Sounds familiar... Only it was a motorcycle... and then I got in an accident... Now I have a fish tank

Yeah, she can't argue that a fishtank is safer than a bike. Not cheaper: just safer!

My Triggerfish is in love: Not with a female Trigger, but my MP40's!

On the left-hand end of the tank I have two MP40's mounted quite close together. I had one of them running on the Reef-Crest Random mode and the other on Constant Speed mode. The other day I switched them both, (in sync), to Long Pulse mode and ramped up the volume.
My Trigger has totally fallen in love with the new setting. He used to like to ride the surf from one end of the tank to the other. Now, he just hovers right in front of the impellers and doesn't move except for feeding time. He reminds me of an old man in a new vibrating Laz-E-Boy! I hope his infatuation wears off as he is now very boring: Just sits there with a stupid-looking grin on his face. I might just as well hang a plastic fish on fishing line just like the Submarine Ride at Disneyland.

Maybe a mate will take his mind off of it. I was thinking of getting him a girl friend anyway.

Can't you have it ramp down every hour or something like that? Give him a bit of a startle every now and then? That's hilarious man.

There's not much to see; just a fish who doesn't move. His body stays motionless and his dorsal fin goes like hell.

I'm thinking I should squirt some ice water into the powerhead every once in awhile and shock him out of his stupor.

...or all of a sudden shut it off and watch him crash head first into the wall lol. Seriously tho, is there something in that Powell water that makes fish go all loopy? Might just have to put him and Doofus in a special padded tank together.

Not sure I want any frags from you Lance... might be some contagion in the water... a new sickness called... Powell Disorder.

On a side note anyone know if anything is happening with that frag swap?
