Light moving systems = reef + growop
Trimming our products = reef + growop
Pumps and plumbing = reef + growop(hydroponics) -- (air bubblers too for hydroponics!)
Chillers = reef + growop
Both smell good = reef + growop (who doesn't like the smell of sps!)
Polyp extension = reef + growop (polyps vs red hairs)
Heat venting/fans = reef + growop

Now I'm just going to seem like a big stoner, LOL

This is too funny when my cousin and I were building my sump room he said if some one didnt know any better they would think we were building a grow opp

dry wall coming out lots of framing big fans and wiring going in

I laughed at this, and the realized that a good portion of the stuff I need I by at a "hydroponic" store in town. Hey, $9 for a 48" HOT5 10K bulb , halide for cheap and even had kalk, some calcium chloride for a bit, bulkheads, and float valves.

So, now I have a bit of fear -- I shop at a grow op store, have really high power bills and funny coloured bright lights can be seem through my living room windows. Of course, my luck would be that the cops show up seconds after I spill kalk all over the floor.

Some friends of mine are into live roleplaying and, hence, have many props for such.

Including plastic guns.

One guy was in a hurry one day and needed the bag his props were in, so he dumped them onto the coffee table and ran out the door. He was in the basement suite of an apartment building with the blinds open.

The guy came home to the SWAT team playing "cops and robbers" in his kitchen. They were cool about it and gave him some tips to let people (mostly police) see that they are very obviously NOT weapons. It made for an interesting story, though!

Whatever! How many cops do you actually know personally? How do you know that there are no cops on Canreef? BTW, what's your address??

I personally know about a dozen as friends, and others through those.

Most of them are good folks, but even some of them have admitted to being jerks just because they had a bad day. And then there are the ones that are jerks just because they can.... but they're not generally very popular even with their own.....

Shortly after I moved into my house I had some local law enforcement knock on my door and ask about the lights in the basement and my power bill(my fish room has 1 large basement window). I pointed to the large fish tank behind me, and they still didn't believe me. After a short tour of the house, they said they put a BOLD note on my file stating they had investigated a complaint and what they found. They told me after that the only reason they didn't come busting in the front door is because 'no actual large scale criminal would be so stupid as to not cover the windows or attempt to hide their operation'.

Nice guys, but when I answered the door, 2 of them had their guns out, but pointed down.

First thing I did when I was setting up my system was to let the neighbours know what I was up to. I'm not so worried about the cops.... petty criminals and gangs looking for a easy mark. Oh one more thing I had a family member who was a cop, and he told me that the cops watch and record people going in and out of the stores that supply grow ops. FYI

Who cares? I know more lawyers than cops and trust me, I would be more afraid of lawyers if I were a cop than a law abiding citizen who ****ed off a few cops on a fish forum. If thats what you were insinuating.
