    Some crazy ones, some cool ones, some over stocked ones. All crazy expensive.
    Didn’t know Steven Spielberg, Lady Gaga and Kanye West kept tanks! A good couple of other celebrities too.

    I really like the shallow but vast ray / shark tank with the stepping stones.

    F1 yesterday was quite controversial
    But my son and I are Red Bull / Max fans. So we were quite pleased with the result :rolleyes:

    Yeah still recovering.
    Unbelievable and those rules are still strange to me.
    BTW : Those same rules worked against Max again and again. Mercedes protested on a daily basis and Max was punished for the most ridiculous reasons. So in that light I think Mercedes deserved so (boomerang effect), but mmmmmmmmmmm.
    I don't think I'll ever win a game of monopoly in this way hahahahaha.
    Mannnnnnnnnn

    As I said to my son (who's now 16).
    Even since he started playing kiddie football aged 5, I always told him that you have to respect the ref, and his decision is final. You may not agree with his call, you may think he was unfair, you may think he is favoring the other side. But at the end of the day, you have to accept it - end of

    This was really the most excitement we've seen in a while.

    I saw Twitter was in uproar over the daylight robbery over the F1. I don't watch the sport, but the meltdowns on Twitter is so fun to see :)
    And here I thought football fans are buts...motorsport fans are on a whole new level.

    But, all in moderation.

    It’s all the Merc/LH fans “throwing their toys.”
    The situation may have been controversial . But end of the day, Red Bull outsmarted them. Horner is an astute team principal

    They're quite pissed about the situation, and rightly so apparently; that's where the fun kicks in online between fans. lol. Crazy

    Watching it live, the ending felt like a robbery however to my understanding it was by the book although it was controversial.
    Not the biggest LH or MV fan but it seems like Merc is getting their just desserts after playing to the book to the letter or really pushing points for a long time

    20 Hours without power in Sea Point :mad:
    Managed okay as far as I can tell, no deaths aside from a single green jade shrimp.

    Batch of +-150 ram fry (about a week old) survived. I did a couple water changes through the day to help keep temperature, oxygen and ammonia in check.

    I know the pain, luckily even with the high temp on my office tank being 31 due the the ambient 36 in the office everyone in the tank was fine. I need to bring battery systems to work aswell….

    In other news my angels who I thought finally paired off since having them for months spawned… I have no intention of setting up fry tanks especially because they’re a cross bred pair and I’m not the hugest mix fan so there is little chance of a huge batch of babies as they are going to be restricted to a HOB breeder then they wrigglers.

    I also finally setup my Brine shrimp hatchery (Rain cone mounted on a wooden stand with pump and lights) and the comment received from my better half who bless her soul puts up with all the tanks at home was “wow it looks like a budget lava lamp”
