Now that we are entering the summer months lets all try and keep up on our water changes. I know I tend to get lazier in the summer ( real busy time for me) and this is the time of year that I hear all of the people letting their tanks go a bit without water changes due to vacations and other activities.;)

Yeah Pete... just call me on Sundays around noon to remind me.   Not before noon though...Saturday is sailing...Saturday nights are the regatta parties.  :) 
Now I don't think we get lazy... I think we get even busier and have even less time to maintain our tanks as we try to pack in as much stuff as possible.

Dear Pete;
   Congratulations! You have been selected to head up the commity on waterchange remindification. It will be your job to remind all of us slackers to get out the buckets and do something good for our tanks once a week. Unfortunatly as this is a nonprofit organization you will not be payed we do appreciate your effort in ths. We also would like you to know that we pondered over all 1 aplications for at least 10 seconds to come up with the best possible person for the job. Congratulations once again! LOl
Yes its my day off its either this or video games.

I've decided that I am going to let the natural flow run my tank. I will be hands-off for the next 6 months to 4 years. 
Naa, I am kidding. I change my water every friday or saturday. Like clockwork.
