Default Xmas gifts...?

So what'd everyone get for xmas (tank related & not!)?

Besides a new bundle of joy in the early morning of dec 22nd, I also got an Neptune Apex (lite) and a Gift Certificate.

Mostly got money which I used today at the lfs's to buy salt and a cute orange (or red?) spotted blenny. Also got pic.'s of family, some socks and dinner and movie gift cards. Doug is coming to visit tomorrow so I'll get his gift to me then, however he is getting me much needed live rock (adding a 80g refugium to my system) and he made a stand for it and he's going to help me plumb it in yay!

You two are sooooooo cute!!!!!!

I got nothing tank related per say but I did get some new tools that I could use to build tank related stuff. But I do get to buy myself some tank related stuff as a gift to myself and the wife. Got the wife an iPad so I got major browny points

Canada Post or one of their contracted assistants lost my Christmas present which turned out to be a coffee grinder.

I got $200 cash to spend on whatever. which I plan on getting a couple female McCosker wrasses with.

Tripod for my camera
LG 555C BluRay player
$20 Giftcard for PetSmart
2x $50 Giftcards for No Frills (always come in handy when there is a good sale on and you have no money til payday).
bunch of home made cookies (peanutbutter, choc chip and shortbread) plus two tins of home made nuts and bolts.

and my mother paid for more than half of my macro lense when I purchased it, so I made off pretty good.

My wife picked me up a suprize fish. She told me that i wasn't aloud to look in the tank on xmas eve. That was scary, i thought I ended up with a lion fish or something and i'd have a pile of bones left the next morning. I ended up sneaking down to the tank to take a peak, and saw a tang hiding under a rock, so i wasn't too worried anymore. I ended up with a bariene tang. It's gorgeous! I'm very happy she spoke to people and researched it. It gets big, so in 2 - 3 years I get another tank upgrade too! . haha. I also got a few gift cards for reef shops that survived about an hour into each store opening this morning.

Santa brought me a new pair of hockey skates as I was in desperate need of an upgrade. I also got a nice coat to go over my suits (which I also needed quite a bit as I seem to be acquiring new suits at an alarming pace...). Got some cash (probably no tank stuff with it though), some gloves, and a couple movies.

That's a great gift!
