My cleaner shrimp decided a couple of days ago they are hungry and started snacking away on my two clams. They already made a 10c hole in my Crocea, and is starting to work on my Maxima too. It started with a very small pinch that they started to work on and eventually caused the clams to retract their mantles almost completely.

My Sexy Shrimp decided eating Christmas worms is far nicer than leftover pieces os mysis. I found the little bugger eating on the foot of the Christmas worm, and something underneath that foot kept coming out - almost like a little claw - and tried to chase the Sexy Shrimp away. Fortunately when the Sexy Shrimp decided to jump on the Christmas worm, it retracted.

Ribbon eel ate for first time since I got him. He did not take at anything other than LM prawn. Only a small piece worked - bigger pieces were rejected. He ate about 3 pieces in total.

For the first time since I got my Ribbon Eel about 2 months ago, he ate a big piece of prawn... It took a couple of minutes of persuasion, but I knew he was hungry in the way he poked the lance fish I tried to feed him with initially.

I just hope he continues to eat...

Whilst implementing a .NET application for one of my clients, I recently ran into a problem where a long running task would just suddenly stop working after about 30 minutes. No error, no exception - nothing. I had been troubleshooting this for 3 days now, and that is a very long time for someone with my experience (if I may say so myself). The difficulty with this problem is that there are no - and I mean absolutely NO errors. The only thing I could gather is that the long running task stops because the IIS worker process dies. I even added detailed trace statements - none of which helped. The output stopped dead at one my of audit entries:

Workflow.Audit.AddAuditEntry(new XXXAudit.XXXAuditEntry(this,
   "Some message"));

A couple of minutes ago I decided to put trace statements in the getters I am using here:
