ROFL... How did I know to expect you to ask me, again, if I didn't update soon.
My whole thought process when I bought that skimmer on Boxing day was because of the BD sale at J&L... Thinking that it was only on that day (like most everything they had reduced) So I rushed to order it to save the $50 or so. Now, a month later and they are still "on sale" for the same bloody price.
Financially as well, this tank is really slowing down for me. Job change (during a rocky economy) and some mixed possibilities in the coming months, I figured I wouldn't be at a loss to sell the skimmer which hadn't even been turned on since purchase, lol. Figured the extra cash wouldn't hurt.
Basically the changes I want for this are going to be expensive, high priced, pieces of kit that I can take my time gathering (unlike the rushed Boxing Day purchase.. haha). I want this to be an "elitist" style tank. 100% SPS. Top of the line gear. Just the whole idea/look of the "Modern Day" tank.
