Good Morning!

I admire the hospitality award people. So many new people show up here it is daunting.

This is tempered with the knowledge that there are no longer any pet shops supporting this hobby within a 3 hour drive for me. I hate buying live things by mail. Yes I have done it and so far 100% have made it. Petco is about it here. They carry nothing to support a large tank though.

It bothers me seeing large fish in those tiny tanks. Especially the dead ones. A large CBB.

Thoughts of stocking an 8 foot tank are weighing on me.
 
Aren't they all the last upgrade? My wife is convinced that this ends with the basement filled with saltwater and fish swimming free range down there.

Then you need to add on a viewing room... oh and then a maintenance fish room...

The pile of stuff grows. I got 80 pounds of crushed coral yesterday.

Loved me some Hamilton what bulbs are you gonna use? 250w? 400w?
 
You had your fun. Change my name back or I post disturbing medical conditions with pictures.

Who knows what this is? I found out when I was 14.
Yes it is cold.

All to well. I have looked into more than one orifice with these types back inthe day.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat with Crystal Dynamic Aquariums, mine is only going to be 60x25x21 so about 137 gallons. Not going to break into the 200's in this house, will do it in the next, in a year or two or three.

Just had my 6 gallon Orbit 20 delivered while I’m out of town. My way to an upgrade after just sinking @$&@thousands into my WaterBox 230 is to get these little projects and say it is for the grandkids. So my next project while I get the 230 up and stocked is to start this cool jelly fish tank.
 
Good morning!

Meeting a long time friend at St Simons Island soon.

Doing a little BBQ on the beach, listen to the waves, and catch up.

Gonna be a great day!
 
Having a breast removed is funny?

I mean I didn't get to bring it home or anything. I had had it for 36 years. I was attached to it. I got to watch it make milk and everything. I saved pickle juice for months. I had a big jar.

All for nothing.

It was just gone.

Sorry for the life experience for both of you.:(

You'll love the hamiltons, I know I did ;)
 
I ran it over my tank now to check some things out and get the T-5s right. 2 460, a 420 and an Aquablue Special is what I ended up with. Then I put the Photon V2 back on the tank and tuned it to look the same.
Everything in the tank likes it. Basically all channels running 65% including the red and green.
 
96 x 24 x 24 240 or so. Ordered from Custom Aquariums.
waiting impatiently.
Custom Aquariums is about 20 minutes from my house. My uncle ordered his 65 from them. Really cool place, they have a really neat reptile display when you first walk in that has a chameleon in it :)

LOL, even the bad ones are way better than non life experiences.

The other post was intended to be funny with a bit of shock value included. Jill and I have both had some parts cut off our bodies now. We always joke about saving them in pickle juice.

Remind me not to poke around in your refrigerator looking for pickles...yikes!
