Thanks all for the welcome- D, thanks for letting me check out your setup. I have the fever, but after way too many impulse buys when i was younger, I am waiting to find a decent deal on a setup. (preferably someone who went crazy at the start, spend ridiculous amounts of money, and nuked everything in a couple days)---
I may email Dave @ concept to get an idea of the cost on an a tank and stand, as everyone has great things to say about those guys. I just do not want to get TOO far into this and have the $$$ run out to not be able to do it all right.
To quell my frenzy I am going to try my hand at a litle Pico Vase tank, as the cost is minimal, and while i am losing my ming over the bigger tank sitting while the water starts getting cleared, I'll have somehting else to practice on!
