Default vacation....

I am going away for 10 days in February and am looking for someone who can watch over my tank while I am gone. Big Als will do it for $75.00 per visit. That seemed a little pricey to me. Does anyone know of a service or someone with reef experience who does this any cheaper .

Thanks,

Jim

That sounds pricey. If you are not too far away I will do it N/C. Just expenses if there are any.

Not quite true Richie. My tank is very well taken care of. I constantly monitor it, and if something needs doing it gets done right away. I just eschew excessive testing. (there I finally get to use that word )

I operate a small business leasing and maintaining aquariums. I'm in the Yellow Pages under Chinook Aquatics.
I'd be happy to discuss your needs.

Was I in the closet...? Actually, I didn't want it to be known that I'm doin' it for a living 'cause folks would expect me to know what I'm talking about, and that would really take the enjoyment out of doin' what I do...
