Everytime I look it seems like there's twice as many. Haha

My wife and I did a much needed garage cleanup. Very warm today, 70 something. But about 45 mph winds. Also smoked a pork butt, made sameday sourdough, and roasted broccoli for dinner.

So yesterday I finished setting up the QT. Today more fish room cleanup and setting up the WC bin.

Sounds delish!

So freaking many bristlenose babies... my goodness. Tom you were right. I pulled the cave into a hangon breeder box a couple of days ago before any escaped (I thought). And then stripped the babies out when the majority of them left the cave since I had the male in there still. I did a big water change on that tank and found about 20 fry in my overflow box. Thankfully they couldn't get past the sponges into the sump, right? I'll remember that this summer when I find a colony of plecos in there.

They're in a tray in the fry system tank now. There seems to be a good number of fry that have different colors. Some look every light gray. Some almost dirty yellowish. Not sure what's going on with that. Maybe just normal variation. Will be interesting to see how they look as they grow a bit.

Sitting at the airport here in Dallas. Flying out today after a week of hard work here. Very stormy, hope I get out on time. I’m not sure anyone likes being in the airport, madhouse. I do enjoy sitting by the window at the gate and plane watching though.

Hi Matt, I hear you about being at the airport. Did you have anything to do with all the wildfires? Safe flight home, ok.

No sign of the wildfires, good bit away from there, I stayed downtown all week. Just had a corporate event at one of the hotels down here.

After what you are going through I gives me a reminder to replace the "T" coming out of the tank and backup valve, faucet, pressure valve all that's on the "T". It's all corroded and fear a leak in my future. While I am at it I think I am going to replace the tank for good measure since I don't know how old it is. Also who knows what would happen tring to remove the corroded "T".

No water is worse than no electricity. Glad you have water again.
