Italy Mexico Panama The Netherlands (if a layover in Amsterdam counts!) ...wow, looks like I need to get out more often. Planning a trip to the Dominican Republic in November!

So, what did you end up making? And the next time that the menu is your responsibility, make it a Manwich night. It's so easy that even I can make it without screwing it up! Just serve up a side of baked Lay's potato chips, and you have a complete meal. Oh, and if you really want to elevate it...

Congrats! And here are the dancing bananas and the dancing 7-Up dots to honor the occasion! My boyfriend is a mechanical engineer with a bunch of letters after his name (BS, PE, LEED AP). He works for an architecture and engineering firm in Phoenix. I'm not sure how often...

Best wishes for a speedy recovery! Did they let you take your appendix home in a jar?

Jenny, I haven't been around the boards much lately, but I've been making a point of stopping in about once a week to check on you guys. I was deeply saddened to learn of Tobin's passing when I logged on tonight. I'm sure I'm not the only one here that will miss his kindness, wit, and dancing...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY (oops, I mean "happy belated birthday!" I didn't realize this thread was a couple days old!)

Here's a tip on fragging fox coral. Place a rubber band lengthwise (and tightly) around the coral at the point you want to frag it, so that the rubber band draws your "cutting line". Put the coral back in the tank for about a week or so. The flesh of the coral should separate on its own so...

I'm addicted to home improvement/decorating shows, so I do enjoy watching Extreme Home Makeover. But I always cry at end when I see the families overwhelmed with emotion at seeing their new home. I think it's great that you get to be a part of something that's going to mean so much to one...

Congrats!

Or should I say "red-clawed"? My snail population has been declining at a rate of one every week or two and I haven't been able to figure out why. Yesterday morning I was observing my tank with just the moonlights on, and I noticed my emerald crab perched on an overturned snail shell. He sat...

My vote is that the dog's tongue is rolled. Now the question is whether or not a dog's ability (or inability) to roll its tongue is genetic. In humans, the ability to roll one's tongue is a dominant trait. Is it the same in dogs, or can they all roll their tongues if they choose to do so...

Oh, and here's one of my female, Hillary, guarding her mushrooms.

My male clownfish, Magellan (named for his penchant for exploring the filter compartments in my biocube), has taken to hosting with my candy canes, but he'll only do it in the morning before the lights come on, and he still sleeps with the female in the back corner of the tank. I think he's a...

I took this picture at Sea World San Diego last year. It looks like Shamu is saying "hi", so I thought it'd be a friendly little avatar (unlike maxalmon's nasty little beast! )

Hey everybody--I got the privilege of seeing this tank in person yesterday! As beautiful as it looks in these pictures, it's even more beautiful in person! Azfishgal has done a great job of setting up the tank and chosing livestock, and Mr. Azfishgal did a fabulous job on building the...

Hmmmm...always an excuse for why there's no pictures yet. Anyone else here think that while he was on his way to get the camera he stopped by the LFS and found they were having a "90% off all corals" sale, and that he just couldn't help himself--he just went nuts and bought a bunch of rare...

Originally Posted by azfishgal Thanks everyone. I'm happy with how it turned out. Delta, yes I am trying to get the GSP to grow on the branch rock. I've been surprised that it hasn't taken off. I'll try that idea of fragging it and putting some on the bottom. I do seem to notice more...

I'd love to help out with some advice, but unfortunately the only plant life I can seem to grow is red hair algae!
