Lol, You might be right. With so many people buying them they might have to resort to just grabing whatever's laying around! :lol:

I could imagine whats in there:
A million pieces of acrylic to "make a tank out of"
Powerhead
A bunch of airline tubing
chopped up pieces of PVC
Burnt out bulbs for MH
mics power cords for old ballasts
Bio-Balls/filterfloss
used HOB filter that is no way usable
aquarium background
Plastic plants

Could you imagine how much free advertising this is getting them? lol!

[Kentanner11]

or better yet a million bumper stickers/buttons/ T-shirts and other promo products from their company!

[Satori]

For some reason, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation comes to mind where Grandma just wrapped up whatever was within reach. I hope it's not another cat! :lol:

It was beautiful, we drove up MT Hood and picked about 6 kinds of wild berries, we went to sauvie island and the Columbia, I saw the places where my favorite hops grow, we drove to Canon Beach .

It was beautiful but my Son and I wore jackets and pants all day long,it was chilly and everyone else was running around like if it was summer or something(my Wife was one of them)

FYI, I'm about the furthest you can get from a "tree hugger" however the clear-cutting ****ed me off severely.
