HELL!! I'm in my early 40's and don't sleep threw the night unless I have had an 14 hr work day. :twised:

Nothing against buying local, but ..... PM me if you like
I didn't find what I liked so I contacted my LFS and they brought in what I wanted.

thats cause you have a ton of glass in your shop that needs puttin together....im stil ltrying to decide my gameplan for my stand i have all the lumber just need to do it. and stop over thinking.

star light star bright first star i see tonight
if i may if i might have this wish i wish tonight....
let me wake to my delight

a complete 180 set up and shiny...lol

you know your going delierious when....
(or maybe its the epoxy fumes

Personally if I had to buy a controller new it would be the Apex Full system. Pretty much all the bells & whistles for around $500.

a ton of glass is close, I figure I have around 1000 gal worth of tanks.

Stop over thinking thing, told you that before it makes it very hard to get things done. :twised:

ive been looking at that via martins site im just unsure... i have to find a way to convince the boss you know lol.. not that she will care too much... and i can use the lite system on the 50 so it wouldnt be a total loss ive been staring at mod led site for the past hour

i know i know... i cant help it its my last build i want as close to perfection as i can get. other than other ppls tanks in future. just cant take as long with them lol

To be honest, although the Apex is a great system, I found it lacking in some control areas, so I decided to take a chance with DA.
Maybe I'm crazy, but $ to $, it works best for me. Only time will tell.
Maybe you'll see me here a year from now selling all my DA stuff :razz:

I missed this ...
Nothing like wakin' up from that lottery dream to find you still have to finish your build :rolleyes:

Hey, I forgot to check my ticket from Saturday ....

Woohoo !!!
I just checked my tickets from Saturday !!!!!! :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

Yeeeeeehaaaaw, I get to keep contributing to everyone else's retirement :sad:

Stupid thing is, I can still smell the air in Cancun hotel lobby. I guess it's the chlorine when I go to the LFS.

I smelled it when I was out shopping today .. forget where I was .. that clean, chlorine smell in the air .. I .. was .. somewhere .. can't quite remember where I was .. wasn't the public pool .. wasn't the LFS .. wait, is that the sea ? is that what a pool next to the ocean smells like .....

OK, it's been 4 years since we went away, so I'm going MAD :silly:

I just got pooped on by my wife for not eating and sleeping
Guess I should put the build on hold for a few hours :wink:

lol I dont blame her, what time was it there at that time? like 4am-ish? :lol: my wife would gimme a knuckle sandwich if I did that :wink:

:pound:

:lol:

:lol:

Why is it people feel the need to quote a big block photo multiple times?

Not sure Brad..... It is annoying though.

To drive others crazy :silly:

Mindy's gonna slap someone....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
:biggrin: this guy:wink:

When the cats away the mice will play. :wink:

I feel like quitting my job and opening up my own dayhome.

Our third childcare provider in the last 3 months has quit on me. I don't get it. Every single one of them LOVED my son.

Why is life so hard sometimes??

I was thinking the same thing... :lol:

you know your obsessive when your reading a user manual for products you dont even own to see if you can figure it out and understand its programming before you buy. and basing you purchase on this ..

this makes you a nerd... a smart nerd.. but a nerd! lol! jk

Some would call us all nerds:wink:

TOUCHE!!!!!

In my house I'm refered to as "the fish dork" I was going to a local fish auction a few years ago my son asked where I was going I told him " to hang around with some fish dorks" It kind of stuck since then . :lol:

ha fish dork..... i'm the keeper of the tanks in my house... no one touches the tanks... ever... unless i am there to supervise!

Man fish tanks make going on holidays a pain.....

that's why you make fish friends who will take care of your tank for you!!! lol

You've never met my cats!! Names are Razor n Chaos and for good reason. my black cat razor hates my bestfriend (who has known him since he was a kitten) and is always hissing and swating at him. I used to have this huge 8ft cat post and razor would sit on the top and swat people as they walked by lol i would be to worried about him hurting someone, not a good way to KEEP fish friends

goalie pads and a garden sprayer!!!

Lol Thx for that image flash lol I'm pretty sure if someone walked in the house wearing goalie pads my cat would run and **** himself lol

See... problem solved!!

VENTING: what ticks me off more then anything is people that say they will be somewhere at a certain time and show an hour later... like last night with the frag order... i said no later then 9:30 and that i'd be in bed as i am sick. 9:30 comes, my wife puts the frags in my tank so they live and heads to bed as last I heard he'd be there @ 9:10pm.... 10:20pm comes around, everyone in the house is in bed, lights are all off and the kid comes and rings the doorbell anyway, wakes up my wife and roommate(as i am out like a light on meds). WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE.....my wife then had to go re-bag all the frags and the kid didn't even say thank you, just muttered something and walked away. anyway i was supposed to pick up a coral for this kid tomorrow, but had to go today instead, still haven't heard back from the guy regarding his shipment or a thank you or anything.... so i sent him an e-mail and a pm stating if he's not here by 8:00pm tonight i now own the coral and he will get his $10 back. NOT COOL DUDE... and I will not do business with you again (as I know you will read this)

anyway people... if you say you are going to be somewhere... BE THERE... if your cell phone dies and you're an hour late and all the lights are off in the house... don't go ringing doorbells... or knock on the neighbors door becuz you can't remember what house it is (thanks for that btw you woke up their 2 kids)


UGH........ sorry... when I am sick i get bitchy....er.. then normal... but seriously... no common sense at all... no courtesy for others. END RANT...

What? That's ridiculous. I don't blame you for being ticked that's rude of them. +1 to you for keeping your cool I would've chewed him/her out

that vent was me chewing him out... and i sent him a PM as well.... i don't have much spare time.. i had cut off @ 8 for a reason... let him have til 9:30 as a favor then he pulls this crap.... NU UH.... not cool.
