    Nice to finally see you back. Thanks for your kind words. If I have the scooter down your way I'll stop in for a visit.

    OMG Scott I'm so sorry to hear bud. :cry: I have no idea how I missed this the past months. I have been so busy on my projects. You're in my prayers bud, you have given me such inspiration when I built my system.

    If you ever need anything bud just ask!

    Thanks a bunch. As for now I am fishless in the house. Maybe after a few years I can get back in the hobby. Think I need to fire up a freshwater tank to keep me happy. Been without fish in the house too long..... :-/

    Ya do it, a nice fresh water tank would be cool. Maybe a planted tank so you could run co2 and ph moniters to make it more interesting. :)

    Yea I would have to admit that a freshwater tank will not be the challenge a SW tank is... but then again without Mommy there anymore I need more time to take care of the kids and their needs.

    Thanks.... You just better make sure you budget not only for that 500g tank but for the cost to just operate it. My electric bill went down $290 when I shut the tank off and I'm not exaggerating any...I have the bills to prove it. Once you step over the 180g range things change a bit and it takes more equipment to keep up with parameter consumption.

    I wish you well in your future endeavors.
