I finally did it!

I live in Texas and have a fireplace that I never used. It just sat empty and sad. I have a 5 gallon tank that sits in my living room and I always wondered if it would look cool to put one in my fireplace. Well after a lot of convincing of the wife, she finally let me try it out. Needless to say, she is very impressed and me as well. It’s a 20 gallon tank. The black face is held on with magnets so it’s easy to get into. There is plenty of space above for me to do any cleaning or work needed and I have an outlet just to the right of the aquarium. Super simple to run a power supply into the housing. I have an auto fish feeder so I only have to get in it once a week to top off the water and feed the fishies.

I finally did it

I have always stared at my unused fireplace in my living room and wondered what it would look like with a shrimp tank there instead. I finally convinced my wife to let me build a tank inside the fireplace for Father’s Day. We had a gas fireplace that was not connected so I removed all the parts that I could. I put in a plywood base and added supports to the front so I could bring the tank out flush to the mantle. I have an outlet to the right of my tank so it was easy to run a small power supply into the tank area. I trimmed it out with high density fiber board and it is attached to the mantel with magnets. It turned out exactly like I wanted it. Maintenance isn’t too hard because I have plenty of room for access. I put an automatic fish feeder so I don’t have to remove the cover so much. So far zero issues. Edit: it’s a 20 gallon tank

Loyal source

I have a supplemental claim in for my migraines. I was contacted by the VA on August 6th letting me know I am being scheduled for a c&p exam with Loyal source. I have not received anything form loyal source. No emails or phone calls. Do you think they just did an ACE exam? With it being a supplemental I can’t see anything with the trackers.

Catch and release

I went to visit my wife’s grandparents this weekend and brought my light with me since they have so many antiques and knickknacks. Found this cool little gem in one of their curio cabinets. BLUE URANIUM!

Next Steps?

I’m just trying to figure out what my next step should be. If I am reading this denial correctly, it is saying my MDD and the medication I take is not responsible for my weight gain and making me obese. The issue i have is I already had this connection done for my OSA and it was granted. Do I need to have my PCP document that when I’m on my depression medication that I gain lots of weight. I’m talking about 50 to 60 pounds every time I’m put on the antidepressants. Who should I file HLR since I already have a disability that has been connected this way? Let me know what yall think.
