|  lfs bill never small$$
I just got back from the lfs, and i hate how i can never walk out of there with spending less than 80$. Well its really hard in my lfs they are like and internet shop at internet prices, and only saltwater stuff.along with frag swaps. they have everything you can find on the net for just as cheap. i was goin to get a 1 new uvl actinic bulb. 20$ . but instead i walked out with the bulb, all the supplys i need to start a copepod culture,(phyto aint cheap), and a pound of rock rubble for some frags. Do you all experience the kid in a candy store thing?lol
now i got to tell the wifey  she aint home yet,lol and tell her that i have a 800 gph overflow coming, for my new sump,LOL |
