There is also a guy doing (I think) exactly what I had planned... I'm not sure tho yet..

I actually PM'd someone regarding that type of thing, and he said that $15 rule is something they would have changed. Heaters, are well, pretty much a required piece of equipment in a tank, so it should have to come out of your budget, things like thermometers, glass cleaner (scrub brush or mag float) are the $15 and under type of items that fall under this rule.

Heater for free may be a good idea?

No, you can't buy them for less than $21-22 on J&L and they are even more in most LFS/Petstores.... They stay as an item to deduct off the budget.

Little dog looks like it needs a hug and a treat! What a sweety for sitting for photos.

I've got a few entry fee's in.... If you are mailing cheques, make sure to get them out soon, as they need to be received by the 15th. Thanks!
