Maybe even prices!

Yes Sue, I was but this summer along came the need for a new drain field for the septic system. Kind of put a crimp on my office tank plans. I can't put them in the big tank and the 29 gallon has to come down so I'm a bit stuck. If worse comes to worse I'll take them to Niceville pets for store cred...

The difference, my friend, is that I'm selling them for exactly what I paid for them. I didn't purchase them with the intent to resell at a profit. I don't have a business license to sell marine products, and am therefore not a commercial seller. And I don't sc$%w over my friends and fellow reef ent...

I picked up a nice pair of juvenile cinnamon clowns last fall from Suzi in Milton, FL. My 210 is finally up and all livestock transferred except Suzi's clowns, a three stripe damsel, and a blue devil damsel (I finally caught them). The clowns are the same price I paid her $10 each or $20 for the pai...

If we weren't crazy, we wouldn't be in this hobby! You've got lots of company.

Glad to hear it. Just remember no more sniffing Kalk!

Don't think about going to the Doctor. Go to the Doctor! That's a chemical irritant that can cause respiratory damage if left untreated. Go.

On a less enthusiastic note, my daughter found the other half of my goby this afternoon. She told us earlier that she smelled something funny. Guess she followed her nose.

I wound up with half an orange spotted goby the same way. My daughters Jack Russell Terrier seems to have disposed of the other half.

Drew,

Now that you're going FOWLR, you should look for a 240 (96X24X24). Your fish would love it!

Andrew is absolutely right on this one. That's why so many folks use very small (20 gallon or less) tanks for pony's.

It's true I don't see a lot of large freshwater tanks. It would be quite impressive as a South American tank. I see even less super heavily planted tanks (where the fish actually disappear in the plants). Actually, I can only think of one. By the way Sue, how is your plant tank doing? Seen any fish ...

And she's good on painting tips. The main reason that my stand came out as well as it did was because Sue stepped me through the entire process. It was a pain but I get compliments every time someone sees it. Thanks Sue! By the way, I also vote yes for a smaller tank.

I wish you the best in exiting the business. I'm sorry that you feel I'm slandering you. My sources do not wish to be publicly revealed as (unlike me) they do know you and you them. I respect their wishes and choose not to disclose them. I'll let your reputation speak for itself. You may post where ...

Andy, I'm glad that you clarified your position. I'm also extremely happy to hear that you have NEVER sold anything that you've been given for your personal use. I will say, that was not what I have been told by sources which I consider reliable. Since I neither know you or have had any business wit...
