Re: My slow 135g build

I rinsed and scrubbed LR with fresh SW. I doubt that FW would hurt it though.

Re: My slow 135g build

Re: My slow 135g build

Base Rock! Of course.

Since it's dead already I think FW would be fine also. RODI would be best though.

Re: My slow 135g build

Your chronicle is starting to read like a soap opera. I hope you get all the leaks taken care of easily and get back up and running soon.

Re: My slow 135g build

Thanks Jack and Greg.

Hey Nikki, its giving me a run for my money but i'll get it right sooner or later.

Becky, i dont know where the cheating or lying come into play but i've had a serious tooth ache since this weekend so my patience is short with everything because of the pain half the time. and the other half i'm feeling pretty GOOD because of the pain killers, if you know what i mean but i dont trust myself doing anything major to the tank will on the meds.

Good night everyone, Terry i expect you to wake me up with another one of the E.S.P. post that i got this morning. its amazing the same time he posted it was the exact time i rolled out of bed, it must be the universe talking right Greg.

Tooth ache...good enough for me. Ask Scott, dental problems can kill ya.

Terry, I haven't watched soaps since I was a little kid...I want to say that all relationships were assumed heterosexual. Kathy might be able to confirm or deny if the soaps have caught up with the times...but I can definitely work in the silicone and rock cleaning. lol

The Universe will speak to us. We only have to chose to listen. I chose to start listening two years ago and my life has rewarded me... big time!
