Ok permit at 15 and then you have to drive with it for six months. Liscense at 16

Law: (dunno if it's just in Texas or everywhere)- New drivers cannot drive and use a cell phone for the first six months of driving with a licencse.

My Law (if it's improtant pick up the phone). also no cop no stop at stop signs.

How come when you get stopped for not stopping the cops call it a Califronia roll??? We're in Texas..

lol sharkey of course the sales person wants to sell the fish.

superswimmer-cell phone law here until 18 i believe. Also I normally do rolling stops if it some back road in a residential area and I'm absolutely sure that no one is coming. This is also because I am driving stick and i don't feel like pushing in the clutch and stopping and than putting it in first and going.

Nick you're going to get yourself killed with that "no cop no stop" idea of yours. Maybe the roads are less crowded in Texas, but I've had a few friends die like that.

Hmm, I remember that I did a couple rolling stops during my driver's test b/c I thought it would not be that big of a deal... Oopps, had to retake! Besides that law was implemented by states only to get grant money from the federal government...

The deal is that on the driver's test you have to be a "good boy."

in md it is based on points so everytime you went through a stop sign you would loose points resulting in failing.

Me, I'm dishonest. You can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to watch out for.

Great movie!

I love that movie!

If I could be any three things in this world-

A pirate
A wizard
A Jedi

Obviously not at the same time or it would take away from each other.

Well, the manager at my lfs said they should, but mine started to give each other a hard time, but now they don't as much. I guess my question should have been- Do yellow, and powder brown tangs usually get along?
Ross, let me inform you of something that will truely benefit you (and your tank) in the future...I happen to know the manager you speak of, and let's just say I feel it necessary to ask you to PLEASE talk to me before buying anything he advises. I will even give you my phone number so you can call me before agreeing to his sales pitch (just don't tell him I'm saying any of this(!). Really...his motives are far different than mine--and most people who really care about this hobby, which is why you've ended up with a shark and two tangs in a small tank. I'm not going harshly criticize you for this--we were all in your place once, but you will find that researching anything before you put it in your tank is more than wise--it's critical. A simple search on RC or even google will give you way more info than you'll ever need.

Kayla whats going in the cube?
Well, I was first planning on moving the SHs (along with adding another pair or two and some pipes), but now I think I'm going to make it a strictly SPS/LPS tank, and make the 46 bow the SH/softie tank. The 20 high where the horses are now will house my skunk pair and their monster anemone, which will finally have a whole tank to itself. The whole project will be a lot of work (and, sigh, money), but I love planning/setting up tanks.

Kayla your setup sounds awesome, and similar to mine. My two 20Ls will be a stricly SPS/clam tank, and an anemone/clown/zoanthid tank, with the 135g becoming a fuge/softie tank. Mine will be less work though, with a total water volume of 230 gallons

Not if they are allowed to take over the entire tank.

Kayla that sounds like a good plan. Are you going to get pipes in the 46?

sounds awesome! I hope you don't find the 20L to be too limiting in size for your SPS and clams as they grow out though--I used to think a 46g was plenty of room!

Then again that darn anemone does take up half of the potential real estate...

Well, with the 20L SPS, I will either frag them, or they wont grow to massive size until I go to college, when I will sell the whole thing. Or, if I like them better, I will just move some into the anemone tank, and see how they do.
