Bored - heck no! I was up at 7am - I rarely sleep past 6 or 7 even on a weekend - that's still a couple hours later than what I was doing on a weekday. Up at 7am, had my morning coffee out on the nice cool patio (64F), with the fountain trickling, and the birds & hummingbirds keeping us company. What could be better!
The only nasty hitchhikers I had, I still have - darn Majano anemones. I do have bristleworms, but only consider them nasty when I get stuck by one. Now I got the smart and wear gloves if I'll be touching any rock. If I have any others they've managed to stay of of sight for about 2 and 1/2 years. I did have a couple black crabs in the bottom of the containers that my rock came in, but have yet to see one in the tank in all that time.
