OHHHH your gunna get it!

rofl

That's it! We're moving! (laugh)

I love the softies, too! Jay's tank is just full of colored sticks as far as I'm concerned... space that could be better used for softies or LPS! (laugh)

I'd love a frag of that Kit Kat Bar too if at all possible.

Sure! Are you going to be at the meeting on Sunday? I think we're bringing a frag of it for Ryan, too.

I have a stalker!(hitme) rofl

Don't feel bad... I got home tonight and who pulled up behind me? Nyles! (laugh)

Don't sweat it. I think all of us have added at least one thing to our tanks that turned out not to be model citizens.

Well, I will certainly look into "scoring" myself a syringe!

He looks so happy in your tank! (clap)

I'm sure we could get you a frag of the frog if you want, Ryan. We have two huge colonies of it.

It's not worth to much' date=' LOL...I am kidding with you Spayne, I just had to.(laugh) (laugh)[/quote']

Wh-wh-what?! You done hurt my feelers! Just kidding! (laugh)

I usually just make a slurry of stuff... frozen formula one cube, cyclopeeze, oyster eggs, phyto... whatever I have lying around. Then I squirt 'em with the turkey baster. (laugh)

I will get it from my wife... gimme a few

Hurry up! Now I want to know the recipe for that. Anything with avocados is YUMMY in my book!

It's all good. (laugh)

FWIW, I look at any forum with new posts... Brandon!

You are like totally awesome, dude! (rock2)

Deviled eggs? (devil)

Have you checked out All Recipes.com? You can find some good recipes in there... plus you have the added benefit of reading reviews from people who made the chow. You might get some good ideas in there for a side salad dish. Green bean casserole? Something using cranberries might be a nice tie in to the dinner.

I personally believe that we are all adults and should be able to self-moderate. I will step in when necessary, but I would much more rather see members resolve matters on their own rather than having a mod step in and settle the score.

I personally love my Canon XTi. Not happy with the kit lens that came with it though, but I have gotten some decent shots with it. If I were to do it again I would have just bought the body with a better lens. From what I've gathered, it's all about the lens with DSLRs. Definitely do your research. Here's a site with lens reviews for you:

I don't regret purchasing the Canon at all. I was between the Nikon D80 and the XTi. I went with Canon because it was cheaper. And well loved... just like the Nikon's are well loved. You can't go wrong with either one as far as I'm concerned. Especially if you get a great lens to go with!

Mods, do jump into threads...If I had a thread like this, it would be deleted...but the mods here are better then other threads, but they still delete them.

 

Thank you to stacey, jay, micheal, ryan, rich, and everyone else I have forgotten, I apologize for not naming you...Thanks guys.

We're working on a new system for moderation. Instead of one person deleting a thread, threads will be moved to the moderation forum to be reviewed by all of the mods so it's not just going to be one person making that decision. That way you can yell at... I guess six of us (we have ten mods). As for moderation of single posts in a thread, that is something we need to work on as well so just one person isn't making that decision.

We really are trying to make this site a great place for people to come to. We're just encountering some growing pains in the process.

And Brandon, if you did a thread like this it wouldn't have been deleted. As long as you discuss your side of the issue calmly (note: don't take any tips from me since I got defensive earlier in this thread) and not have topics that are too over the top (you know I love your whacky topics), your words of wisdom will forever exist on the website. Well, until the server crashes and someone forgets to back everything up.

What happen to the Lowman-vs-Smeggs comments. I thought this board was going to be different from TRT were mods don't jump in on every subject.

Er... no idea. Were there some deleted posts that I missed out on? I've been staying off the board today, a bit embarrassed that I jumped to conclusions and stuck my foot in my mouth. Not the first time, won't be the last. Maybe they deleted their posts? I dunno.

Thanks for all the nice words and the offers of help. I think I just got up on the wrong side of the bed yesterday. But I'm all good now. (laugh)

Don't worry, I'm not offended! You're going to have to try a lot harder if you want to offend me, that's for sure! (laugh)

Yeah, not changing it. Sorry! It works fine, the banner is great and Jay and I work for free on both the forums and front page. So no offense, it's staying as it is! If it ain't broke... don't fix it.

You know your addicted to reefkeeping when you start stalking your LFS owners. Huh Stacy(laugh)

What? I just happened to be in the same area that you were driving... honest! rofl

By the way, you really should stop doing that thing you do... you're gonna get arrested. At least shut the curtains!

What is the bulb over it?

Yeah, I second that. We used to kill chaeto until we got a daylight CF bulb at WalMart. No problems getting it to grow now! It seems like it's a "Lights of America" light. Jay would know more about the brand if you're interested.

My worm glow's red when I' date=' ahhhh what was the question[/quote']

your mom would glow red right before making you black and glow blue?

I am seriously feeling creeped out all of a sudden! :eek: (laugh)

I'm just nutty. I am a nocturnal creature by nature. Mornings are completely overrated, unless I'm still awake of course! (laugh)

Man what a difference a bulb change makes!!! WOW! I bet you are happy with those Jay. XM 20ks? Looks great. Later Ryan

Yep, XM 20ks! They are just nutty blue, I'm still trying to get used to it. But it certainly does make things more colorful. Absolutely no actinics running with those lights. Ah, he didn't say... we went from 4x250 watt XM 10ks to 3x400 watt XM 20ks. The 10ks had something like 96 watts of PC actinics running as well, but when he tore everything apart and sawed into the loft in the garage for easier access to the tank, he didn't put the actinics back in.

Whatever you're willing to do for us, I'm in! Whether it's a more in depth workshop or a presentation at a meeting. Or you could even have the presentation at the meeting and for the rest of us that want more of an in depth discussion, we could stick around while the other people take off. I dunno! I'm just way excited to have someone help me improve my camera skills! (clap)
