it was delivered by Mother Nature herself. Yep, in fact, personally. She regretfully had to tell me that I was 50 years old today!! Holy cow!!!! 50! I can still remember being 10!!! What happened in between?!?!? I still feel like having milk run out out of my nose and thinking its cool.

Funny how things can creep up on you. Oddly enough, some days, I still feel like in 10 years old (my wife confirms this)

Anyway, I'd better get going. I have to look up some clinics regarding Botox treatments and a good salon regarding my gray hair. Some kids are playing on my lawn and I have to go yell at them (that's what I think I'm supposed to do anyway). And oh ya, I better get my "Depends". Apparently, old foggies like me need those for some weird reason (maybe its because I need to go to the bathroom 2-3 times a night - lol).

Well, here's to my heart bypass and retirement in 20 years!

It's running now! A couple of minor leaks with the plumbing to deal with - nothing critical.

I am so thrilled with it. I've waited a long time for it. I can't tell you how excited I am!!!!!!
