HAHAHA! So true!

Its not funny though when the police show up at your door at 6 am to bust you for a grow op and even when they realize you just have a large reef tank, they are still total dicks.

Or catching the swat team in the alley behind your house, and being told, "don't mind us, we're um, just practising...."

LOL...seriously? Did this happen?

I was ****ed when the cops came to my door that morning based on the fact that my neighbors "knew I was growing it" and I had a slightly high electric bill...if they had sent a swat team with no evidence, I would have really lost it.

LOL...my neighbors had even told the police I had offered to sell to them!

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

Default growop stores

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.
