Steve's 480g upgrade

[Jar*Head]

Kar, i live in southern California, the new home is in Denver Colorado. I ext my order to stay in California a little longer waiting for my new baby arrive then will move to Colorado. I will depart at the end of Aug, the wife and our new baby will come over at the end of Sept. It is quite a bit of distance from Socal to Denver.

Ah, I was going to suggest that you could get the tank over and cycling in May and then if it was close you could go every day to check on it but now thats not sounding like a good idea.

Kar, i would love to do that if my new house is close by. The military always move people around every 3-5yrs.

 

[kar93]

Really? Does your wife know how to take car of the tank for when you are away or do you have friends that can do that kind of stuff?

 

[Jar*Head]

She know how to feed the fish, dose the zeovit. I need to teach her how to mix the salt and do water change but i don't think it is a good idea because we will have the little one

 

[Aaronovky]

how far along is she?

6 months and some change....

Congrats' on the Jr. coming along..... trust me, it will change your life...but for the better....

 

[Aaronovky]

hope everything is well you'll feel the luckiest man alive when your little Jr. turns up in 3months.

 

[Jar*Head]

I am not sure how wonderful it is to have the Jr because this is my first. One thing i know for sure that I wont be able to purchase anything for the reef tank in the next two years

Your mindset will change once you see your baby

Terry, sound like you have the experience.... Is it something you know for sure or you HEARD from someone else

You will know a love for your child like you have never known.
You won't get a lot of sleep for a year...but you'll be happy.

I have not go out for almost 6yrs so that won't change much. I don't see why i need to go out when i can have all the fun at home with my reef tank (When i used to have one) and Reef Central.

hehehe Sean, i don't sleep much anyway. I hope she doesn't cry much

Your baby will serve dual purpose. You can feed your baby/change diapers in the middle of the night, and then check on your reef

 

[Aaronovky]

i bet you will be absolutely nakered when the Jr. Comes so we might not see you as much because you wont be on RC you'll be catching up on sleep

 

[Jar*Head]

I will be around .

 

[Aaronovky]

good maybe they should set up another site called baby central for first time parents :thumbsup:
