Sorry to hear... but if they got finger prints.... you should be set.

On a happier note... I am going to set up my SH tank in about a month.

I'll shoot some specs out soon.

Do you guys think 65 watts over a 20 gallon is okay for macro.... or would you go with a 110 watt?

I only want macro growing in the tank and if 65 watts is enough to keep macro healthy, and to make the tank look bright enough.... than I would get it.

What do you think?

Yea but this is for my 20 gallon SH tank. I want it to look somewhat nice.

But do you have a link of this light?

It's actually a bulb that he is recommending, but the fixture costs maybe $10 more.

Hmmm thats pretty neat.

But I do not need that much growth... just enough light to keep the macro alive and grow somewhat.

Thanks though.

Whats the best way to transport LR... I am picking it up today (I think) and I'm not sure how to do it. I don't think it's too long of a drive. Any advice? or tips?

I saw Chronicals of Narnia tonight. It was pretty good. It had a good story line. I wish there was a tad bit more action though. I might read the books soon


I came home and found a trailer for the new Pirates of the Caribbean.
It looked..... I don't know.... different? Bad guy boss with tentacles? Some giant shark or something? What is the story line?

Anyways... I have to give it some credit.....


help resize please
