Holy !$$! that sucks. Your a brave lady going with acrylic again. Not that you should worry, I'm sure that envision does great work. But I'd be paranoid!

I have had that problem from time to time. For me, reef keeping is more than just the corals and the fish, it's the set up, equipment, the different methods and constant change. To be honest...

No one will trade for him, this is the NFL. It's just not going to happen. Utilize what he brings to the team and hope you can sign him. Against the skins he had 10 total touches. That's not...

Actually, Mike Brown is an excellent safety. Unfortunately he can't stay healthy. Archu let a guy get a TD sucks. Tommie Harris has had 1 bad injury that has lingered, and he's played through most of...

Start fixing the O-line, that's # 1. FS/SS #2. WR # 3. Personally I would like to see the team take a chance on McNabb. He wants out of Philly, and I think they want him out. I'm sick of watching the...

Sure you can. But if you introduced it to the display already you know that there is a good chance a few swam off, right? From what I've read they are pretty good swimmers.

Is it an acrylic tank? Personally I don't like the idea of the halides over the brace if it's acrylic either. Glass is another story...but it's still a waste of a lot of light, especially if the bulb...
