Hi David!

Tee hee, I knew you'd be missing it as soon as you came and visited your critters. laugh.gif

BTW, Theodore told his Kendo class about your impromptu performance for us last night. cool.gif bowdown01.gif Bravo!!!

I thought you could only have one blenny unless it was a very large set-up. Is a 120 big enough?

Do you think your skunk will accept another one? If so, I say yes. She is a cutie! My only question is the bluespot, are you going back to a sandbed?

Hopefully ... I will try to get one that is larger then my current one ... the Jawfish ... ... ... yeah ... I am going back to having a sandbed ... I admit smile.gif lol

LET THERE BE WATER!!! smile.gif ... The tank is currently filling up as we speak ... doing a FW run on it first ... make sure nothing happened to it during the move ... hate to waste all that salt ... to then find a leak! smile.gif
ap123
Whee!!!!!!!
DCG1286
YEAH!!! Finally ... this sucka is starting to get filled up ... (again) smile.gif

sonofa##### he's back!

Glad to see you back around here man!!

I'm still confused, surprise surprise, about what you did. I know you moved so did you sell or just let people hold your coral and livestock for the time being? You were planning on getting a 180 or 200+ gallon, right? Sounds like you went back to the 120 that you had before so are you going to start over with new rock, sand, etc or just recycle what you used before. My brain is all wacko.gif laugh.gif

Either way, glad that the move went great and you're getting things salty again.

What's up Adam?!?!?! smile.gif
LoL ... well I was supposed to buy this 180 ... it wasn't really going to fit ... so rather then take the BIG risk of buying it having it delivered ... decided to stick with the 120 ... which is fine by me. smile.gif
My livestock is being held by a couple friends for now ... until I get this tank up and running and cycled again.

DHaut
What's Fishtown?
ap123
Fishtown is a LFS near David's new apt. I've never been, so I can't say if it is or isn't a good one. smile.gif

Yup ... LFS 5 blocks up ... they have a rep for having "not so hot" livestock ... but the fish there are very cheap ... and they always have a nice supply ... I saw a beautiful Male Wantanabei Angel when I was in there earlier! smile.gif VERY PRETTY!!!

An official yippee was needed on your thread for your lovely lady getting the leak resolved. cool.gif

So...did you see any nice yet inexpensive little fishies when you were in Fishtown? Neon gobies, jawfish, mandarin... or the ever popular yet elusive healthy 4" rbta for $10? tongue.gif

LoL ... Thanks Anne! wink.gif ... Inexpensive ... I saw a beautiful little juvenile Labouti Wrasse for $50 ... lol ... worth it considering the fish usually goes $100+ ... They had some really cool Blennies that had awesome personalities (if you ask me.) smile.gif
