hmmm where do you get this book? might save me trips 2 or 3 times a week to my moms to find a hidden snail, make sure the salinity is the same(i've explained it dont really change ) or reprogram her controller cause it magically resets.

I had all this money sitting in the bank doing nothing so I thought "What's an easy way to get rid of all this cash?" So I got into reefing.

I saw the coloring of a flame angel and the looks of a lion fish and thought to myself that I had to have one. So I went out and got a 125 gallon made and have been hooked ever since.

Started out in FW when I was 5 or 6. My uncle owned a pet store and gave us a tank. I always admired the colors of the SW tanks though. Later in life when I started traveling, I got to experience swimming/snorkeling/diving with the same fish that I saw and loved as a child at his store. Conveniently, I fell in love with a guy who had SW tanks previously (but none at the time). Then I came across a deal I couldn't refuse this past Christmas. Just before Christmas, I had arranged for a neighbor to move his tank into our new house the day before our move-in day. They had buyer's remorse (preferred their FW tanks) and needed work done on their company website. Just so happens that I do web design, LOL. It was an awesome trade. We are hooked for sure and so is our cat!
