Hey, could someone PM me Tony's address...I thought I had it in some of my old emails...apparently I was mistaken...... :confused:

...or if you see some guy driving around in the south in a white pickup apparently cursing and lost...... :lol:

flag him down.... :redface:
(I'm pretty sure I remember his neighbourhood)


Mitch :mrgreen:

check your PM

Thank you EVERYONE for helping. There's just no way I could have done this without you guys.

So far, the casualty count is 2. :cry: My cleaner shrimp ealier today, and, unfortunately, my fairy wrasse suddenly just expired. :frown: :cry: I'm despondent .. I don't know what happened. After he was in the tank all settled in he just freaked out. Jumped a few times ... so I turned off the room lights to see if he'd calm down but instead it looks like he just died. :cry: Heart attack?

It was fun Tony. Glad I could have helped out a bit. :smile:

I echo Mitch's thoughts with some additional things. It was nice to meet some new people , and to see that other bald headed guy play plumber. It was also nice to kibbitz with the ubiquitous Quinn. As a bonus I got to ride in a Murano, which I consider the world's fifth ugliest car. :razz: :biggrin: Did the ritteri settle back in :question: and also that nervous Tang :question: I am sorry and a bit surprised to hear about the wrasse's sudden death. It keeps reminding us that we don't know everything.

Hey Tony,
I would also like to add that I was happy to help. I know what it is like moving a tank,extremely stressful. Glad everything turned out well. Sorry to hear about the casualties. It seems those wrasse's are pretty nervous, but surprising he just expired. How's the Ritterri doing?

Mike

Glad to help. Real bummer about the wrasse.

Thanks guys. Yes, quite disappointing. It was with quite a bit of anguish this morning that I discovered another casualty, Half-pint the yellow tang did not make it through the night. He was fine at 3:00am, that was the last time I saw him. This morning I could not find him and after a bit of looking I did find him sideways under the pipe organ.

He was a great little fish and I feel terrible that my selfishness is the cause of his (and the wrasse's) demise. I wish I didn't have to learn lessons the hard way but clearly the lesson is that tanks ought not to be moved; far better to tear-down (find homes for everything first), and rebuild later down the road. I'm sure a lot of folks are thinking, "kind of told you so" .. and .. you are absolutely correct, you were right.

...

Looking at things it's perfectly clear to me that I have too much in these tanks. So I'm going to have a fire sale. Anything you guys would like out of the two tanks? Let me know, because I'm totally open to offers for stuff right now.

Half Pint had some quality time with you, don't forget that.

I wish I could of helped longer but the basement was calling, rug was ordered and I had to get the sucker painted. worked on it til 2am and still have more to do.


Bob_I > Its not an ugly care :) it has nice Lines.


Tony --> Sorry to hear about the casualties. I just do not know what to say.

It was good to see those who I have met before and those who I just met.
