    It seems, Bleach is the ladies weapon of choice against fish owners. It's actually a little ridiculous how many times I have heard of this happening.

    That is a shame. Did you see that one with the kid who snatches some coral and knocks down a whole coral display?

    Indeed...the stuff you buy at the local store is heavily diluted...some of the commercial grade stuff will burn your skin almost instantly.

    One of my buddies has an 800 gallon (plus several more hundred in the sumps refugiums etc). I was over at his house and said, "I've seen people put fake treasure chests into their tank before, but this is the first time I've seen someone go for the East River motif". LOL....his son wasn't trying to be malicious but I doubt all of those matchbox cars were good for the tank.

    i dont know if its in the water but my wife just theatend me 2 days ago with the bleach thing. after i went to the garage and stewed over it for some time i finaly told her that if she touches my tank that would be the end of our marrage. needless to say she has been a little different the last two days. personaly i think its more a jealousy thing!!

    The person who bleached locally to me was a male.

    How this got to be a female thing, i have no idea. Goes along with the concept that hobbyist are all males. :angry:
