Hey Rick, Who was the first gay???       I know, I know, not that there is anything wrong with that.   I just couldn't let that on get by and yes I know it was crass but then I am an a$$hole.

Very nice Tony. Mine is pretty much the same but I have been toying with the idea of throwing in a few more. An amber whiskey perhaps.

The neat thing is that you can watch your fish and look at a few bottles while listening to the water gurgle all at the same time. Talk about your stress relief.

Hey Warren. Can I grab my diving gear and dive into your tank for some nice bottles?

I use to breed and sell tropical fishes to my local pet stores too. I had over 170 aquariums at my house at one time, now I'm down to 27 aquariums.

Sure Rick, Just watch out for the Piranha hiding behind the Wolf's.

I used to sit for hours and watch the fish in all the aquariums. Made pretty good money at it too.

Someone told you right Matt. Salt water aquariums are alot of work. Everything has to be perfect and if it gets off a little you can lose thousands of dollars worth of fish in a heart beat. Salt water fish are high dollar critters.

we have a 55 gallon salt water tank here, its not that hard to maintain, you just have to make sure to get your salt/water mixture right, and it takes a while to get one started we just feed ours, and out water back about once a week

but most of the saltwater fish are very expensive
