Jeremy, I understand all about anxiety. The brain seems to take every little thing in your life and amplify it to where it seems like a crisis, and when one thing gets rolling in your head, it brings a thousand other things with it. My tank can be very soothing when I get over-stressed/anxious. It helps to quiet my mind so I can relax again and think clearly.

It has been fun watching your tank come together and it is looking awesome! I love seeing what people can do with some creativity and the gumption to put something amazing together (I got my 55 on craigslist too!).

Now, how about some new pics?!?

And my best friend right now, if you ever considering doing plumbing on a tank you will NEED one of these. Made it SUPER easy...

And, finally, what the tank looks like right now.

Did a water test yesterday and all the levels looked really good.

Temp - 80
Salinity - 1.025
Nitrates - 5
Nitrites - 0
PH - 8.0
Ammonia - .1
Phosphates - 0
Calcium - 350

Ohh, nvm about the lights. I thought they were incandescent bulbs.

I went to the doctor and the lump on the leg was actually called a "bone island". All it is is a patch of bone that grows much denser than surrounding bone, making it light up like metal on an x-ray, but its completely harmless, so that was good news. The stomach tests have not come back yet, but I am expecting to hear something on that really soon.

The pictures are delayed because we are running into problems finding the digital camera, but i am trying I promise...haha.

plecosword · 06-28-2008, 06:11 PM

I remember when our puppy was that small. Your tank looks great!

Jeremy0322 · 06-29-2008, 02:13 AM

And i dont know why i forgot to tell everyone but I got accepted to the University of North Carolinas Wilmington Campus for Marine Biology, but they need answer by June 30th at noon and I dont know if im ready, that is such short notice and housing and leaving everything...let me know what you think...haha

Octoman · 06-29-2008, 07:36 PM

That is awesome Jeremy!! If it is your dream, then go for it!

I'm in the Marine Science program down here at Savannah State and it has been an amazing experience!

blue_eyes53813 · 06-29-2008, 10:51 PM

Welcome back,,, Your tank looks great... The puppy is very cute...

elliottb · 07-03-2008, 04:09 PM

Puppy sure is cute! I am glad the star and shrooms made it OK.

lcstorc · 07-03-2008, 05:50 PM

Sorry things have been so rough but it looks like they are turning around.
What did you decide about school? Sounds like a great offer. I wish I could do something like that.
The tank looks great. I love the rock with the big hole in it. The fish must love it.
The puppy is of course adorable. I bet you are having a lot of fun with him.

SeahorseBT · 07-03-2008, 05:56 PM

I like your aquascaping.

elliottb · 07-05-2008, 08:30 PM

looking at pics of your dog makes me think back to when I first got shep. We have a video of him barking at the cat with one of their first encounters. I will try to find it and upload it onto youtube.
