Wouldn't have helped you... Kris gets it right at the airport when it comes out, and called on it for me. It was gone already. I was proud of him, and immediately used it to counter his 'But we don't have room for a tank that size!!!' general argument...

It IS nice of him... but I think it falls in the general category of wallet protection in the long run...

Yes, do know about the online version. I would rather buy the paper copy as I don't read it all at once. Plus, it's harder to circle ads with pen and fold pages down on the computer monitor

Wow, that's nutz.

I just upgraded to a 135, and it came with all the special equipment I wanted/needed ( ) for not so much more than that. IMO, when buying used, it isn't really worth it unless it comes with the right stuff.

I put an ad in Uncle Henry's (but I think it runs online only) for my Sedona 55 and FOWLR- K says I can't keep 3 tanks ... He researched online and figured out how much tunzes and MH were goning to run our electric bill up... LMAO Apparently, it's cool for one in his book but not three.

I'm actually not as upset as I thought I would be- I spend so much time checking out the new tank that I am pretty much ignoring my old ones except for maintenance anyhow. When (if) the FOWLR goes, however, it will be terrible. I sure like those fish, especially the marine betta.

Well, one can go into the reef because it's generally reef safe with some exceptions... The rest will have to probably go to the fish store I trade coral frags to for store credit. Sucks... I hate being a semi-responsible adult sometimes. I can see his point though, which makes it worse. At least the babies I raised are safe in Bar Harbor with a happy home. I have a sneaking suspicion though that in the next 10 years, I get my FOWLR back in some way, some time. :evil: I might give in for now, but I know he liked the FOWLR too!
