I think I just offended my new neighbor but I couldnt resist

[stlouisguy]

He and his wife came over to pick up their mail we had gotten for them and the husband went over to look at the tank. He studied it for about 2 minutes then turned to me and said;

"That looks great, is it saltwater?"

to which I responded;




















"Nope, those are freshwater corals."



If look from my wife could kill, I would be dead right now


oh well................

[stlouisguy]

I usually just make those comments in my head, this one just slipped out.

At least I didnt follow it up with

"Heres your sign"

[zt444a]

That's really funny because of this thread that has been up the last couple days!

Gawker #1
Do those plants in there grow by themselves ?
Are they real ?
Are they moving or is the water moving them ?
Are these fish painted ?
How are these fish growing ?

Gawker #2
No they put them in there.
No they are fake.
Man, ....I don't know.
Yes them fish aren't real.
They have black lights in there.

People who claim to have been doing FW before I was born consistantly point to the big African peacock tank and go... dang the those saltwater fish are awesome.
